Abstract

Although monetary policy is the main tool for central banking in order to control inflation/deflation, micro- and macroprudential instruments are also essential for crisis management. In this paper, we aim to clarify the differences between European and international banking methodologies. The European approach as represented by the European Banking Union, is based on a harder legalistic approach, whereas the international approach implemented by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision has a soft-law methodology. We propose two comparative standpoints: “uniformity†versus “diversity†, and a “legislative†versus "principle-based†approach
