That shrinking feeling: Tracing the changing shape of the European banking industry is a report commissioned by PwC and written by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU). Based on a quantitative analysis of the European banking industry’s aggregate balance sheet, which was performed by the EIU, the report investigates how banks are adapting to profound changes in regulation.
This report outlines the space that European banks are increasingly likely to occupy and attempts to shed light on how the industry has changed since the announcement of the Basel III rules in 2010. The EIU gathered balance sheet data from 33 banks across the European Union (EU), Australia, Canada, Japan and the US; 17 of the banks were from Europe. The data covered the period 2009–2013. Some data from banks in the US and Japan were omitted because the information was insufficient and non-substantial.
