Guidance to Assess the Systemic Importance of Financial Institutions, Markets and Instruments: Initial Considerations - Background Paper

Preliminary FSB, IMF and BIS guidance including conceptual and analytical approaches to assessment and possible form for general guidelines

Results of a survey of country authorities conducted by the Financial Stability Board, International Monetary Fund and Bank of International Settlements. The survey had quantitative and qualitative components. Quantitative: countries were asked to indicate if a particular sector is systemic, and whether individual institutions in that sector are systemic. They were then asked to rank the five most important factors contributing to their classification of systemic relevance, both before and after the onset of the current crisis. Qualitative was made up of three parts: i) how countries assess systemic relevance; ii) the design of a framework to assess systemic relevance; and (iii) where relevant, how financial crises have informed approaches to identifying systemic relevance. Survey results informed the preparation of a subsequent guidance.
