Aggregation-theoretic monetary aggregation over the euro area, when countries are heterogeneous
Barnett, William A. - 2003
aggregation over countries. Our theory permits monitoring the effects of policy at the aggregate level over the euro area, while …We derive fundamental new theory for measuring monetary service flows aggregated over countries within the European … aggregation across countries over the heterogeneous representative agents, and we derive the resulting formulas for stochastic …

Developing statistical indicators of the integration of the euro area banking system
Manna,Michele - 2004
This paper discusses a wide range of indicators of the degree of integration of the euro area banking system. It is concerned with volume data, a less developed field of research compared with studies on prices/rates. We first set out a methodological framework, a mixture of elementary and more...

Interpolation and backdating with a large information set
Angelini, Elena; Henry, Jérôme; Marcellino, Massimiliano - 2003
Existing methods for data interpolation or backdating are either univariate or based on a very limited number of series, due to data and computing constraints that were binding until the recent past. Nowadays large datasets are readily available, and models with hundreds of parameters are fastly...

Bank mergers, competition and liquidity
Carletti, Elena; Hartmann, Philipp; Spagnolo, Giancarlo - 2003
We model the impact of bank mergers on loan competition, banks' reserve holdings and aggregate liquidity. Banks compete in a differentiated loan market, hold reserves against liquidity shocks, and refinance in the interbank market. A merger creates an internal money market that induces financial...

Measurement of contagion in banks' equity prices
Gropp, Reint; Moerman, Gerard - 2003
This paper uses the co-incidence of extreme shocks to banksu0092 risk to examine within country and across country contagion among large EU banks. Banksu0092 risk is measured by the first difference of weekly distances to default and abnormal returns. Using Monte Carlo simulations, the paper...

Deposit insurance, moral hazard and market monitoring
Gropp, Reint; Vesala, Jukka - 2004
The paper analyses the relationship between deposit insurance, debt-holder monitoring, and risk taking. In a stylised banking model we show that deposit insurance may reduce moral hazard, if deposit insurance credibly leaves out non-deposit creditors. Testing the model using EU bank level data...

Cooperation in international banking supervision
Holthausen, Cornelia; Rønde, Thomas - 2004
This paper analyzes cooperation between sovereign national authorities in the supervision and regulation of a multinational bank. We take a political economy approach to regulation and assume that supervisors maximize the welfare of their own country. The communication between the supervisors is...

Is inflation persistence intrinsic in industrial economies?
Levin, Andrew T.; Piger, Jeremy M. - 2004
We apply both classical and Bayesian econometric methods to characterize the dynamic behavior of inflation for twelve industrial countries over the period 1984-2003, using four different price indices for each country. In particular, we estimate a univariate autoregressive (AR) model for each...

Human capital externalities and proximity evidence from repeated cross-sectional data
Canton, Erik - 2009
Does schooling generate social returns in excess of the private returns captured by the individual who makes the human capital investment? As a strategy to detect human capital externalities I use Dutch survey data to estimate the impact of the average human capital stock in a region on...
