Overview: The paper surveys the theory of banking regulation from the general perspective of regulatory theory. Starting by considering the different justifications of financial intermediation, it proceeds to identify the market failures that make banking regulation necessary. It then succinctly compares how the analysis of regulation compares in the domains of banking and industrial organization. Finally it analyses why a safety net for banks could be part of banking regulation and how it can be structured in an efficient way.
