The Pillar 2 supervisory review process ensures that banks have adequate capital and liquidity to support all the risks in their business, especially with respect to risks not fully captured by the Pillar 1 process, and encourages good risk management.
This standard establishes minimum standards for margin requirements for non-centrally cleared derivatives. Such requirements reduce systemic risk with respect to non-standardised derivatives by reducing contagion and spillover risks and promoting central clearing.
Large exposures regulation limits the maximum loss that a bank could face in the event of a sudden counterparty failure to a level that does not endanger the bank's solvency. This standard requires banks to measure their exposures to a single counterparty or a group of connected counterparties and limit the size of large exposures in relation to their capital.
The net stable funding ratio requires banks to maintain a stable funding profile in relation to the composition of their assets and off-balance-sheet activities.
Drawing on established national and regional regimes for measuring, collecting and analysing information related to leverage in funds, IOSCO has developed a two-step framework – the “Leverage Framework' – to facilitate more meaningful monitoring of leverage in funds for financial stability purposes in a consistent manner across jurisdictions.
These guiding principles are intended to support the implementation of a sectoral countercyclical capital buffer on a consistent basis across jurisdictions.
The IAIS has issued the Insurance Core Principles (ICPs) as the globally accepted framework for insurance supervision. The ICPs seek to encourage the maintenance of consistently high supervisory standards in IAIS member jurisdictions. A sound supervisory system is necessary for the protection of policyholders and promoting the stability of the financial system and should address the broad set of risks within, and posed by, the insurance sector.
The Common Framework for the Supervision of Internationally Active Insurance Groups (ComFrame) establishes supervisory standards and guidance focusing on the effective group-wide supervision of Internationally Active Insurance Groups (IAIGs). ComFrame is a comprehensive and outcome-focused framework aimed at facilitating effective group-wide supervision of IAIGs, by providing qualitative and (in a future phase) quantitative supervisory minimum requirements tailored to the international activity and size of IAIGs.
In November 2019, the IAIS adopted the holistic framework for the assessment and mitigation of systemic risk in the insurance sector (“holistic framework'), for implementation from the beginning of 2020. The holistic framework is an integrated set of supervisory policy measures, a Global Monitoring Exercise, and implementation assessment activities.
The Application Paper on Recovery Planning provides guidance with respect to supervisory material related to recovery planning in the Insurance Core Principles (ICPs) and the Common Framework for the Supervision of Internationally Active Insurance Groups (ComFrame). In particular, it is related to the material in ICP 16.15 and ComFrame 16.15.a and 16.15.b (ICP 16 Enterprise Risk Management for Solvency Purposes), and is also relevant to supervisory cooperation and coordination arrangements set out in ICP 23 (The Group-wide Supervisor) and ICP 25 (Supervisory Cooperation and Coordination).
