On 7 April 2020, KPMG R.G. Manabat & Co. hosted Episode 4 of the Staying Connected: Managing Through Crisis webinar series entitled Implications of COVID-19 on Banks’ Risk Management.

In this episode, the responses of some regulators in the ASPAC region to the crisis, and those of other banks in other markets were discussed.  Speakers emphasized that aside from the short-term impacts, banks and other lending institutions need to consider the mid to longer term impacts of the pandemic to their businesses as well.
