On the afternoon of Tuesday, December 12, the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago
and the Working Group on Deposit Insurance of the Financial Stability Forum (Basel)
will cosponsor a symposium on deposit insurance:
“Designing an Effective Deposit Insurance Structure: An International Perspective”
The symposium is part of the Forum’s outreach program to generate informed feedback
on its ongoing research and proposed recommendations on deposit insurance and safety-net
provisions. The program presenters are from a number of different countries, providing for
an international perspective, and the discussants are all leading financial and banking
academics and economists. This should make for an interesting discussion.
A copy of the program is attached, as is a more complete description of the Forum,
