Program Description

In a time of global uncertainty and heightened risks, the financial sector faces unprecedented challenges that demand the attention of regulators and supervisors. Geopolitical tensions, economic turbulence, tariffs, currency devaluation, and the deconstruction of the global development sector may threaten worldwide financial stability.

They will explore:

  • Key global developments, deregulation, and risks impacting financial stability

  • The impact of reduced international aid for emerging markets and developing economies
  • Shifting global priorities and major policy changes
