Solution

The correct answer is: the bank's creditors or depositors are required to convert their loans or deposits respectively into the bank's equity.

In a bail-in, the bank's own resources are used to increase its capital and reduce its debts. This is done by converting the debts owed to creditors or the deposits of large depositors into equity in the bank. This means that instead of being owed money by the bank, the creditors or depositors become part-owners of the bank. This can help to stabilize the bank and avoid the need for a bailout by the government.
