Regulators look closely at macro-prudential regulations rather than regulations applying to each specific firm when looking at systemic risk. This issue is considered to be uncontrolled.

Bankruptcy is becoming a problem worldwide and there is a difference between how countries throughout Europe handle bankruptcy.

When an individual applies for a loan, the bank searches for specific information about that person's financial status. A file is created for this individual and depending on which country the person is applying in, either a loan committee or an underwriter will take a look at the information and make a decision based on specific criteria. This thesis might be a comparison between banking loan criteria in different countries (for example, comparing United States criteria and standards to Europe). The thesis would be based on several interviews with bank managers from various banks in search of which criteria each bank deems as the most important. Alternatively, you could use a comparison of banks vs. credit unions in the United States.
