- Third ESRB annual conference - 27/28 September 2018
Session 3: Macroprudential policy in recovering economies
Major central banks have used unprecedented monetary policy measures in the aftermath of the global financial crisis. With monetary policy transmission mechanisms normalising and economies recovering, some of the major central banks have started to increase interest rates and have also announced scaling back of non-standard monetary policy operations. One important aspect in the design of a macroprudential policy is how it interacts with monetary policy, the current low interest rate environment and investors’ risk aversion. Panellists discussed how macroprudential policies can be used to contain potential related vulnerabilities and identify related challenges.

Session 2: Identifying and assessing risks in the shadow banking system
The EU shadow banking system has grown significantly in recent years. This reinforces the need to develop a framework to monitor risks in this part of the financial sector. Such a risk monitoring framework is a key part of a broader macroprudential strategy. This session discussed potential financial stability risks and key elements which should be considered when monitoring risks and vulnerabilities in the shadow banking system.

Session 1: International perspectives on macroprudential policy
Global financial integration entails many benefits, but it can also contribute to a build-up of systemic risk within the financial system due to the pro-cyclical nature of capital flows. Addressing the vulnerabilities of financial globalisation leads to new policy challenges for macroprudential authorities. In this session, speakers will present their views on potential risks related to international financial integration and the policy options available to mitigate these risks.
