Abstract In this book, the author concerns himself with the EU’s banking union, whose establishment aims to further integrate the European banking sector and strengthen confidence in its stability. He focuses on the Single Resolution Mechanism (SRM), which was established as the second pillar of the banking union. With the help of the SRM, it should be possible in the future for even large banks to be in financial distress without endangering the stability of the entire financial system. The bank will be liquidated in accordance with the rules of the SRM if traditional insolvency proceedings are not feasible due to the caesura effect associated with them. In addition, as little public money as possible—at best no public funds at all—is to be spent on the resolution. The main purpose of this study is to ascertain whether the SRM can achieve this objective and how the SRM and the other pillars of the banking union interact with each other.
