FSB Adds Bank of Communications to 2023 G-SIBs List, Drops Credit Suisse and UniCredit

Subscribe to our newsletter

The Financial Stability Board (FSB) has published its list of 2023 global systemically important banks (G-SIBs) using end-2022 data and applying the assessment methodology designed by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS).

One bank, China’s Bank of Communications, has been added to the list of G-SIBs that were identified in 2022, and two banks, Credit Suisse and UniCredit, have been removed. The overall number of G-SIBs has decreased from 30 to 29.

FSB member authorities apply requirements to G-SIBs that are higher, in terms of additions to the minimum standards that apply to all internationally active banks under the Core Principles of the BCBS. These requirements include a higher capital buffer, total loss-absorbing capacity, resolvability, and higher supervisory expectations.

A new list of G-SIBs will next be published in November 2024.
