Abstract

The evolution of the Italian regulatory system is based on five basic principles: (i) maintenance of trust in the financial system; (ii) investors protection; (iii) stability and wellfunctioning of the financial system; (iv) financial system competitiveness; (v) compliance of financial rules. For banks, capital regulation has been a focus since the introduction of the first Basel Accord, with a strong impact on the financial structure with many M&As cases and the exit of the public sector from the industry. The crisis has been faced with the enhancement of the prudential supervisory style.
