Banks have living wills too

These wills are meant to tell regulators what the banks plan to do in the event they become insolvent. The Federal Reserve says: “Each plan, commonly known as a living will, must describe the company’s strategy for rapid and orderly resolution under the Bankruptcy Code in the event of material financial distress or failure of the company.”
