Capital Management
The impact of the financial crisis has led the market and risk regulators to focus on capital and risk management. The Basel Committee requirements and the insurance regulators (Solvency II), and the stakeholders requirements ( creditor investors) to be sure of the solvency and the financial institutions quality, will lead the senior management to have a lower degree of freedom in the management and the ability to use the capital.
As a consequence, a forward- looking and proactive approach to the capital management becomes a crucial “issue” both for leading large financial institutions and also for the financial institutions that wants to remain independent.
