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 develop a dynamic computational network model of the banking system where fire sales provide the amplification mechanism of financial shocks. Each period a finite number of banks offers a large, but finite, number of loans to households. Banks with excess liquidity also offer loans to other...

We examine systemic risk in the Chinese banking system by estimating the conditional value at risk (CoVaR), the … China. Although these measures show different patterns, our results suggest that systemic risk in the Chinese banking system … that Chinese banks are at greater risk according to the CoVaR, the SII and the VI approaches, but have the lowest MES. …

Do macroprudential regulations on residential lending influence commercial lending behavior too? To answer this question, we identify the compositional changes in banks' supply of credit using the variation in their holdings of residential mortgages on which extra capital requirements were...

We build a stylized dynamic general equilibrium model with financial frictions to analyze costs and benefits of capital requirements in the short-term and long-term. We show that since increasing capital requirements limits the aggregate loan supply, the equilibrium loan rate spread increases,...

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...

This paper deals with three aspects of spectacular oil price episodes such as the one witnessed in 2008. First, the concept of temporary explosiveness is proposed as an empirical method for capturing this type of behavior. The application of a recently proposed recursive unit root test shows...
