remains the foundation of institutional resilience
- Experienced subject
matter experts are critical for identifying emerging threats and adapting
quickly

possess extensive supervisory tools including stress testing and scenario
analysis
- Excessive focus on
compliance can distract from genuine risk management
- Overly rigid
requirements may encourage inefficient balance sheet decisions
- Boards should focus
on strategic oversight rather than administrative compliance
- Future reforms are
likely to refine rather than replace existing frameworks
