  1. Deposit insurance and financial stability schemesAEGNew York, April 2012 nadim.ahmad@oecd.org

  2. Background • Various schemes introduced by governments in wake of recent financial crisis to provide financial stability and to protect depositors. • Raise a number of questions concerning treatment in the NA

  3. Stability fee and deposit insurance schemes • Compulsory payments levied by government • May or may not be hypothecated to a special fund • Which may or may not be hypothecated only to support the institutions that pay in to the fund.

  4. Proposals • Paid into a consolidated fund (not hypothecated) = tax • Or should there be a caveat in cases where the payments into the fund are broadly equal to expected payouts? • Paid into hypothecated fund, • with sums paid in exceeding expected payouts = tax • with sums paid in broadly equalling expected payouts = (insurance) service? Or should these always be treated as taxes for simplicity?

  5. Deposit protection scheme • Key issue: treatment of priority claims and acquisition of assets by government to redistribute to depositors as part of government’s deposits guarantee

  6. Proposal • Any positive difference between assets acquired by government and redistributed to depositors = service payment • Any additional levy imposed by government to make up for any shortfall = tax.

  7. AEG • Asked to consider proposals • And whether any additional guidance should be developed for GFS manual?
