Systemic risk mapping

Systemic risk mapping is a tool designed to identify and assess risks to the stability of the financial system. It is made up of 6 risk pillars, broken down into criteria and assessment indicators.

SYSTEMIC RISK MAPPING

The evaluation of indicators under the risk mapping is conducted by assigning a scoring from 1 to 5, reflecting the magnitude of risks, based on quantitative criteria (levels, trends, volatility and distribution of values) and qualitative criteria (expert judgment).

  1. Macroeconomic risk : this category includes risks induced by economic factors likely to affect financial institutions and financial markets.
  2. Real Estate sector risks : covers risks arising from trends in real estate market activity and the risk of a bubble forming.
  3. Liquidity and market risks : covers the risks of bank under-liquidity and pressure on bank collateral, as well as the risks of concentrated or shallow capital markets, and the risks of dispersion or excessive valuation.
  4. Non-financial agents risks : it covers risks linked to the financial situation of households and non-financial companies.
  5. Soundness of financial institutions (banks) risk : covers the risks that can impact banks' strength and resilience (risks linked to asset quality, profitability, solvency, market risks, ALM risks, etc.).
  6. Financial market infrastructure : assesses the resilience of systemic MFIs to credit, liquidity, operational, legal and systemic risks, and is based on the principles laid down by the BIS.
