March 16, 2008 Developing a Framework to Assess Financial Stability: Conference Highlights and Lessons Bank of Canada Review - Spring 2008 Olivier de Bandt, Céline Gauthier, Pierre St-Amant Central banks are still defining their approach to financial stability and are at an early stage in the development of useful models.

Among the highlights reported here are the discussions centred around three proposed frameworks: a contingent-claims-analysis framework, a semi-structural framework, and structural financial-stability models. Participants also reported on their experiences with stress-testing under the International Monetary Fund's Financial Sector Assessment Program and discussed the implications for financial stability of linkages among payment, clearing, and settlement systems.
