Dealing With Divergence - A Strategic Response To Growing Complexity In Global Banking Rules
To print this article, all you need is to be registered or login on Mondaq.com.
This report explores the challenges that 'Basel iv' and
an uneven regulatory landscape could create for banking in the near
future. It outlines the growing fragmentation of the global
regulatory framework for banks and identifies regulatory strategy
capabilities banks can develop in order to enhance the resilience
of their business models to this complexity.
Governments are now showing signs of a greater willingness to
diverge from international financial regulatory standards, most
notably the Basel framework. This will have very real implications
for banks trying to operate internationally, risking a substantial
increase in their costs and less predictability around the impact
of regulation on their overall performance and profitability.
In order to respond effectively, banks will need to develop
strong regulatory strategy capabilities to enable
them to navigate the complexity that regulatory divergence will
create. These capabilities can support commercial decision-making
and ultimately contribute to the creation of more sustainable
business models for banks.
