After the systemic effects of banks defaults during the recent financial crisis, and despite a huge amount of literature in the last years concerning the systemic risk, no standard methodologies have been set up to now. Even the new Basel 3 regulation has adopted a heuristic indicator-based approach, quite far from an effective quantitative tool. In this paper, we refer to the different pieces of the puzzle: definition of systemic risk, a set of coherent and useful measures, the computability of these measures, the data set structure. In this challenging field, we aim to build a comprehensive picture of the state of the art, to illustrate the open issues, and to outline some paths for a more successful future research. This work appropriately integrates other useful surveys and it is directed to both academic researchers and practitioners. date: 2014-03 date_type: published number: 2 publisher: IMT Institute for Advanced Studies Lucca pages: 53 institution: IMT Institute for Advanced Studies Lucca issn: 2279-6894 citation: Bonollo, Michele and Crimaldi, Irene and Flori, Andrea and Pammolli, Fabio and Riccaboni, Massimo Systemic importance of financial institutions: regulations, research, open issues, proposals.
