Abstract
This article examines the evolution of the Banking Union over its first decade, focusing on what the author calls the joint-interaction model of integration. This model, exemplified by the Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM) and the Single Resolution Board (SRB), emphasizes day-to-day collaboration between European and national authorities, fostering a truly single approach to banking supervision and crisis management. The article highlights the successes of this model in enhancing the financial resilience of the eurozone banking system, while also acknowledging its limitations, such as the slow progress in cross-border market integration. It explores the potential for extending this model to other areas of EU policy, such as anti-money laundering and capital markets supervision, suggesting that the joint-interaction approach could serve as a blueprint for deeper European integration in the face of ongoing political and economic challenges.
