Insights into the shadow banking system

Natacha Isslame-Rocher and Henri de LA GUERONNIERE

Financial Stability Review, 2018, issue 22, 35-48

Abstract: Shadow banking is taking an increasingly significant role in financing the economy. For a long time, it was poorly understood. However, efforts were stepped up to better measure and oversee the shadow banking sector and it is now the focus of significant attention. Against this backdrop, the Financial Stability Board developed a regular shadow banking monitoring exercise tailored to the level of risk associated with non-bank entities and their intermediation activities. Thanks to this work, we now have a more precise picture of shadow banking in France, which notably sheds light on the importance of investment funds. Several regulatory initiatives are also being carried out concurrently to ensure that shadow banking risks are properly regulated and supervised.
