Implications and Challenges of Basel II in EBRD countries of operations
On 11 - 12 September 2008, the EBRD organised a conference on implications and challenges of Basel II in the the EBRD region. Preparations for the international standard Basel II require several years of planning and costly changes in the risk management systems of commercial banks. It is important for countries—regulators as well as commercial banks—to plan well to benefit fully from the implementation of Basel II.
Funded by SECO/ the Swiss government, the Conference ‘ Implications and Challenges of Basel II in EBRD Countries of Operation’ will bring together representatives from EBRD countries of operations and commercial banks that have already implemented Basel II with other countries that as of yet have not implemented it. The speakers for this conference represent regulators and commercial banks that operate in EBRD countries such as Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, Czech Republic, Poland, and Slovenia.
