The Cleveland Fed is trying their hand at breaking down economics for "people who aren't policy wonks." In this video, a researcher breaks down the 4 C's of systemic risk: contagion, correlation, concentration and context and then proposes a three tiered system for regulating these types of financial institutions (that part comes in at 5:58). It's a pretty good explanation although I did find the technique somewhat familiar.
