- The webinar focused on the modelling and reporting recommended for decision-based support of a bank’s market liquidity risk and funding liquidity risk, focusing on both the stock and flow approaches to balance sheet measurement and management.
- Finally, the webinar discussed a detailed approach to liquidity risk models and reporting, including the following points:
- a. Liquidity ratios
- b. Cash flow gap reports
- c. Funding
- d. Concentration reports

PART TWO:
Speaker: Selwyn Blair-Ford, Head of Global Regulatory Policy
FRSGlobal went on to draw on lessons learnt from implementing liquidity solutions in banks and other institutions particularly in the UK, where many of the new standards would be live in June of this year. FRSGlobal shared some of the practical problems firms encountered and gave an “on the ground view” of what the implementation and transformation process looked like. There were a variety of approaches used to tackle the challenges brought about by the new liquidity regime, which this webinar explored to give the audience an insight into which were the most successful and why.
