We employ a unique hand-collected dataset and a novel methodology to examine systemic risk before and after the largest … U.S. banking crisis of the 20th century. Our systemic risk measure captures both the credit risk of an individual bank … that we can measure how predisposed the entire network was to risk, where risk was concentrated, and how the failure of …

We analyze link between mortgage-related regulatory penalties levied on banks and the level of systemic risk in the U ….S. banking industry. We employ a frequency decomposition of volatility spillovers (connectedness) to assess system-wide risk … the public, long-term systemic risk among banks tends to increase. From the dynamic perspective, bank penalties represent …

We first present a simple model of post-crisis policymaking driven by both public and private interests. Using a novel dataset covering 94 countries between 1973 and 2015, we then establish that financial crises can lead to government interventions in financial markets. Consistent with a public...

To reconcile the mixed empirical results, we develop a theoretical model whose main implication is a concave impact of regulation on the probability of a crisis. We test this relationship by applying a Probit model of a non-linear specification to annual data from 1999 to 2011 drawn from 132...

ante risk assessment and derive risk premia for every balance sheet item where liabilities are differentiated according to … priority rights. We find that risk premia reflect both idiosyncratic risk and risk of contagion (network risk). Moreover, we … show that network risk magnifies the gap between the risk premia of equity and debt. We also perform comparative statics …

Using Credit Default Swap spreads, we construct a forward-looking, market-implied carbon risk factor and show that … carbon risk affects firms’ credit spread. The effect is larger for European than North American firms and varies … to carbon risk when market-wide concern about climate change risk is elevated. Finally, lenders expect that adjustments …

This paper estimates a bivariate HEAVY system including daily and intra-daily volatility equations and its macro-augmented asymmetric power extension. It focuses on economic factors that exacerbate stock market volatility and represent major threats to financial stability. In particular, it...

We consolidate alternative ways for identifying stable and stressful scenarios in the S&P 500 market to construct contagion tests for recipient markets vulnerable to disturbances from this source market. The S&P 500 is decomposed into discrete conditions of: (1) Tranquil versus turbulent...
