The threshold would be the law.

  So you're not interested in scandals of the form "bank sold foo bar to pensioners as being a risk-free high-interest investment"? There are a few tens of thousands of banks in Europe that haven't been in trouble with the law. By your condition, the number of banking scandals in my home country (Norway) is either zero or one since I was born, and that possibly law-breaking scandal involved nine or ten customers (they asked the regulator once and assumed that the answer applied to nine similar deals). The world outside the Garden of Eden doesn't really get much better. The low cost of account insurance in most of the world tells a similar story: banking largely functions, even if not without warts and mishaps.
