Our study is based on 40 consolidated banking groups from 10 countries in Europe. We used binary logistic regression as an econometric model. We introduced accounting, macroeconomic, regulatory, legal and institutional variables. The results of our study confirm that doubtful credit is the main variable contributing to the birth of the European banking crisis.</p><p><strong>Keywords</strong>: banking crisis, binary Logit model, legal, regulatory and institutional environment.</p><p><strong>JEL Classifications</strong>: E58, C15, P48.</p><p>DOI: <a href="https://doi.org/10.32479/ijefi.11225">https://doi.org/10.32479/ijefi.11225</a></p> ER -
