Supervision of Systemically Important Financial Institutions (SIFIs)

The supervision of **Systemically Important Financial Institutions (SIFIs)** is a complex and high-stakes endeavor that requires specialized regulatory frameworks beyond standard microprudential oversight. This advanced course provides a detailed examination of the international policy agenda—driven by the **Financial Stability Board (FSB)**—for mitigating the "too-big-to-fail" problem. Participants will learn the methodologies for SIFI designation (G-SIBs and D-SIBs), the application of enhanced supervisory standards (e.g., higher capital buffers, stricter liquidity rules), and the crucial requirements for developing credible **Recovery and Resolution Plans (RRPs)** to ensure that SIFIs can fail safely without taxpayer bailouts.
