In particular, the conference features opening addresses and keynotes from:
Elke König, Chair of the Single Resolution Board: “European Banks are resilient and it is up to all of us to work hard to ensure the overall resilience of the system, by ensuring banks’ resolvability. That will be important for financial stability going forward.”
Jan Reinder De Carpentier, Vice-Chair of the Single Resolution Board “We have a number of key milestones ahead of us, including reaching the deadlines for full resolvability of SRB banks and the build-up of the SRF to its target level by the end of 2023”.
Jens Henriksson, President and Chief Executive Officer, Swedbank “One of the key lessons from the global financial crisis was to strengthen the banks through increased capital buffers. Today’s topic is the resolution framework. But sometimes we miss the most important factor. A sustainable bank is a profitable bank. Sustainable profits is the best way to avoid costly resolutions”.
François Villeroy De Galhau, Governor, Banque de France “In order to properly implement the resolution principles we have rightly adopted in Europe, we need less rigidity and more risk-based-fairly-balanced approaches”
