Financial Stability Review 2009

In addition to the traditional overview of recent developments in the Belgian financial sector, the Financial Stability Review (FSR) contains a part devoted to an analysis of the resilience of financial infrastructures. The review is completed by three conceptual articles which deal with financial stability issues related to extreme events and financial system governance, remuneration schemes in the financial industry and factors which determine euro area bank CDS spreads.

The additional half-yearly publication — which is only available in French or Dutch — offers a statistical overview of recent developments in the Belgian financial system, in the form of a series of tables and charts for credit institutions, investment firms, insurance companies, pension funds and public issues of securities.
