When financial institutions are connected via balance sheet interlock and overlapping portfolios in a network of contracts, the default probability of one institution depends on the default probability of all the other institutions. There are various questions and issues associated with the determination of the the systemic importance of a bank as well as with the determination of the most resilient architecture. I present the insights of recent works on this topic and the relations among them.
