I develop a model where the sovereign debt capacity depends on the capitalization of domestic banks. Low-capital banks optimally tilt their government bond portfolio toward domestic securities, linking their destiny to that of the sovereign. If the sovereign risk is sufficiently high,...

The objective of this research is to examine the inter-bank network of clients as a channel for credit risk transmission by groups of banks in Serbia characterized by different levels of credit risk (clusters). Two of the four observed groups of banks have experienced increase in NPLs through...

Considered among of the main causes of the 2007 financial crisis, the credit risk transfer activities deserve nowadays particular attention. This study discusses the continuous effectiveness of the credit risk transfer activities by investigating their effects on the bank risk, liquidity and...

This paper examines bank risk and its main determinants when gauged at various bank threshold variables. We apply the dynamic panel threshold estimation technique developed by Seo and Shin (2016) to a panel of 3,109 commercial banks in the United States during 2005–2019. A novel instrument is...

We develop a dynamic model of banking to assess the effects of liquidity and leverage requirements on banks' insolvency risk. In this model, banks face taxation, flotation costs of securities, and default costs and maximize shareholder value by making their financing, liquid asset holdings, and...

We estimate this model using a sample of 113 banks over the period of January 2011 to June...

The notion that some banks are “too big to fail” builds on the premise that governments will offer support to avoid the adverse consequences of their disorderly failures. However, this promise of support comes at a cost: Large, complex, or interconnected banks might take on more risk if they...

During the financial crisis, 114 European banks benefited from government support in Europe. We investigate the financial condition of banks before and after receiving state support using logit regressions. Our results indicate that the equity ratio, loan quality and bank size are the main...
