Rising risks to the inflation outlook and rapidly changing views about the likely pace of monetary policy tightening have been dominant themes affecting financial stability. Juxtaposed against financial stability risks is the Russian invasion of Ukraine, which will exert a material drag on the global recovery and pose significant uncertainties to the outlook. The severity of disruptions in commodity markets and to supply chains are creating downside risks by weighing adversely on macrofinancial stability, inflation, and the global economy.

This webinar will discuss the shockwave of the war in Ukraine on the financial systems’ resiliency. It will also delve into the risky embrace from the deepening sovereign-bank nexus in emerging markets, looking at the transmission mechanisms. A presentation on the rapid growth of Fintech, with the vulnerability and challenges for financial stability conclude the presentations. 

The webinar will be held in English.

Participants are encouraged to ask written questions to the presenters using the webinar’s Q&A feature.
