Deposit insurance and financial integration in the Eurozone: A DSGE model

Abstract

The financial and Eurozone debt crises highlighted the importance of deposit insurance coordination in the Eurozone. While the role of deposit insurance in protecting the economy from harmful runs is widely accepted, little is known about the international implications of deposit insurance, and in particular how it affects the cross-border transmission of shocks. This paper proposes a macroeconomic framework to evaluate different deposit insurance regimes in the Eurozone. I develop an international DSGE model with banks that are subject to endogenous and costly runs. The model sheds light on a new transmission channel: a weak deposit insurance in one country generates financial instability in that country, which in turn spills over to the rest of the union due to financial integration. The analysis shows that harmonizing deposit insurance in the Eurozone significantly improves financial stability and welfare both in the Core and Periphery regions.
