DIRECTIONS FOR ENSURING THE FINANCIAL STABILITY OF THE BANKING SECTOR UNDER THE CONDITIONS OF THE MARITAL LAW

Анотація

Full-scale aggression and the introduction of martial law became a severe challenge to the banking sector's stability. In such conditions, the banks need qualitatively new approaches to ensuring and maintaining financial stability. The article defines the prerequisites and mechanisms for maintaining the stable financial condition of banks in conditions of the unfavorable influence of external factors. We have identified the trends of changes in the number of financial institutions and the main problems faced by banks that ceased their activities. Analysis of the dynamics and structure of banking sector assets showed an increase in the share of state banks in the market, which can be explained both by a specific reduction in the volume of activities of private banks and by the intensification of investment operations of state banks with state securities. The increase in the share of non-performing loans and the application of extension programs harmed banks' financial results. Banks' regulatory capital was sufficient to cover currency, credit, and operational risks. Despite the decrease in regulatory capital in the first half of 2022, the banking sector found resources for its gradual recovery in the second half of the year. According to the authors, the directions for maintaining the financial stability of the banking sector under martial law are: adequate prudential supervision aimed at identifying existing or potential vulnerabilities of the banking system, searching for effective risk management mechanisms, ensuring access to refinancing, maintaining competition in the banking sector; improvement of credit risk management, which involves a qualitative assessment of the potential amount of losses, identification of sources of their coverage, a balanced policy of debt restructuring and effective communication with borrowers; further expansion of the use of digital tools and service channels. An equally important direction is the involvement of banks in the recovery of the economy and the implementation of state and international stimulus programs.
