Mastering advanced macroprudential supervision for capital markets is crucial for proactive risk management and safeguarding the broader financial system.

This intensive training course builds upon foundational knowledge of macroprudential supervision, exploring advanced analytical techniques for assessing interconnectedness, contagion channels, and the build-up of systemic vulnerabilities within capital markets. We will examine the nuanced application of a range of macroprudential tools, including sector-specific interventions, liquidity regulations, and macro stress testing frameworks tailored to capital market dynamics. Participants will learn how to integrate diverse data sources, utilize advanced modeling techniques, and develop effective strategies for early intervention to mitigate systemic risks and enhance the resilience of the financial system, aligning directly with central bank mandates for financial stability.
