Abstract

The European Deposit Guarantee Scheme (EDGS) is the missing pillar of the banking union. The 2014 Directive has introduced several innovations that are described in this chapter. Among them, the most relevant is the requirement that the deposit guarantee schemes (DGS) should be funded ex ante by raising risk-based insurance premiums. However, that Directive is still aimed at harmonizing the national guarantee schemes, rather than pointing to some integration among them. Looking forward, the best way to proceed is not by creating a new European institution, responsible for deposit insurance, but rather by expanding the scope of the SRM, thus going toward an integrated resolution and deposit insurance agency.

Another institution playing the same stabilization role is the central bank, which provides liquidity as the lender of last resort to illiquid banks. For a comprehensive review of the theoretical literature addressing the financial instability of banks and their prudential regulation, see Freixas and Rochet (2008).

Very interesting analyses of the instability of wholesale securities markets are provided by: Brunnermeier and Pedersen (2009), Adrian and Shin (2010), Duffie (2010).

See European Commission (2010) for a survey, showing the heterogeneous features of the DGSs across the EU member states.

See Baglioni and Marotta (1993) for a review of this literature.

Some risk indicators (CET1 ratio, leverage ratio, LCR and NSFR) are taken from the Basel III regulatory framework. For further details, see EBA (2015a).

See EBA (2015b) for details.

Bilateral agreements remain an available option to DGSs, along with the multilateral framework. See EBA (2015c).
 
12
The same Directive seems to acknowledge this point in art. 10(6), allowing a member state to reduce the target level for the financial means of a DGS, under the condition that those means are more likely to be used within a resolution procedure than for paying out depositors (see Sect. 6.1.3).

See Colaert (2015), Gros and Schoenmaker (2014), Allen et al. (2011).
 
14
See European Commission (2015). A two-tier system, relying on national DGSs and on a European reinsurance scheme, has been previously suggested by Pisani-Ferry et al. (2012).

Unfortunately, the above-mentioned “Five Presidents’ Report” does not even mention those two issues, despite the support it provides to the view that an EDGS should be introduced as matter of priority into the agenda of the European policymakers.
