The Financial Resolution Working Group gathers academics, regulators and practitioners who are engaging in informal exchanges of views on bank resolution topics in order to promote dialogue and research in that area. It examines the full scope of relevant topics and highlights the current challenges in order to give impetus to innovative regulatory avenues and practical solutions. It also makes benefit of academic publications and ongoing research from practical experience and insights.

By engaging in such collaborative exercise, it is expected that the Task Force will make a contribution to the further development of appropriate regulation and processes which are crucial for more efficient and, to the extent possible, cost-neutral resolution of financial institutions in Europe and beyond.

Prof. Dr. Georg Ringe, Hamburg University, and Prof. Dr. Christos Gortsos,  National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, are the academic co-leaders of this Task Force.
