「金融監督政策の方向性について」
一連の金融危機に際して公的資金導入等厳しい選択も迫られたが、結果的に金融再生法で破綻手続きの道筋が出来たことは評価できる。これからも金融再編や異業種による銀行業参人、電子決済等の新たな技術による業務などの動きなど注視しながらも積極的に見守っていきたい。
"Direction of Japan's Financial Oversight Policy"
Amidst a succession of financial crises, Japanese banks were hard pressed to decide between requesting infusions of public funding or maintaining an image of solvency. Waiting too long to disclose their situations, a number of them failed. One positive outcome, however, did emerge from this in the establishment of the Financial Revitalization Law, which provides a way for financial institutions to file for bankruptcy. In the future, continued financial restructuring will be needed, along with the introduction of other entities into the banking sector and the employment of new technologies, such as electronic account settlement.
