FSB 2025 resolution report

The Financial Stability Board (FSB) has published its 2025 resolution report outlining global progress in implementing resolution reforms for banks, insurers and financial market infrastructures, and setting priorities to further strengthen global resolution frameworks and crisis preparedness in 2026. The report confirms that foundational resolution frameworks are largely in place and highlights progress of ongoing work to strengthen operational readiness, including the publication of a practices paper on transfer tools, the formation of a task force on bail-in execution and information sharing on funding in resolution. It also provides a summary of results from the resolvability assessments for global systemically important banks (G-SIBs) and central counterparties.

Looking ahead, the FSB plans to conduct a peer review on public sector backstop funding mechanisms, and to publish a practices paper on funding resolution to support operational planning. The FSB is also planning to launch a strategic review of its crisis preparedness activities. In parallel, the FSB has released an updated version of its good practices paper for crisis management groups (CMGs) which was first published in 2021. It identifies good practices that have helped CMGs to enhance their preparedness for the management and resolution of a cross-border financial crisis affecting a G-SIB. The update includes a supplementary note setting out implementation observations following the 2023 bank failures on communication with host authorities not members of a CMG.
