Framework conditions and
current challenges:
Dynamic credit growth, regularly tightening capital requirements (e.g. Basel IV, RBC Directive) and rising risk costs are turning equity into a bottleneck factor for many savings banks and cooperative banks.
CONFIDUM considers both the strategic allocation based on capital market scenarios and the operational optimization in individual areas of use in the sustainable and profitable allocation of equity. Methodologically, the present value effect as well as the P&L effect is analyzed.
Optimum use of equity is a key cornerstone of CONFIDUM strategy projects. In addition to the latest regulatory know-how and capital market scenarios, CONFIDUM has extensive experience in the area of RWA optimization in the client business. Together with its cooperation partner ACM Alpstein Capital Management AG, CONFIDUM has also developed structured access to AT-1 capital for regional banks.
