Basel 3.1 and Strong & Simple - the new capital and liquidity blueprint - S6E6
This episode, host Tessa Norman is joined by PwC Partner Michael Snapes and Director Gordon Kemp, to deep dive into the evolving UK prudential banking landscape, navigating the impacts of the PRA’s Basel 3.1 final rules and proposed Strong and Simple regime.
Our expert guests unpack the details of the PRA’s recent publications, sharing insight on the UK’s journey to implement the Basel 3.1 rules and the development of its Strong & Simple framework. We highlight the expected impacts the changes will have on banks - both large and small - and key strategic considerations for banks as they strike a balance between capital requirements and their growth aspirations.
Our guests also discuss the broader competition and market dynamics of these regulatory changes, both in the UK and internationally, and explore how firms can navigate the challenges and leverage the opportunities presented by these regimes.
