      Eisert, Tim; Eufinger, Christian (2018-05-02)

      Radev, Deyan; Gropp, Reint (2017-08-01)

      Castiglionesi, Fabio; Feriozzi, Fabio; Lóránth, Gyöngyi; Loriana Pelizzon (2014-03-01)
      Banks can deal with their liquidity risk by holding liquid assets (self-insurance), by participating in interbank markets (coinsurance), or by using flexible financing instruments, such as bank capital (risk-sharing). We ...

      Aldasoro, Iñaki; Alves, Iván (2015-05-01)
      Research on interbank networks and systemic importance is starting to recognise that the web of exposures linking banks balance sheets is more complex than the single-layer-of-exposure approach. We use data on exposures ...
    • Natural Disaster and Bank Stability: Evidence from the U.S. Financial System 

      Noth, Felix; Schüwer, Ulrich (2018-04-01)
      We show that property damages from weather-related natural disasters significantly weaken the stability of banks with business activities in affected regions, as reflected in lower z-scores, higher probabilities of default, ...
    • On the Impact of Leveraged Buyouts on Bank Systemic Risk 

      Grupp, Marcel (2015-04-01)
      Although banks are at the center of systemic risk, there are other institutions that contribute to it. With the publication of the leveraged lending guideline in March 2013, the U.S. regulators show that they are especially ...
    • P2P Lending versus Banks: Cream Skimming or Bottom Fishing? 

      de Roure, Calebe; Pelizzon, Loriana; Thakor, Anjan V. (2018-04-18)
      We derive three testable predictions from a bank-P2P lender model of competition: (i) P2P lending grows when some banks are faced with exogenously higher regulatory costs, (ii) P2P loans are riskier than bank loans; and ...

    • Recapitalization, Bailout, and Long-run Welfare in a Dynamic Model of Banking 

      Modena, Andrea (2021-03-01)
      This paper studies the dynamic trade-off between the short-run costs and the long-run benefits of bank bailouts. In the model, banks leverage thanks to their cost advantage at monitoring firms, but hold precautionary capital ...

      Tröger, Tobias H. (2015-06-02)
      This paper looks into the specific influence that the European banking union will have on (future) bank client relationships. It shows that the intended regulatory influence on market conditions in principle serves as a ...

    • Spillovers of Funding Dry-ups 

      Aldasoro, Inaki; Balke, Florian; Barth, Andreas; Eren, Egemen (2020-08-29)
      We uncover a new channel for spillovers of funding dry-ups. The 2016 US money market fund (MMF) reform exogenously reduced unsecured MMF funding for some banks. We use novel data to trace those banks to a platform for ...
    • Systemic Risk and Sovereign Debt in the Euro Area 

      Radev, Deyan (2013-12-13)
