This webinar explored how international banks respond to a rise in their non-performing loans and those of emerging market borrowers.

ADB's Regional Cooperation and Integration Division Director Cyn-Young Park discussed how international banks respond to a rise of their own non-performing loans and those of emerging market borrowers; and how these reactions change depending on their perceived risk exposures and risk management practices (such as the share of US dollars in their balance sheet liabilities). 

James Villafuerte of ADB's Southeast Asia Department moderated the discussion.
