Bailin refers to the use of private sector money, rather than public money, to deal with a failed or failing bank.

Under bailin, private sector creditors of the bank suffer a share of the bank's losses.


Contractual bailin refers to a provision in the terms of certain bank debt instruments that are converted automatically to equity or written off, if conditions specified in the related contract obtain.
