Major financial earthquake in 2008❖ The global crisis of 2008 shook the banking system globally down to
foundations❖ Big old banks were on the brink of collapse and had to refinance one
way or another, just a few examples:❖ UBS AG (Switzerland) was bailed out by the Swiss government (6 bn
CHF)❖ Royal Bank of Scotland (UK) was partly nationalised (GBP20bn
injection in debt and equity)❖ Citibank (US) was rescued by the US government (USD45bn in two
tranches)❖ Lehman Brothers went bust (it took more than 5 years to untangle
all the contracts and liabilities)❖ The governments and financial regulators had to react

Tectonic shifts as a reaction
❖ Ample liquidity, low interest rates;❖ De-mediation;❖ Increased reserve and capital requirements, moving from Basel II
to Basel III:❖ subsidiaries❖ geography❖ non-core activities
❖ Personal responsibility of compliance officers❖ FATF and FATCA become more stringent❖ Nothing personal, just risk management

Ukrainian domestic events❖ Entangled interests of elites❖ Difficult to understand❖ Very few clean success stories❖ Endemic proverbial corruption❖ Problems in demonstrating source of funds❖ !!! some good news - NBU relaxed foreign
accounts rules

Implications for clients❖ some clients were asked to close their accounts❖ some banks stopped working with some countries particularly ex USSR❖ banks are asking to provide more information on themselves and more
detailed information on the transactions❖ stop list of individuals expanded❖ some banks do not have enough resources to tell a a difference between
Yanukovich and Yushchenko and sometimes block genuine clients and genuine transactions
❖ some banks assessed that potential revenues are much smaller than costs of compliance
❖ USD transactions are mostly under control❖ Fewer participants -> Less competition -> higher costs (transaction and
interest rates)

It is not all over❖ Further implementation of Basel III❖ Cleaning up of the banking system is not finished, licenses are
being revoked and corresponding relationships, particularly in USD are being closed
❖ Banks in the Baltics are continuing clean-up, closing client account, rising tariffs.
❖ Italian banking system is not healthy, Monte Paschi di Siena, case in point
❖ German banking system is not healthy, DB is under investigation
❖ There are renewed issues about the Greek banking system

What is next
❖ Crypto-currencies (Bitcoin, Etherium), mobile money, new non-SWIFT payment networks
❖ IT impact, total supply management (Blockchain)
❖ Further de-mediation (Direct payments, Peer to peer lending, crowdfunding)
