Abstract

Although the subject of bank risks is widely described in the banking literature, the dangers encountered in the operations of safety net institutions are less frequently analyzed. A good opportunity for their deeper study is the first implementation of the resolution procedure by the Single Resolution Board (banking union resolution authority) in line with the provisions introduced to the EU legal framework after the financial crisis 2007+. The analysis of the lawsuits connected with the forced sale of the Banco Popular Español to Santander (BPE) offers a valuable lesson on potential legal risks that must be addressed by the resolution authority. For this purpose, the concept of legal risk, the framework for conducting anti-crisis measures in the new legal environment and the course of the BPE crisis have been analyzed. Then, the consequences of BPE’s resolution have been investigated.
