Domestic Stability Buffer Council

The Domestic Stability Buffer is a capital buffer that the big six Canadian Domestic Systemically Important Banks (D-SIBs) must set aside to cover potential losses during periods of financial stress. The Centre’s Domestic Stability Buffer Council, chaired by Jeremy Kronick, provides OSFI, industry participants and key economic policy voices with an independent assessment of the direction for the buffer in pursuit of OSFI’s mandate of contributing to public confidence in the Canadian financial system.
