The banking industry is fraught with risk at the moment. For the first time in recent memory, liquidity, interest rate, and credit risks are all elevated and converging. While many banks will have to fight to survive and justify their independence if they do survive, other banks are very well positioned to absorb these risks and take advantage of their weaker competitors. Tomorrow’s winners of the next cycle in banking will be born today. This discussion will include an assessment of the banking industry and will focus on how the best positioned banks can prepare strategically to exploit the opportunities that will inevitably present themselves to them.
