cross-border banks. Using a sample of 25 large European banking groups with subsidiaries in Central, Eastern and Southern … Europe (CESE), we analyze the impact of a CESE credit shock on the capital buffers needed by the sample banking groups under … different forms of ring-fencing. Our simulations show that under stricter forms of ring-fencing, sample banking groups have …

Under … different model specifications, the banking industry is either a monopoly bank or a competitive banking industry. If the nominal … rate of interest (rate of inflation) is below (above) some threshold, a monopolistic banking system will always result in a …
