Bank Chapter Value and the Viability of the Japanese Convoy System

Author

Listed:
  • Spiegel, M.M.

Abstract

This paper compares the performance of a convoy banking system, similar to that which prevailed in Japan, to a fixed-premium deposit insurance regime. Under this system, failed banks are merged with healthy banks, rather than closed, so that the banking system itself provides the safety net for guaranteed deposits.
