Join Moody's and the Kenya Banking Association to the upcoming Webinar on Early Warning Frameworks, a crucial topic in current times, with significant implications for your day-to-day work.
Non-performing loans can signify considerable problems for banks, economies, and corporations alike. One reason for high NPL ratios is high interest rates, that result in added financial burden for borrower, making it more difficult for borrowers to repay their loans. Beyond interest rates, there are several other factors such as lending standards, sector specific issues, changes in the economic and regulatory environments, etc., that can contribute to high NPL ratios.
An effective EWS can help banks anticipate and mitigate these risks, enabling them to take corrective action before loans become non-performing. By proactively managing their loan portfolios, banks can maintain their financial stability, protect their profitability, and contribute to the overall health of the economy.
We will focus on three main areas:
- Regulatory Expectations: explore what regulators expect from an effective Early Warning Framework, helping us to better navigate the current landscape.
- Best Practices: Insights on the better practices for creating an effective Early Warning Framework.
- Implementation Challenges: We'll delve into the key obstacles and mitigations in implementing an Early Warning Signals Framework, with a focus on aspects deriving effective signals and process automation.
This session will also serve as an interactive platform to discuss your own challenges and needs, fostering a collaborative environment.
