Central banks and financial supervisors

The central banks and financial supervisors section of the Finance, Insurance and the Economy subsite covers monetary authorities, prudential supervisors and market regulators: how scenario, stress-test, statistical and resolution records crosswalk to NGFS scenarios, BCBS climate principles, FSB key attributes, CPMI-IOSCO principles and IMF data dissemination standards, read as evidence and never as supervisory judgement. Every artifact of the area carries a UNI (Unique Nexus Identifier), which identifies and never certifies.

01Scope

Central banks and financial supervisors: what the area covers, and what it leaves to others.

The sectors and industries section of Finance, Insurance and the Economy. Scope as the area context entry states it (PROPOSED).

In scope 5

  • Climate scenario and stress-test exercise records referencing NGFS versions
  • Macro-prudential and financial soundness indicator series references
  • Market infrastructure resilience obligations (PFMI, cyber guidance)
  • Statistical dissemination metadata (SDDS Plus, SDMX)
  • Resolution planning references (FSB Key Attributes)

Out of scope 3

  • Monetary policy decisions
  • Supervisory ratings or enforcement
  • Market surveillance

Jurisdictions No jurisdiction note is recorded for this area yet; jurisdiction narrows what applies and never implies that a Nexus profile satisfies a law.

02Nexus Standards that apply

04Restricted compatibility profiles

No closed standard is named for this area.

Closed or paywalled standards appear by name and link only; any compatibility profile of one is built on simulated data and kept on protected pages until an institutional arrangement with the issuing body is recorded. Nexus Standards is not affiliated with, endorsed by or certified by any standards body named here.

The working group may name closed standards later; they would be listed here by name and link only.

06Systemic couplings

4 couplings to other areas and subsites.

Each coupling names the mechanism that links this area to another; select a card on the canvas to trace it. Mechanisms are stated in the context bank (PROPOSED).

07Readiness

What each pathway can read from this area.

GCRI Canada evidence pathway

GCRI Canada

Scenario and statistical series cited by version and release become readable as evidence for GCRI Canada systemic-risk research under its own rules.

Open the GCRI Canada evidence pathway

Recognition pathway

The Global Risks Forum (GRF)

A supervisory data programme that publishes metadata and attestations gives GRF a record trail to consider; nothing here represents supervisory views.

Open the Recognition pathway

Capital pathway

The Global Risks Alliance (GRA)

Scenario references and statistical baselines can be cited when GRA assesses capital readiness under its own rules; no supervisory approval is implied.

Open the Capital pathway

Each institution decides under its own rules what it reads as evidence; no pathway is an approval, a readiness statement or investment advice.

08Data and feeds

4 sources, with provider, licence and delivery path.

Sources the area reads or proposes. Delivery follows GRIx first; a source is shown live only after an owner decision admits it for public pages.

Every feed · pending admission

No legal register row admits any of these sources for live display on public pages yet, so nothing is read from them here. A register row that exists records the source for the governed GRIx path; admission for public pages is a separate owner decision.

  2. Crosswalk from NS-10 clauses to the BCBS climate principles and PFMI
  3. SDMX mapping for financial soundness series
Liaison targets · 5
  • NGFS liaison sought
  • Basel Committee on Banking Supervision liaison sought
  • Financial Stability Board liaison sought

  • CPMI liaison sought
13Open problems

3 open problems an expert would start with.

  1. Scenario variables are not linked to hazard models with traceable versions, limiting physical-risk translation.
  2. Supervisory climate exercises use different scenario vintages, so results cannot be compared across jurisdictions.
  3. Financial soundness series revise without public correction records.

18Learn and apply

Where Central banks and financial supervisors is taught, worked on and run.

Risk Academy disciplines that teach Central banks and financial supervisors, with their courses; the GCRI Canada, The Global Risks Forum (GRF) and The Global Risks Alliance (GRA) subsites that carry those disciplines; and the Nexus Foundry systems the standards name.
