Despite reassuring efforts from German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Nicolas Sarkozy, the Eurozone -- and particularly Greek -- debt crisis continues to wreak havoc on the European Banking sector. Even though not part of the Eurozone, UK Banks are also greatly affected by events that occur within the currency union, and have struggled in a similar fashion to other European financial institutions. Greece currently relies on funds from last year's euro110 billion ($150 billion) international bailout to service its debt and pay salaries and pensions. But the lifeline could be cut if the country continues to miss fiscal and reform targets.
Billionaire investor George Soros argues that European policymakers have not come up with measures to help fund European banks, whose shares are now back at their lowest point since March 2009. "The lack of an authoritative pan-European body to handle a banking crisis of this severity is causing a huge problem," he added.

In the UK, The ICB's Vickers report recommended this week that UK banks "ring-fence" their basic services (deposits, overdraft), and move riskier "casino" operations to a non-ring-fenced bank that would not enjoy government support.
Ring-fencing occurs when a portion of a company's assets are financially separated without necessarily being operated as a separate entity. Ring-fenced ops would need to maintain a debt/equity ratio of at least 10%.
