Abstract

Regulatory frameworks — often introduced or changed in the wake of the outbreak of scandals or crises — have generally sought to align private incentives with public interest. A well functioning financial sector therefore needs the underpinning of well designed and effectively implemented regulations, along with sound public policies. This chapter seeks to identify the vulnerabilities pertaining to the financial sector. It focuses on those peculiar to banks that have required governmental regulation. Capital adequacy and safety of payments systems — which have received privileged attention in international co-operation — are reviewed, along with other complementary prudential approaches relating to financial intermediation.
