Financial Services Reporting
A lender of last resort is a financial institution, usually a country's central bank, that provides emergency funds to banks or other financial institutions that are in distress and unable to obtain necessary funding from other sources. This role is critical during times of financial crisis, as it helps stabilize the banking system and prevents the collapse of financial institutions that could have broader negative effects on the economy and global markets.
