Stress testing is here to stay.
Banks have invested a huge amount of resources into their stress- testing capabilities in the last five years, but the requirements from the regulators continue to evolve. They face increased regulatory scrutiny, along with market pressure and Board attention towards higher standards in strategic planning and stress-testing.
Scenario-planning requirements, both business-focused and regulatory stress-testing are also becoming more and more challenging. Therefore, banks will need to have a range of capabilities to perform scenario-based planning effectively and fully integrate it into the business.
Oliver Wyman has developed a unique set of toolkits designed to help respond to the supervisory expectations.
