A bank liquidation policy problem is analysed within a Merton framework where an appropriate notion of capital adequacy is introduced. The value of the deposit insurance liabilities and bank equity are derived. The effects of capital requirements on risk-shifting and bank reorganization are discussed, with a comparison of different regulatory regimes (in keeping with the Basel I and II Accords) and their impact on banks’ behaviour.

Keywords: Bank liquidation policies, solvency regulations, incentive approach, deposit insurance, capital requirements
