Ep. 166: Assessing the Impact of Geopolitical Events on Supervisory Objectives
Toronto Centre PodcastsShow Notes
Geopolitical risks are emerging from multiple sources, with complex, varied, and country-specific effects. Understanding how these geopolitical events will affect supervisory objectives is a challenging task. Supervisory authorities therefore need a clear framework to identify relevant geopolitical events, assess their impact on objectives, and guide an effective response.
This Toronto Centre Note and accompanying podcast provides an overview of an effective assessment framework. It explains each of its elements, explores the tools available for conducting assessments, and outlines how to develop a proactive supervisory response.
Speaker:
R. Barry Johnston, Program Leader, Toronto Centre
