Why Jill Cetina’s latest presentation is a must-read for bankers
Amid rising economic uncertainty and market volatility, Jill Cetina—banking expert, economist, and faculty member of the Certificate of Bank Treasury Risk Management (BTRM)—delivered a powerful webinar on April 15th addressing how U.S. trade and fiscal policy may impact banks in 2025.
From the growing permanence of tariffs as a revenue source to rising recession and stagflation risks, Cetina provides a comprehensive breakdown of what banks may need to prepare for—especially in slides 21 through 23.
Key Takeaways from the Deck
- Why official sector interventions may no longer work as expected
- The importance of liquidity, stress testing, and understanding capital buffers
- How loan pricing, not volume, becomes critical
- The growing need for customized stress testing, including a 6% 10-year Treasury yield
- Strategic insights on asset selection and CECL scenario adjustments
This presentation reinforces the urgency for banks to review their capital plans and interest rate risk sensitivity, and to prepare for a new reality where regulation may not equal risk mitigation.
