ECB's Vujčić says deeper single market is Europe's best defence against geopolitical shocks

ECB Vice-President Boris Vujčić told the Central Bank of Ireland's Financial System Conference that Europe should answer a more fragmented world by completing its single market rather than retreating from openness. The speech sets out why internal barriers weaken risk sharing and names the specific integration projects the ECB is backing, from banking union to the digital euro.

  • Vujčić said the EU imports 57% of its energy and almost all of its oil and gas, and that Russia's 2022 invasion caused the EU's largest energy shock since the 1970s.
  • ECB estimates put intra-EU frictions at the equivalent of a tariff of around 67% for goods and 95% for services, with services the upper bound of estimates.
  • ECB research finds around 70% of US state-level output shocks are absorbed through markets and fiscal transfers, against around 30% in the euro area, where capital markets absorb only 5 to 10%.
  • Vujčić called for completing the missing pillar of banking union, a European deposit insurance scheme, alongside harmonised creditor hierarchies and insolvency rules.
  • He pointed to the September launch of Pontes and the digital euro as elements of a resilient, European payments infrastructure.

FDIC proposes scrapping deposit insurance recordkeeping rule for large banks

The FDIC has proposed rescinding a 2016 rule that requires large banks to maintain dedicated recordkeeping systems for deposit insurance determination after a failure. The agency says its own systems have improved enough to make the obligation unnecessary. For affected institutions this removes a specific IT and data mechanism, including automated provisional holds, that has been in place for a decade.

  • The FDIC proposes to rescind a 2016 rule requiring banks with at least $2 billion in deposits to maintain deposit insurance recordkeeping systems.
  • The existing rule also requires automated placement and release of provisional holds on liability accounts, including deposit accounts.
  • The FDIC says improvements in its own systems now let it promptly calculate deposit insurance coverage after a failure, making the requirement unnecessary.
  • The agency separately plans to revise its data retention practices to minimise the volume of sensitive information it holds.

SRB chair urges resolution authorities to widen their perimeter beyond banks

SRB Chair Dominique Laboureix used his closing remarks at the IADI conference in Berlin to set out where the resolution and deposit-insurance agenda needs to move. He frames the task around three questions: whether the regulatory perimeter still captures the right firms, whether authorities focus on the right risks, and whether existing tools are fit for a more interconnected system. It signals the direction of SRB and FSB work rather than any new rule.

  • Laboureix set out three test questions for the financial safety net: whether authorities are looking at the right perimeter, focusing on the right risks, and holding tools fit for a new environment.
  • He cited the FSB thematic review finding only four of 19 jurisdictions assessed fully compliant with Key Attribute 6 on funding in resolution, with the EU Banking Union not among them.
  • He argued operational incidents such as cyberattacks and third-party outages must become part of the crisis-preparedness agenda, citing the July 2024 CrowdStrike outage and the 20 October Revolut disruption linked to a Google Cloud failure in London.
  • He noted the European Commission's work on banking-sector competitiveness hints the Single Resolution Fund could take on a deposit insurance role for the largest banks and provide liquidity support to national deposit guarantee schemes.
  • He pointed to the revised IADI Core Principles 17 and 18 and the FSB Crisis Preparedness Strategic Review as the framework for closer cross-border and cross-sector cooperation.

FSB speech cites gap on resolution funding backstops across 19 jurisdictions

A closing speech at a Berlin conference on deposit insurance and resolution, delivered by an FSB-linked resolution authority chair, sets out where crisis-preparedness frameworks are falling short: perimeter gaps around stablecoins and new payment arrangements, growing operational risk, and unfinished implementation of existing resolution standards. It matters for anyone mapping how regulators are reframing non-bank and operational risk ahead of future rulemaking.

  • An FSB peer review (Thematic Review on Public Sector Backstop Funding Mechanisms, October 2026) found only four of 19 jurisdictions assessed fully compliant overall with Key Attribute 6 on funding in resolution.
  • The EU Banking Union was not among the jurisdictions found fully compliant, according to the speaker.
  • The speaker cites a 20 October disruption linked to a Google Cloud failure in London that affected Revolut's app, card payments, transfers and cash withdrawals alongside services at several other financial institutions.
  • The speech references IADI's revised Core Principles 17 and 18, covering cooperation among safety-net participants and cross-border information sharing respectively.
  • The Resolution Steering Group recently discussed stablecoin crisis management and responses to operational incidents, the speaker said.

ePayments Systems enters special administration, FCA confirms

The FCA confirms e-money firm ePayments Systems Limited has entered special administration, a regime designed to prioritise returning customer funds quickly. This covers who is now responsible, what protections apply, and why FSCS compensation does not cover this case.

  • EPS entered special administration on 15 October 2026 under the Payment and Electronic Money Institution Insolvency Regulations 2021.
  • Mark Boast and Allister Manson of Opus Restructuring LLP were appointed joint special administrators.
  • The FSCS does not cover payment services, so EPS customers have no compensation scheme protection for these funds.
  • The special administrators will assess all funds held by the firm to confirm the current safeguarding position.
  • The FCA states EPS remains FCA-authorised and subject to its rules throughout the administration.

FSB says just one in five members fully meet bank resolution funding rules

An FSB Secretary General speech to G20 context surveys AI adoption, stablecoin oversight and regulatory modernisation, but the hardest fact is a peer review finding on resolution funding. Compliance and resolution planning teams should note the implementation gap flagged and the parallel publications on AI practices and stablecoin monitoring referenced alongside it.

  • Only one in five FSB member jurisdictions is fully compliant with the FSB's policies on temporary public sector funding for banks in resolution.
  • Approximately half of FSB member jurisdictions have material gaps in implementing these backstop funding mechanisms, per the Peer Review Report on Public Sector Backstop Funding Mechanisms.
  • The FSB published its Sound Practices for Responsible Adoption of AI, comprising twelve practices described as a flexible toolkit rather than minimum standards.
  • A consultation report setting out eight principles for modernising regulatory and supervisory frameworks will be finalised in 2027 after further stakeholder engagement.
  • The FSB submitted a summary of its ongoing stablecoin cross-border vulnerability work to the G20, building on 2023 high-level recommendations and a 2025 thematic peer review.

FSB finds half of jurisdictions still have gaps in public-sector backstop funding

The Financial Stability Board has assessed how far its member jurisdictions have gone in building public sector backstop funding mechanisms for banks in resolution. The review, launched after the 2023 bank failures, finds material gaps in roughly half of jurisdictions fifteen years after the original recommendations, and sets out six recommendations for action before, not during, a crisis.

  • The review finds further work is needed in a majority of jurisdictions, with approximately half still carrying material gaps fifteen years after the original recommendations.
  • The report sets out six recommendations for jurisdictions to achieve full and consistent implementation of the FSB Recommendations on PBF mechanisms.
  • The FSB is asked to support implementation by sharing good practices and closely monitoring progress on Key Attribute 6 and its Guiding Principles.
  • The review examines implementation of Key Attribute 6 and the Guiding Principles on temporary funding to support the orderly resolution of a G-SIB, not the full range of resolution tools.

SRB moves bank-specific resolvability reporting to a three-year cycle from 2027

The SRB has published its annual list of consultations, data requests and deliverables for the coming year, alongside a structural change to how often banks must submit certain resolvability materials. This affects EU banks under SRB remit tracking compliance workload and reporting calendars for 2027 and beyond.

  • The SRB published its list of consultations, data requests and deliverables for 2027 on 7 October 2026.
  • From 2027, a broad set of bank-specific deliverables detailed in Table 2.2 move from annual to a three-year submission cycle where no material resolvability concerns exist.
  • The SRB has discontinued, with immediate effect, the quarterly Sign-off form on MREL eligibility of reported liabilities.
  • The SRB states that banks with consistently satisfactory resolvability performance can expect bank-specific deliverable requests to fall by up to one-third over the medium term, assuming legal stability.
  • Each bank has already received a priority letter setting out which 2027 requirements apply to its individual situation.

FSB finds few jurisdictions have pre-arranged public backstops to fund banks in resolution

The FSB has assessed how its member jurisdictions have implemented Key Attribute 6, which calls for credible public sector backstop funding as a last resort for banks in resolution. The verdict is blunt: few jurisdictions have arrangements in place that can credibly meet the liquidity needs of a large systemic bank. This segment covers what the review measured, where the gap sits, and the recommendations now on the table.

  • FSB peer review finds few jurisdictions have a pre-arranged public backstop that can credibly fund large systemic banks in resolution.
  • Incomplete implementation of Key Attribute 6 is described as a material gap for authorities' ability to resolve systemic banks.
  • Review assessed credible mechanisms, taxpayer loss-recovery tools and moral-hazard safeguards, and issues recommendations to members and the FSB.

SRB sets April 2028 deadline for banks to fold communication guidance into resolution plans

The Single Resolution Board has finalised operational guidance on how banks communicate when they are failing, plus a supplement on testing those capabilities. It sets no new rules but clarifies existing resolvability expectations and gives banks a date by which to reflect them in their communication plans. Useful for anyone managing Banking Union resolution readiness and tracking the SRM Vision 2028 shift toward operational testing.

  • SRB published final communication guidance plus a testing supplement; neither sets new requirements but clarifies the Expectations for Banks Communication dimension.
  • Banks have until April 2028 to reflect the operational considerations in their communication plans where needed.
  • Both documents follow a public consultation held between 17 October and 12 December 2025 and are aligned with the EBA resolvability framework.
