The Single Resolution Board (SRB) has released an infographic to mark the 10th anniversary of the Single Resolution Mechanism (SRM), summarising what the EU’s bank resolution framework has delivered since its launch in 2015. The infographic highlights that the SRM is designed to manage bank failures without wider disruption, shift losses to shareholders and creditors rather than taxpayers, and support resolution through the Single Resolution Fund (SRF), which is financed by the banking industry and now stands at €80 billion. It also points to the SRM’s role, alongside national resolution authorities, in handling bank failures consistently and supporting financial stability and confidence in the banking system.
