We estimate a dynamic structural banking model to examine the interaction between risk-weighted capital adequacy and unweighted leverage requirements, their differential impact on bank lending, and equity buffer accumulation in excess of regulatory minima. Tighter risk-weighted capital...

How does bank capital affect the relationship between bank concentration and risk taking? I develop a tractable dynamic model with heterogeneous financially constrained entrepreneurs and an imperfectly competitive banking sector. Based on the model, when the bank capital ratio exceeds the...

The industrial organization approach to banking is extended to analyze the effects of interbank market activity and regulatory liquidity requirements on bank behavior. A multi-stage decision situation allows for considering the interaction between credit risk and liquidity risk of banks. This...

We propose a methodology for measuring the market-implied capital of banks by subtracting from the market value of equity (market capitalization) a credit-spread-based correction for the value of shareholders' default option. We show that without such a correction, the estimated impact of a...

This study aims to explore how different capital ratios influence the risk-taking of large commercial banks of the USA. The study collects the data from FDIC for commercial banks from 2003 to 2019. We use a two-step GMM method to manage the endogeneity, simultaneity, heteroscedasticity, and...

Over the last years, the capital regulation of banks under the Basel framework has undergone a fundamental review. In parallel to the implementation of Basel III, a non-risk-sensitive leverage ratio and new liquidity standards are introduced. I study the combined impact of the new regime on the...

This study specifically explores the effect of domestic political and economic risks on risk-taking in the banking sector for 105 countries operating in six various geographical regions between 2009 and 2017. To the best of our knowledge, this may be the first study that attempts to conduct this...

This study investigates spillover effects of banks' liquidity risk control on the real economy by using the introduction of the Basel III liquidity regulation as shocks to banks. Since the Basel Committee's endorsement of this regulation in 2010, banks exposed to high liquidity risk have...
