As standard setters roll out a massive reform package, we must be careful to also focus on the quality of the implementation of these reforms. This will ensure more effective supervision and hopefully prevent firms from taking on excessive risk and employing too high leverage in the future.

Both should take a more proactive approach when necessary.
