Kathleen A. Scott, counsel in the financial institutions group at Arnold & Porter, writes: As most readers are aware, much has been written lately about systemic risk due to the current economic situation. But the H1N1 Flu outbreak poses a systemic risk of another sort. While increasingly electronic, the world's monetary system, such as in the area of international payments, still needs people to run it. And, if those people are sidelined by their own illness or that of their family, or cannot get to work because the government has shut down businesses or roads or ordered a quarantine, a collateral consequence could be the disruption of the international payment system, which could make an already fragile global economy even more precarious, and leading to a systemic risk different than those currently being discussed, but just as relevant and capable of having a real impact on the banking system.
