### Target Audience
- Entry level course targeting policy makers and subject-matter experts at financial regulatory institutions and other public authorities responsible for bank resolution and/or depositor protection (e.g., central banks, financial supervisors, resolution authorities and/or deposit insurance schemes).

### Course Description
- Bank resolution frameworks are a critical component of the financial safety net that helps country authorities respond effectively to episodes of financial instability.
- For policymakers to deal effectively with failing banks, they need to understand the core principles of bank resolution and depositor protection.
- Despite efforts by many authorities further progress remains warranted - in particular in emerging markets and low-income countries.
- The course seeks to enhance participants' understanding on issues pertaining to:
  - resolution preparedness,
  - available resolution tools,
  - cross-border aspects of bank resolution,
  - implementation of resolution actions.

### Course Objectives
Upon completion of this course, participants should be able to:
- Understand international standards on resolution regimes and depositor protection, and how these can be proportionally implemented.
- Identify the causes of bank failure.
- Understand how the most important resolution powers and tools are used, their features and preconditions for their application.
- Identify the most important elements of resolution planning, resolution strategies and resolvability in a cross-border context.
- Understand the different modalities of cross-border cooperation between authorities on resolution issues.
- Understand the most important modalities of deposit insurance schemes (including types and depositor preference), and their interaction with bank resolution.
- Understand the modalities of making bank resolution operational, in particular the main concepts of funding in resolution and loss absorbing capacity.
