This timely book offers a comprehensive study of the mechanism that gives effect to foreign bank resolution actions. In particular, it focuses on how the legal framework for the recognition of foreign bank resolution actions should be structured and proposes detailed legal principles on which effective frameworks should be based. Shuai Guo conducts both normative and positive law analysis to investigate the status quo of available legal instruments that are used to recognise foreign resolution actions within three representative jurisdictions: the European Union, the United States and mainland China. Building on the traditional legal doctrines of private international law, financial law and insolvency law, this book proposes ten principles that should be applied to foreign bank resolution actions, offering innovative ideas for further research and study. Additionally, it fills the gap in scholarly research on the issue of cross-border bank resolution and formulates rules that would facilitate effective resolution actions across borders to achieve a global orderly resolution for banks. Recognition of Foreign Bank Resolution Actions will be key reading for researchers and students in the fields of private international law, finance and banking law. The technical legal issues addressed throughout the book will also appeal to insolvency and banking lawyers, as well as policy makers within the field.

Developing an effective framework for cross-border resolution is a key priority in international regulatory reform. Large bank failures during the global financial crisis brought home the lack of adequate tools for resolving “too-big-to-fail” institutions. In cross-border cases, misaligned incentives and lack of robust mechanisms for resolution and cross-border cooperation left some country authorities with little choice but to take unilateral actions, which contributed to the high fiscal costs of the crisis and resulted in disorderly resolution in some cases

The United Kingdom (U.K.) bank resolution and financial crisis readiness arrangements are sound but with opportunities for continued and accelerated enhancements. The U.K. authorities’ individual and collective crisis readiness—including with other major jurisdictions—continues to improve. Mid-2022, all major U.K. banks and the authorities will issue the first public statements about these banks’ resolvability. This is supported by a comprehensive special resolution regime (SRR) and resolvability assessment framework (RAF) for banks. Yet, there is space—and a need—to further enhance the SRR, including its application to central counterparties (CCPs), and to introduce one for insurance companies. Furthermore, elements of the deposit insurance system and firm-specific resolution decision-making should be strengthened, and implementation and reputation risk addressed.

The IMF conducted a technical assistance to Central Bank of Seychelles (CBS) and provided policy and legal guidance to the CBS on the drafting of legal amendments that will provide an adequate institutional framework and effective powers for bank resolution, and thus contribute to financial stability, while limiting the use of public funds and addressing moral hazard concerns. The mission provided recommendations on corrective actions, emergency liquidity assistance (ELA) and bank resolution frameworks to enhance their alignment with international best practices, FSB’s Key Attributes of Effective Resolution Regimes for Financial Institutions (KAs) and good practice.

This paper first describes the architecture for resolution and crisis management. Second, it outlines the resolution policies and operational arrangements currently in place. Third, it discusses the measures taken by the authorities to ensure resolvability. Fourth, it refers to cross-border cooperation issues in resolution. Finally, it describes frameworks for resolution funding and deposit insurance. The U.K. financial safety net is underpinned by strong institutional arrangements. The financial safety net is made up of Her Majesty's Treasury, the Bank of England, the Prudential Regulation Authority, the Financial Conduct Authority, and the Financial Services Compensation Scheme. The authorities are encouraged to continue their efforts to operationalize, test, and refine the crisis preparedness framework, while exploring mechanisms to make it even more robust.

On June 28th 2012, the small island of Cyprus became the fifth government to request an economic bail-out from the Eurozone after losing access to international capital markets. Less than a year later, a €10 billion second rescue deal was agreed upon — an unprecedented agreement that bailed in creditors of Cyprus' two largest banks, and triggered an economic crisis that the nation still struggles to recover from today.This resourceful collection of essays provides a thorough and in depth analysis of how Cyprus reached the point of failure and what lessons this experience holds for future economic crises. The various perspectives collectively address unanswered questions, including whether the bail-in can be considered successful, why the recession was less severe than expected, and what conclusions can be drawn about stress-testing exercises across borders.Focusing on one of the (proportionately) largest crises in financial history, the case study will prove essential to policy-makers and politicians, especially in the euro area.
