Abstract

This chapter empirically investigates the level of contribution banks must provide to a single deposit insurance scheme according to their level of risk. European Banking Authority (EBA) guidelines on methods for calculating contributions are applied to a sample of global systemically important banks in two different points in time: in 2014, before the Commission’s proposal on a European Deposit Insurance Scheme, and in 2018, the last year with available accounting data on EBA website. For the banks under scrutiny, core and additional indicators, as defined by EBA, are computed. The aim of this empirical investigation is to contribute to the regulatory debate by assessing which countries—if any—are better off after the full implementation of common monitoring system of bank riskiness.
