description

The objective of this paper is to explore selected strategies of countering the financial crisis in Spain, with a special focus on the issue of investor protection. I will attempt to highlight good solutions and the most significant mistakes made in the struggle to tackle the crisis, based on comments provided by experts in the field - both scholars and practitioners. Owing to the great complexity of the subject, in this work I focus on aspects connected with the restructuring of Spanish banking institutions and with the deposit guarantee system, and I discuss the efforts to overcome the financial crisis in Spain within the context of new challenges to public law (especially in light of the new European supervision system). Keywords: financial crisis,  investor protection, banking institutions
