Abstract
The research will evaluate and discuss the importance of Deposit Insurance Systems
(DIS) and the necessity of having this system. Important to the evaluation is an
analytical consideration of how the South African Reserve Bank (SARB), the National
Treasury (NT) and other global financial bodies proposed the approach thereof.
Insofar as most jurisdictions had already adopted the DIS as encouraged by the
international financial institutions, the study shall determine whether it is plausible for
South Africa to derive guidance in her approach taking into account the potential risks
posed by the safety-net.
