The Swiss government on Wednesday selected Stefan Walter, a 59-year-old German national who was director-general of the European Central Bank for the last decade, to head the Swiss financial authority known as FINMA. Swiss authorities feared the collapse of such a major lending institution could further roil global financial markets following the failure of two U.S. banks last year. The troubles at Credit Suisse threatened to unhinge Switzerland's position as a leading financial market, and the takeover left the country with only one internationally important bank: UBS.

Walter, who has a master's degree in international banking from Columbia University in New York, will start the job on April 1, the Swiss government said.

Photo: Arne Dedert/dpa (Photo by Arne Dedert/picture alliance via Getty Images)Germany's financial regulator on Tuesday warned that the country's banking system is undergoing a real-life stress test amid the current volatility, also predicting significant weakness for the commercial property sector. Pressures facing the sector have intensified as many central banks push up their benchmark rates, leading to specific market dislocations. Mark Branson, president of the German regulator BaFin (Federal Financial Supervisory Authority), told CNBC that Germany has seen the same impacts from higher rates as many other nations around the world. He said that the German banking system "has taken some pain," but highlighted that there is "no systemic danger" and the financial system has managed to absorb the impacts of higher rates well. However, problems can arise when banks take on additional risk and fail to keep up with a continued and sharp increase in rates.
☆ Germany calls for global regulation of crypto industry

FRANKFURT, Dec 14 (Reuters) - Germany's top regulator this week called for global regulation of the cryptocurrency industry to protect consumers, prevent money laundering and preserve financial stability. Branson said a "crypto spring" may follow what has been a "crypto winter" but that the industry that emerges is likely to have more links with traditional finance, further increasing the need for regulation. "Now is the time for serious cryptocurrency regulation," he said. Regulation of the industry has been loose and patchwork. Last month he said in an interview on the ECB's website that "not all crypto business models are serious".

FRANKFURT, Nov 14 (Reuters) - The president of Germany's financial regulator, Mark Branson, on Monday called on banks to increase their risk provisions while earnings are strong. Branson, speaking at a conference in Frankfurt, praised U.S. banks for setting aside "as much as they could". "Now is the time" for banks to set aside funds for a rainy day, while they are earning well, he said. Some did increase their risk provisions somewhat.
