Institutional Diversity in Banking
This book offers a comparative analysis of how post-crisis restructuring has affected the evolution and prospects of small, locally-oriented banks. The discussion focuses specifically on “small” European countries; that is, countries with diversified banking systems, with a strong presence of cooperative and other forms of local banks. Such countries include highly developed economies like Italy and emerging European economies, such as Poland. The authors stress the unique importance of local banks in generating credit for both households and firms, and hence in contributing to overall economic growth. Chapters cohere around the argument that although smaller banks fared better than their larger counterparts the recent financial crisis, they have been directly and indirectly discriminated against in post-crisis restructuring schemes, and, as such, face many operational and strategic challenges today. The contributors are a distinguished group of researchers with expert knowledge of the competitive positions of and opportunities for locally oriented banks, who combine theoretical and empirical perspectives on these topics.

Corporate Structure and Banking Resolution
This book provides a legal analysis of the regulation of bank-based financial conglomerates from a structural, commercial, and regulatory perspective. It includes a comparative analysis of the regulation of bank-based financial conglomerates from the standpoint of the three jurisdictions that established a distinct regulatory model, i.e. Germany, the UK, and the US. At the same time, it analyses which banking resolution strategy is most appropriate for different models, taking into account four factors applicable to bank insolvency. The book further examines the types of capital structure associated with each model, and in particular how BBFCs have influenced industry developments in Germany, the United Kingdom, the United States, and the EU. While there are several books that focus on the regulation of banks, insurance companies, and securities firms, this book will include the first analysis of BBFC from a structural, commercial, and resolution standpoint, analysing not only the three major jurisdictions but three different BBFC models, and will be of particular interest to students, researchers, and professors of banking and financial institutions.
