This thesis examines the institution of suretyship, with particular attention to the relationship between creditor, guarantor, and principal debtor. It delves into the rules governing joint and several liability in suretyship and the exceptions that can be raised, comparing how different legal systems regulate this institution. Although bank guarantees have been used less frequently than public guarantees during periods of crisis, they have remained essential in financing contracts and commercial transactions. Global economic uncertainty has made strengthening trust among economic operators crucial, increasing the relevance of surety guarantees. However, the rising risk of insolvency has led to stricter criteria for granting bank guarantees, with a stronger focus on debtors' creditworthiness. Recent events, such as the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine conflict, have profoundly reshaped the landscape of banking guarantees, highlighting the need for integration between public and private instruments. While bank guarantees have continued to play a key role in traditional credit, public guarantees have proven essential in supporting the economy during crises. The future challenge lies in harmonizing these instruments to ensure financial stability and access to credit in an ever-evolving economic environment.
La tesi analizza l’istituto della fideiussione, concentrandosi sulle sue implicazioni teoriche e pratiche. Viene approfondito il rapporto tra creditore, fideiussore e debitore principale, con particolare attenzione alla solidarietà fideiussoria e alle eccezioni opponibili. Infine, si offre un confronto comparativo con i sistemi giuridici stranieri. La fideiussione bancaria, sebbene meno impiegata direttamente rispetto alle garanzie pubbliche nei periodi di crisi, ha continuato a svolgere un ruolo cruciale per le transazioni commerciali e i contratti di finanziamento. In un contesto di incertezza globale, il rafforzamento della fiducia tra operatori economici è diventato fondamentale, e le fideiussioni hanno contribuito a garantire tale stabilità. Tuttavia, l’aumento dei rischi ha reso più stringenti i criteri di concessione delle garanzie bancarie, con un maggiore focus sulla solvibilità dei debitori. In sintesi, gli eventi recenti (pandemia da COVID-19 e conflitto bellico russo-ucraino) hanno trasformato il panorama delle garanzie e del credito bancario, evidenziando il ruolo complementare tra strumenti pubblici e privati. Mentre le fideiussioni bancarie hanno continuato a garantire il credito tradizionale, le garanzie pubbliche hanno giocato un ruolo critico per sostenere l’economia durante le crisi. La sfida futura sarà quella di integrare questi strumenti per assicurare stabilità e accesso al credito in un contesto economico ancora incerto.

Abstract
This thesis examines the institution of suretyship, with particular attention to the relationship between creditor, guarantor, and principal debtor. It delves into the rules governing joint and several liability in suretyship and the exceptions that can be raised, comparing how different legal systems regulate this institution. Although bank guarantees have been used less frequently than public guarantees during periods of crisis, they have remained essential in financing contracts and commercial transactions. Global economic uncertainty has made strengthening trust among economic operators crucial, increasing the relevance of surety guarantees. However, the rising risk of insolvency has led to stricter criteria for granting bank guarantees, with a stronger focus on debtors' creditworthiness. Recent events, such as the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine conflict, have profoundly reshaped the landscape of banking guarantees, highlighting the need for integration between public and private instruments. While bank guarantees have continued to play a key role in traditional credit, public guarantees have proven essential in supporting the economy during crises.
