The article examines modern approaches to the organization of the risk management process in Ukrainian banks. Requirements for modeling banking risks are growing in modern conditions. Recent financial and economic crises have demonstrated the devastating effects of unforeseen risks. The dynamic development of banking technologies and products requires a detailed analysis of the possible consequences of their implementation. Contingency losses require a probabilistic study. The buffer for the absorption of these losses is the capital of the bank. Losses from anticipated risks include the creation of reserves. The basis of modern approaches to risk modeling is the recommendations of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision. The National Bank of Ukraine clearly regulates the requirements for the organization of risk management systems, but does not interfere in the construction of models. Banks develop internal policies, procedures and risk management models independently. In recent years, domestic banks have made significant progress in modeling and stress testing of risks. Each bank carries out a comprehensive assessment of at least the following significant types of risks: credit risk, liquidity risk, interest rate risk of the banking book, market risk, operational risk, compliance risk, and other significant types of risks. The issue of validation of risk assessment models by external experts is very relevant. Such specialists may be scientists who conduct research in the field of finance, banking and economic and mathematical methods of modeling complex systems. The interaction of scientists and practitioners has a double effect. Scholars are able to provide useful advice on the features of models and tools for assessing risks, systemic risks and financial stability of the banking sector at the macro level. Specific models of banks lay the foundations for current research topics of teachers and graduates. The authors of the article share the experience of model validation, analyze the current state of the banking system and the risk profile of domestic banks. Bank reporting data are considered in the dynamics and analyzed in terms of specific risks. The obtained conclusions are compared with the Risk Map of banks of the National Bank of Ukraine.

The study presents the problems of risk management of a commercial Bank as the most important element in the overall banking management system. The relevance of the study is due to the current economic and political situation in the country, as well as the instability of market conditions, which significantly complicated the risk management system in commercial banks, which contributed to the deterioration of their financial condition. The processes taking place in the global financial market in recent years have a significant impact on the banking system, significantly increasing Bank risks and reducing the financial stability of credit institutions. Differences are highlighted that reflect the priority aspects in assessing the risk management of a commercial Bank from the authors ‘ point of view. Risk management strategies in credit institutions are considered. A comparative analysis of the methodologies used to assess the risks and capital adequacy of commercial banks in Russia and abroad has been carried out, and features of their use have been identified.

The article is devoted to the analysis of scientific approaches to the interpretation of the concepts of "state regulation", "state regulation of banking", "banking regulation" and the measures on which the state regulation of banking is based. An analysis of the scientific literature in various fields allows us to conclude that scholars ambiguously interpret the term "state regulation of banking." Most often, state regulation of banking is seen as a system of measures by which the state through authorized bodies regulates the activities of banks. The domestic legislator considers the concept of "banking regulation" as one of the functions of the National Bank of Ukraine, which is to create a system of norms governing the activities of banks, determine the general principles of banking, banking supervision, liability for violations of banking legislation. The main purpose of banking regulation is security and financial stability of the banking system, protection of the interests of depositors and creditors. The importance of state regulation of banking as an integral part of public policy is emphasized. Effective state regulation of banking activities should ensure stable and uninterrupted operation of the banking system, guarantee the provision of quality services by banks to depositors and borrowers and protect their interests. Preventive and protective measures on which the state regulation of banking activity in Ukraine is based are considered. Preventive measures should be implemented through the approval of mandatory regulations. The application of protective measures should provide protection against the already threatening situation for the bank. Attention is also paid to the forms in which state regulation of banks by the National Bank is carried out. Such forms are administrative regulation and indicative regulation.

The Relationship

AbstractRegulators should ensure the smooth functioning of the system and promote regional development. Making the health of financial institutions is therefore a prerequisite for a sustainable economic development. This paper contributes to the literature on the relationship between the financial stability and growth within the area of one country. This implies that institutional, legal, and cultural factors are more adequately controlled for and financial markets are more accurately bounded. Using a rich sample of Italian banks over the 2001–2012 period, this paper addresses whether different measures of financial distress affect economic development of labour market areas in Italy. Results show that the financial stability has a positive effect on local economic development, robust to alternative variables capturing financial vulnerability. The presence of spatial effects is tested showing that better financial conditions of the banking system in neighbouring areas have a detrimental effect on an area’s growth.

The Impact

The article covers the problems of the functioning of the banking sector of Ukraine during 2018-2021, as one of the main sectors of the financial market and the national economy as a whole. When analyzing the state of the banking sector, regularities and general trends in the functioning of the banking sector of Ukraine have been established, and appropriate calculations have been made. The impact of global financial crises on the activities of banking structures, which must operate in conditions of constant financial instability, is described. Today, the whole world, including Ukraine, is on the verge of a global financial and economic crisis. This raises the question of whether Ukrainian banks have the necessary margin of resilience to vulnerabilities to the financial and economic crisis. In recent years, the functioning and development of the banking system has been characterized by increased financial stability, the level of bank capitalization, liquidity, some improvement in asset quality, reducing risks in banking, as well as the presence of positive structural changes. Today, Ukraine's banking system operates in a complex socio-economic and legal environment, most of which - macroeconomic instability, irrational structure of the industrial complex, the crisis of science and technology, imperfect fiscal and monetary policy, low level of effective demand - complicate sustainable development banking sector and increase competitiveness. In conditions of instability, intensification of turbulent processes, the development of the banking system requires new innovative approaches to determining the mechanisms of effective functioning and stable development based on a system-synergetic approach, which led to the choice and relevance of the chosen topic of this scientific article. Efficiency of banks is a multicomponent, multifaceted, multidimensional system characteristic that depends on many factors and is an effective indicator of performance of functions and achievement of goals and objectives of banks development provided financial stability based on financial stability and dynamic balance, achievement of multiplicative and synergistic effects.

Abstract Insurance companies are facing major challenges that point to the need for control process and risk management. Risk management in insurance has a direct impact on solvency, economic security, and overall financial stability of insurance companies. It is very important for insurance companies to adequately calculate risks to which they are exposed. Asset liability management (ALM), as an integrated approach to financial management, requires simultaneous decision-making about categories and values of assets and liabilities in order to establish the optimum volume and the ratio of assets and liabilities, with the understanding of complexity of the financial market in which financial institutions operate. ALM focuses on a significant number of risks, whereby the emphasis in this paper will be on interest rate risk which indicates potential losses that may reflect in a lower interest margin, a lower value of assets or both, in terms of changes in interest rates. In the above context, the aim of this paper is to show how to protect from interest rate changes and how these changes influence the insurance market in Montenegro, both from the theoretical and the practical point of view. The authors consider this to be an interesting and very important topic, especially because the life insurance market in Montenegro is underdeveloped and subject to fluctuations. Also, taking into account the fact that Montenegro is a country that has been making serious efforts to join the EU, it is expected that insurance companies in Montenegro will strengthen their financial position in the market even using the ALM traditional techniques, which is shown in this paper.

Credit risk management is central to the success or failure of a banking institution because banks earn the greatest quantum of their interest income from interest on loans which represents a critical component of a bank’s profitability. Therefore, any carelessness with regard to credit risk management automatically results to creating huge nonperforming loans which often prepares the grounds for bank distress or failure. In the 1990s and specifically in 1995, 50 percent of 120 banks became technically distressed, as they were characterized by poor management and weak liquidity ratio. For example, in 1995, the ratio of nonperforming loans to total loans was about 33 percent compared to about 5 percent in 2015, and the average liquidity ratio of banks in 1995 was 0.49, against 58.18 in 2015. Also the loans, to deposit ratio in 1995 was 58.4 and 73.21 in 2015, while the number of banks with average liquidity ratio of less than 30 percent was 50 in 1995 against 1 in 2015. Distress persisted in the Nigerian banking system in the 1990s with dwindling profitability and the erosion of shareholders’ equity. In 1995, the adjusted shareholders funds was – N8791.1million against N3,240 billion in 2015, while the capital to total risk weighted asset ratio was about 67.18 percent in 1995 and only about 17.66 percent in 2015. In 1995, the ratio of nonperforming loans to shareholders’ funds was about 496 percent against about 13 percent in 2015. These major performance indicators showed that there was improved credit risk management and bank management effectiveness after 1995 until 2015. The expo-facto research design was employed for the study and the result showed strong positive relationship between credit risk evaluation management and bank management effectiveness. The study was not exhaustive, and further research could examine the relationship between regulatory efficiency and the performance of deposit money banks in Nigeria. The board of directors of banks should always take measures to avoid lending arrangements over and above the repayment capacity of borrowers to reduce the creation of nonperforming loans.

The article is devoted to the study of theoretical and practical aspects of the risks that accompany the activities of economic actors in the cryptocurrency market (both mining and trading) at the micro­ and macro­economic level at the beginning of the third decade of the XXI century. The risks associated with the functioning of economic entities in the market of cryptocurrency coins and such risks are the following: lack of legal regulation on the cryptocurrency market and insurance of owners of assets stored on crypto wallets; use of malware in order to access assets rotating on the cryptocurrency market; hacking attacks on cryptocurrency wallets and exchanges in order to steal cryptoassets; loss of assets deposited into accounts of cryptocurrency exchanges in case of bank-ruptcy or closure of these exchanges; loss of the password used to access the crypto wallet; loss of a secret personal PIN code, which is the key to access funds deposited into the crypto wallet at the exchange and used to transfer assets (cryptocurrencies or fiat currencies) to other crypto wallets or a bank card; erroneous transaction due to one number or letter mistake when transferring from one crypto wallet to another or error (when entering bank card number), when transferring funds from crypto wallet to bank card, a mistake of one or more numbers is possible and funds will be transferred to the wrong addressee, in both cases it is impos-sible to cancel the transaction and funds are lost irrevocably; significant volatility in the value of cryptocurrencies, because of which an investor can go bankrupt. It was revealed that the functioning of the cryptocurrency market is also associated with risks to the national economy and security: monetary policy (reduction of control over monetary circulation due to the replacement of national fiat currency with cryptocurrency coins and the loss of the central bank monopoly on the emission of money and reducing the country's income from seigniorage due to mining cryptocurrencies), financial stability (because of the threat of the outflow of deposits from the banking system and replacing them with investments in cryptocurrencies, the possibility of replacing traditional banking, as well as the possibility of avoiding taxation and shadowing the economy) and national security. It has been proven that the intensive activity of an economic entity associated with mining, trading, investing or other economic activities in the cryptocurrency market requires significant theoretical and practical training of the individual and patience and faith in the future of cryptocurrency market activity because of the probability of losing savings invested in cryptocurrencies or investments.Keywords: risk, cryptocurrency, cryptocurrency market, crypto coin, crypto wallet, Bitcoin, Ethereum, cyberattack.
