The Threat of UK Bank Runs: Should We Be Worried About Our Banks?

As investors we rely on the banking system to keep our money safe. But occasionally customers lose faith in that safety and we get a bank run. In this video, we look at the state of the UK banking system including the recent Bank of England bank stress tests, and consider whether a run on UK banks could happen.
