Bankarstvo, 2015
FENOMEN ŠVAJCARSKOG BANKARSTVA Rezime Švajcarsko bankarstvo je "generičko ime" za sistem koji počiva na privatnom bankarsvo uz bankarsku tajnost. U uvodnom delu naglašena je razlika između švajcarskog bankarstva i bankarstva u Švajcarskoj. U drugom delu detaljnije je opisana institucija bankarske tajnosti, a u trećem-izuzeci od nje. U četvrom delu raspravlja se o sadašnjosti i budućnosi švajcarskog bankarstva. Razmotreno je da li je institucija bankarske tajne postala smetnja u novim uslovima za dalji razvoj švajcarskog bankarstva i švajcarskih banaka, kao i da li će u budućnosti tzv. švajcarsko bankarstvo nestati.
The recent fi nancial crisis has demonstrated that a failure of systemically important fi nancial institutions (SIFIs) could seriously damage the stability of the fi nancial system. A precise and consistent defi nition of a SIFI is pivotal to ensure effi cient and effective regulation of the global fi nancial sector. This paper proposes a threefold test that indicates which fi nancial institutions are systemically important across the various industry segments.
This paper grew out of a suggestion from Anthony M. Santomero, who would have been a collaborator and co-author had he not received and graciously heeded a call to public service. His comments on the paper have been most helpful. I also have received valuable comments from Douglas Pearce and John Lapp.

University of Pennsylvania Journal of International Law, 1988
In international financial circles, bank accounts have long supplanted "chocolate, cheese, and watches as a symbol of the Swiss economy."1 Influenced by Switzerland's reputation for prudence and discretion in banking matters, overseas investors have reportedly placed more than $140 billion in assets in Swiss banks.' In 1986, the three largest commercial banks in Switzerland each announced that their net profits increased twelve percent, and two other leading Swiss banks reported even greater increases.' Switzerland's collective success in attracting foreign capital and generating profits may prove a cynosure for many United States commercial banks.
