some networks, a regulator can successfully coordinate a bail-in, whereas he
is forced to a bailout in other networks. The goal of the present study is to
analyze what interbank networks financial institutions form ex ante, when
they anticipate the impact of the formed network structure on resolution
policies.
A research project on a more game theoretical project is also possible if the
candidate brings the appropriate theoretical background.
