ECB’s Buch: Europe’s banking sector has shown resilience

  • Preconditions for EDIS are now met, and moving forward will be important
  • Legislators should resist the temptation to relax banking regulation
  • Profit levels are relatively high, which provides a good opportunity for banks to invest in strengthening resilience

EDIS is European Deposit Insurance Scheme. It’s a proposed EU-level insurance system intended to protect depositors in case a bank fails, similar to how national deposit insurance schemes work but on a pan-European scale.

There is nothing on monetary policy here and this isn’t a euro mover.
