Overview
There is deep and widespread dissatisfaction with the structure and performance of bank resolution mechanisms. This conference will present recent theoretical and empirical research and examine alternatives to current systems. Areas covered include:
- Contingent convertibility of bank liabilities: alternative specifications; contingent convertible bond pricing; the potential impact of contingent convertibility on banks’ cost of capital, capital structure and lending behaviour
- Bank resolution mechanisms within the European banking union
- Deposit insurance, no-bailout commitments and credible resolution mechanisms
- Network and liquidity externalities in bank failure
- Living wills for financial institutions
The academic coordinators for the conference are Gregory Connor (NUIM) and John Cotter (UCD). We are grateful to the Science Foundation of Ireland and the Irish Institute of Bankers for their generous support of this conference.
