Description
Summary:The ongoing global financial crisis is rooted in a combination of factors common to previous financial crises and some new factors. The crisis has brought to light a number of deficiencies in financial regulation and architecture, particularly in the treatment of systemically important financial institutions, the assessments of systemic risks and vulnerabilities, and the resolution of financial institutions.

Deep reforms are therefore needed to the international financial architecture to safeguard the stability of an increasingly financially integrated world.
