How Shifting Interest Rates Impact Banks

Registration for this event has been closed.

Hosted by Citi Solutions Center Poland

Paul Samuelson, the first American to win the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences, wrote in 1945 “The banking system as a whole is not really hurt by an increase in the whole complex of interest rates. It is left tremendously better off by such a change…A typical single bank, taken by itself, is not really hurt by an increase in the whole complex of interest rates. It is left tremendously better off by such a change.”

Samuelson’s writings set the context for this discussion of recent market developments. In response to the Covid-19 pandemic, central banks cut interest rates rapidly, and rates remained close to zero for a time. Subsequently, these banks hiked rates in response to increasing inflation.

Global Association of Risk Professionals (GARP®) Poland Chapter would like to invite you to a presentation “How Shifting Interest Rates Impact Banks.” The goal of the event is to relate this important topic to recent market developments. Some of the questions covered will include:

• How are banks managing interest rate fluctuations?
• How are rate changes impacting net income and capital?
• What are the lessons learned?
