Recovery & Resolution Planning

The Asian Institute of Chartered Bankers in collaboration with PwC Malaysia is proud to present the first in a series of thought leadership on recovery and resolution planning (RRP) for Malaysia.

Stability and trust is an integral part of local, regional and global financial systems. However, in today's increasingly interconnected world, failing financial institutions (FIs) can threaten the stability of multiple financial systems. Costly public bail-outs of 'too-big-to-fail' FIs during the 2008 financial crisis highlighted the need to address the moral hazard posed by systemically important FIs.

Around the world, RRP is emerging as the way forward in ensuring FIs are able to recover or restructure their operations in times of distress, while placing minimal stress on financial systems and the government for funding.

In our report, we take a look at how RRP works and the different practices across the globe, and aim to bring home key insights to foster discourse around the question: How can RRP be tailored for the Malaysian context?
