Katalysys recently hosted a roundtable in collaboration with UK Finance and representatives from the PRA, where we discussed the practical challenges firms are facing in preparing for implementation. Based on those discussions and our ongoing work supporting several institutions with Basel 3.1 readiness, we have produced a white paper focusing on the key areas of implementation that carry the greatest risk.
Hosted by UK Finance, Katalysys is pleased to announce a training programme, “The Basel Breakthrough: Future-Proofing Regulatory Reporting for 2027”, aimed at equipping banks and financial institutions with the knowledge, tools and strategies to navigate the forthcoming Basel 3.1 reforms.
Liquidity stress testing remains a cornerstone of effective risk management and regulatory compliance for banks. However, a persistent challenge lies in interpreting what constitutes a “severe but plausible” stress scenario, particularly in the context of evolving depositor behaviours and increasing digitalisation of banking.
This paper aims to address this challenge by examining how stress scenarios can be robustly calibrated using empirical evidence backed by statistical methods, with particular focus on liquidity stress testing informing the Internal Liquidity Adequacy Assessment Process (ILAAP).
