2. Determination of the problem issues in the broad perspective who should cover the costs? who should take the risk? Burden-sharing Players: Banks Customers State (taxpayers) Safety net institutions Supervision Deposit Insurance Schemes Factors for analyses: risks (financial, moral hazard, others) financial costs TBTF doctrine
