Irish Readers Please Note:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Although this US article is very relevant to Ireland there is a word of caution re. Credit Unions. Randy Langel recommends transferring your money from the Big Banks to the safety of Credit Unions. This requires careful consideration in Ireland as a high percentage of CU funds are held in the Irish Big Banks. These are the banks that may be doing a Bail-In of depositor funds and only the first \u20ac100k of any account is guaranteed by the Government. The Government has some discretion on whose funds are taken in a bail in but can we trust them? Also it may not be an EU decision. Depositors in Irish Banks are now considered creditors of the bank. The article explains that the banks in Cyprus took up to 60% of the deposits of over \u20ac100k. It has been called Legal \u201cBank Robbery\u201d.<\/p>\n

Michael Noonan passed the Bail-in process into EU law during our EU Presidency.<\/b><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u201cAs of December 2012, federal laws, government agency approvals, <\/b>international agreements<\/b>, and tactical procedures are in place so the next big bank failure will trigger an entirely new resolution policy.<\/b><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/b>No longer will there be a government-taxpayer funded Bail-Out, <\/b><\/p>\n

but rather a Bail-In.<\/b><\/p>\n

The big banks will be allowed to confiscate your deposits at their discretion with no prior notice.<\/b><\/p>\n

Your compensation for the bank\u2019s absconding with your money is a new issuance of stock (equity) in their bank.\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n

\u201dThe unsecured debt holders can expect that their claims would<\/b> <\/b><\/span>be written down to reflect any losses that shareholders cannot <\/b><\/span>cover, with some converted partly into equity in order to <\/b><\/span>provide sufficient capital to return the sound businesses of the<\/b> <\/b><\/span>G-SIFI to private sector operation.\u201d<\/span> <\/b><\/p>\n
