Wish I did, but that would mean keeping a searchable record of all news items I read, and I don't know anyone that does that.
This describes the approximate equivalent in the US:
"Deposit insurance systems insure each depositor up to a certain amount, so that depositors' savings are protected even if the bank fails. This removes the incentive to withdraw one's deposits simply because others are withdrawing theirs.[1] However, depositors may still be motivated by fears they may lack immediate access to deposits during a bank reorganization.[6] To avoid such fears triggering a run, the U.S. FDIC keeps its takeover operations secret, and re-opens branches under new ownership on the next business day.[21] Government deposit insurance programs can be ineffective if the government itself is perceived to be running short of cash.[20]"
The secrecy to which I referred might not relate to a failing bank per se, but the BoE/government's actions in preventing said bank collapsing. In any case, it stops the queues of wrinkies because they don't know their bank is going under.
Anyone know any different?
