| ''Bank regulation''
| | #In relation to tax, a particular tax system or its tax authorities, or both. For example, the tax system applying in a particular country or state. Also known as a tax jurisdiction. |
| | | #A system of tax rules. |
| Bailin refers to the use of private sector money, rather than public money, to deal with a failed or failing bank.
| | #Any system of rules, usually - but not necessarily - having legal force. |
| | | #A government or other political authority, especially a corrupt one. |
| Under bailin, private sector creditors of the bank suffer a share of the bank's losses.
| |
| Broadly, there are two forms of bailin:
| |
| #Statutory bailin; and
| |
| #Contractual bailin.
| |
| | |
| | |
| The term is derived from 'bail out', which refers to the use of public money these circumstances.
| |
| | |
| | |
| '''1. Statutory bailin'''
| |
| | |
| A technique used as part of the resolution of a failed bank under statutory authority.
| |
| | |
| The Resolution Authority (RA) makes an assessment of the extent of expected losses and reconstructs the bank's capital accordingly.
| |
| | |
| In reconstructing the bank's capital the RA imposes losses on creditors, including preferred shareholders and depositors.
| |
| | |
| The allocation of the total expected losses follows the creditor hierarchy that would apply in a liquidation, until the total expected losses are covered.
| |
| | |
|
| |
| The remaining (surviving) layers of debt are partially converted to equity to recapitalise viable parts of the business.
| |
| | |
| The viable parts of the business are thus enabled to continue under new ownership.
| |
| | |
| | |
| The RA is normally given significant discretion in how the reconstruction - including bailin - is applied.
| |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| '''2. Contractual bailin'''
| |
|
| |
| Contractual bailin refers to a provision in the terms of certain bank debt that are to be converted automatically to equity or written off, if conditions specified in the contract obtain.
| |
| | |
| | |
| Sometimes written ''bail-in'' or ''bail in''.
