De Nederlandsche Bank NV Working Paper No. 389 P.O. Box 98 1000 AB AMSTERDAM August 2013 The Netherlands Trust and Financial Crisis Experiences1 Carin van der Cruijsen2, Jakob de Haan3, and David-Jan Jansen4 August 2013 Abstract Using eight annual surveys from the Netherlands between 2006 and 2013, we examine whether financial crisis experiences affect trust in banks, trust in the banking supervisor, and generalized trust. Adverse experiences during the financial crisis do not only directly lower trust in banks, but also have a negative effect on generalized trust. Customers of a bank that ran into problems have less trust in banks than respondents without this experience. Our results also indicate that respondents who were customer of a bank that failed have a significantly stronger decline of generalized trust than respondents without this experience. Personal financial crisis experiences do not have a significant effect on trust in the banking supervisor.

De Nederlandsche Bank NV Working Paper No. 502 P.O. Box 98 1000 AB AMSTERDAM February 2016 The Netherlands The changing composition of the supervisory boards of the eight largest banks and insurers during 2008-2014 and the impact of the “4+4 suitability screenings”* Mijntje Lückerath-Roversa and Margriet Stavast-Groothuisb a Tilburg University/TIAS, the Netherlands b De Nederlandsche Bank, the Netherlands 15 February 2016 Abstract In this article we describe the changes in the composition of management boards and supervisory boards that have taken place in the Dutch financial sector since 2008. In particular, we consider the effects of the introduction of suitability screening for executive directors and supervisory directors at the four largest banks and the four largest insurers in the Netherlands (the “4+4 screenings”). In the summer of 2012, the supervisory directors of these eight institutions were the first group to undergo suitability screening, enabling the impact of screening on the composition of the board to be examined in isolation. This article demonstrates that the composition of the management boards and supervisory boards of these Dutch financial institutions has changed substantially since 2008.

  • Explaining the 2008 Financial Crisis with a System Dynamics Model
    Explaining the 2008 financial crisis with a Sy stem Dynamics model D.G.G. Scholten s4066952 Mentor: Prof. Dr. E.A.J.A. Rouwette Second reader: Dr. H.A.G.M. Jacobs Email: [email protected] Tel. Nr.: 06-50451787 24-10-2016 Acknowledgements Writing this thesis has proven to be one of the hardest things I have ever done. Not only was the subject of this thesis an incredibly complex one, writing down my thoughts is also hard because my thoughts tend to not be coherent for other people when I write them down. I do think that I managed to somehow get the them across in this thesis though. Next, I found it hard to finally mark down what was going to be the scope of the thesis and to stop adding other ‘important’ aspects and relations to the model. Finally I decided that I should just make the definitive choices of what to include and what not to. For me, because this system I was trying to grasp was so incredibly complex, finding what actually had to be in and what should not be in there was a difficult task. As this thesis reached its ending, I am positive that I have been as complete as possible. For me, it is clear that my passion is with building models. I love finding the information that leads to improvements of my model. During this thesis I ran into some hardships and a personal wall. For myself, I think that I have not been pro-active enough and too polite in my needs in the beginning with the bank, resulting in a mutual feeling of not getting what we wanted.

  • INSOLVENCY REPORT Insolvency Report No
    1/15 INSOLVENCY REPORT Insolvency Report No. 41 by the Bankruptcy Trustees of DSB Bank N.V. 30 October 2020 The public insolvency reports of DSB Bank N.V. (DSB Bank) are published online on the website www.dsbbank.nl. The trustees in the bankruptcy of DSB Bank (Bankruptcy Trustees) use this website to publish other information on the case and the progress of the insolvency proceedings. MAIN POINTS OF THIS REPORT - The DSB Bank Financial Report for 2019 dated 14 May 2020 was published on the DSB Bank website in the preceding reporting period. - As at 30 September 2020, the claims of unsecured and subordinated creditors still totalled €838 million; there are still 255 creditors. - In addition to discussing current operations, the Bankruptcy Trustees are making preparations together with the management and staff of subsidiary Finqus B.V. (Finqus) and advisers for the sale of the remaining assets (principally the loan portfolio), possibly within the next 12 months. Depending on the route preferred by the various stakeholders and other considerations, we shall be working either towards selling the shares of Finqus or towards Finqus first selling the loan portfolio, followed by liquidation of Finqus. On 2 June 2020, the Bankruptcy Trustees reported that the timetable had been put back temporarily in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic. After careful consideration, the Bankruptcy Trustees announced on 17 August 2020 that it was deemed opportune to proceed with the proposed sale of the loan portfolio. The impact of COVID-19 on the loan portfolio and the state of the market will continue to be closely monitored in the forthcoming period, leading to the amendment of the planned timetable as necessary.
