Regional Financial Conglomerates : A Case for Improved Supervision / Thorvardur Tjoervi Olafsson, Julia Majaha-Jartby.

For financial institutions to expand across borders without undermining regional and global financial stability, supervisory agencies must develop the capacity to collaboratively and collectively handle crises.
