This contribution presents and discusses main results of a new survey on the assessment of supervisory quality among German banks. In particular, it is analyzed if and how supervised banks’ perception of the quality of supervisory authorities and their instruments has changed due to the financial crisis starting in mid-2007. Subsequently, results from the recent survey are compared with findings provided by a former study carried out by the authors in 2006 (Paul, Stein and Uhde, 2008).
