State bailouts and financial crisis • Too important to fail (externalities!) • Do nothing, “Zombie banks” and economic activity • Act quickly and strongly ! • Everything was possible, but not any more ! • EU Banking union: • supervision, resolution, deposit insurance • Protecting governmentbudgets from banking crisis ! • Moral hazard in banking bailouts: who should pay ??

  5. EU bank resolution in the future • Special regime for troubled banks (2016?) • Burden sharing: shareholders first, non-secured creditors second, taxpayers last, • Restructuring tools by authorities: • Sale of the business on behalf of shareholders • Set up the bridge bank (the good bank approach) • Separation of bad assets (the bad bank approach) • Bail-ins of unsecured creditors

  6. Create Good bank ! • Troubled bank transfers good assets and deposits on its 100% owned new Good bank • Bad assets and non-secured liabilities stay with the Old bank which has to be liquidated • Owners and non-secured creditors pay the bill • State funds (if needed at all) go to Good bank • Modern solution for leveraged banking!

Perfect storm for corporate balance sheets in the crisis • High leverage:LBOs and Financial holdings • Debt financing of speculative investments • Short term financing of long term projects • Stop on foreign financing of banks • Recession and export revenues down • Collapse of the balance sheets: • real estate (-30%), capital markets (-70%) • NPLs in banksare a mirror picture of corporate debt overhang in Slovenia !!

  13. Institutional framework for workouts • Out of court restructuring is the way to go (flexibility, speed, costs,..) • Insolvency regime is the benchmark: • - Compulsory Consolidation (CC) • - Liquidation • Main problems: • CC abused by debtors and owners-managers • CC complex and time consuming • - Collective action by banks

  14. Modernizing the insolvency law (1) • Survival of the debtor vs best repayment for creditors • More powers to creditors: start and lead the process • Write-offs for shareholders if liquidation value negative • APR rule based pay-offs • Inclusion of secured creditors and adequate compensation (split of claims into secured and non-secured part) • Pooling of collateral • CC for a selected group of creditors and shareholders

  15. Modernizing the insolvency law (2) • Automatic stay and super priority for new financing • Spin offs to Good Co. and liquidation of Bad Co. • Pre-bankruptcy procedure for large firms and financial creditors • Limited capacity of Courts: small number of creditor classes, no Court fairness hearing ?? • Complexity of the rules ?? • Limited capacity of insolvency administrators ?? • Can bank creditors play the active role ?? • No forced debt to equity conversions (Germany) ??

  16. Collective action by bank creditors ?? • New lead bank and consolidator: BAMC !! • Re-nationalization of the corporate sector • BAMC is run by foreign experts and might be partially privatized/financed on the market • Ljubljana banking club rules • AQR and new reality in valuating corporate loans • New insolvency rules • Temporary debt to equity for banks ?? • Financial vs. operational restructuring by bankers ?? • FDIs and political will for the structural reforms ??
