What this bill does

In plain terms: what it changes and who it affects.

The proposal creates a shared EU deposit insurance system for Banking Union banks, gradually replacing purely national back-up for protected deposits.

Who it affects

It affects bank depositors and banks in euro-area Member States, and in non-euro countries that join Banking Union. National deposit guarantee schemes would also be directly affected.

Core of the proposal
  • Creates EDIS in three stages: reinsurance, co-insurance, then full insurance.
  • Sets up a Deposit Insurance Fund financed by bank contributions.
  • Allows national schemes to receive EDIS funding for payouts or resolution contributions.
  • Requires national schemes to follow funding paths and comply with EU deposit-guarantee rules.
Key provisions
Transitional law
EDIS phases in over seven years: three years of reinsurance, four years of co-insurance, then full insurance.
