Abstract
The growing complexity of the financial sector and the extreme difficulty to cope with it has been of one the main insights gained from the recent financial crisis. We purport, albeit briefly, to assess some of the consequences of such complexity through the lens of the interplay between the reformed regulation of this sector and the application of competition rules to financial institutions (in particular, banks).
