will enshrine into law recommendations on the Irish banking system outlined in the Irish International<br />

Monetary Fund/EU memorandum of understanding.<br />

As part of an €85 billion rescue plan, the State has agreed to reduce the size of the Irish bank sector in a bid<br />

to prevent future loan losses tipping the economy over the edge and damaging the wider euro-zone. Some<br />

€35 billion of the fund is being used to bail out the banking system, with €10 billion being injected up front<br />

and the remaining €25 billion left in a contingency fund in case of future bank losses.<br />

Under the proposed legislation, the Minister, in consultation with the governor of the Central Bank, will<br />

have additional powers. These includes the ability to make subordinated liabilities orders in certain cases to<br />

achieve "appropriate burden sharing" by subordinated creditors in institutions that have received State<br />

support.<br />

AIB, Bank of Ireland, Anglo Irish Bank, EBS and Irish Nationwide Building Society have all received<br />

funding from the Government, with more than €35 billion already injected into or commited to the lenders.<br />

The Minister will also have the power to appoint a special manager to such a bank "in limited and<br />

exceptional circumstances".<br />

It also gives the Minister powers to transfer some institutions’ assets and liabilities to facilitate the<br />

restructuring of the sector, and will enable the Government to inject part of the capital required by AIB<br />

before the end of the year.<br />

Although the Central Bank imposed new capital core tier 1 ratios of 12 per cent for Irish banks, it said it<br />

wanted AIB to maintain a ratio of 14 per cent to cover future loan losses. The bank must raise almost €10<br />

billion in additional capital and as a result, the State is expected to take a stake of more than 90 per cent in<br />

the bank.<br />

Up until last month, AIB, Bank of Ireland and Anglo Irish Bank had lost more than €35 billion in deposits<br />

this year.<br />

Mr Lenihan said a "comprehensive restructuring" of the retail banking system in the State was a key factor<br />

in the EU-IMF rescue plan agreement.<br />

"The banking system must play its role in providing the credit to the real economy to support our recovery,"<br />

he said.<br />

The Bill also contains provisions that allow the Minister to impose terms and conditions on institutions in<br />

return for State aid, as Mr Lenihan did over payment of bonuses by AIB.<br />

The new powers contained in the Bill are scheduled to expire at the end of December 2012.<br />

The Bill, which will be debated in the Dáil tomorrow, is expected to be enacted by the end of the <strong>week</strong>.<br />

Draft legislation providing for a comprehensive Special Resolution Regime (SRR) that will provide a<br />

framework for winding down lenders in the future will be introduced to the Dáil before the end of February.<br />

Qui si parla che la legge si può applicare anche senza nazionalizzazione..brutta storia<br />

Cmq si Profila che una Banca Può tagliare al <strong>50</strong>% Lt2 Ut2 T1 senza Fallire,quindi per il mio gusto non vale<br />

+ la pena investire in Subordinati,quando non cè un minimo di legge che ci tutela<br />
