Wien (OTS) - The European Union completed the basic design of its
Banking Union in December 2013. Its goal is to create an integrated
financial framework for safeguarding financial stability and minimize
the costs of bank failures. It is based on a detailed single rulebook
developed by the European Banking Authority (EBA) and the single
supervisory mechanism operated by the European Central Bank (ECB).
These are complemented by newly integrated frameworks for deposit
insurance and the resolution of banks that also include some sharing
of crisis resolution costs by EU countries.

Event:

This workshop puts the banking union into broader economic, legal,
political perspectives and discusses whether and how it can help to
resolve the current problems in banking and prevent further
2008-style banking and sovereign crises in future.

Panelists:

Alina Lengauer (Deputy Head, Department of European, International
and Comparative Law, University of Vienna): Legal foundations of the
European Banking Union: implications for the future

Thomas Gehrig (Vice Dean, Faculty of Business, Economics and
Statistics, University of Vienna): Economic benefits from coordinated
supervision

Zdenek Kudrna (Institute and Platform for European Integration
Research, University of Vienna): The EU and its Banking Union: The
state of the art

Moderator:
