Bail-ins and bank resolution in Europe
This invitation-only event will feature a presentation by Thomas Philippon of a report on bail-ins and bank resolution in Europe.
Failed financial firms should not be bailed out by the taxpayers. Europe, unfortunately, has a weak track record of following this principle of good governance and sound economic policy. The banking union, with its new approach to supervision and resolution, is meant to improve this matter. The new Geneva Special Report on the World Economy presented at this event reviews the resolution side of the banking union.
This event is only open to Bruegel members and a small number of external experts.
