We apply text analysis to Twitter messages in Spanish to build a sentiment- based risk index for the financial sector in Mexico. We classify a sample of tweets for the period 2006-2019 to identify messages in response to positive or negative shocks to the Mexican financial sector. We use a...

We apply sentiment analysis to Twitter messages in Spanish to build a sentiment risk index for the financial sector in Mexico. We classify a sample of tweets from 2006-2019 to identify messages in response to a positive or negative shock to the Mexican financial sector, relative to merely...

This paper examines the driving effect of economic policy uncertainty on bank systemic risk with a distinction between systemic linkage and bank tail risk. Using bank-level data of 25 economies during the period 2010-2020, we find consistent and robust evidence that policy uncertainty is...

Global financial crisis has intensively affected U.S. economy and global financial system. There are still many problems remain unsolved after the first shock of crisis such as effectiveness of policy measures, concerns on public interventions etc. This paper analyzes the relationship between...

We propose a multi-period clearing framework, where the level of systemic risk is mitigated through provision of liquidity assistance. The interbank liability network evolves stochastically over time, and assets of defaulted banks are sold to qualified banks within the network through a first...

The rhythm of financial development in south-eastern Europe has accelerated. In a setting of low inflation and robust growth, domestic credit and cross-border flows are expanding. This process can strengthen real convergence by supporting productivity gains that enhance competitiveness and a...

This paper investigates the effects of contagion in interbank lending networks. I introduce a new measure based on the harmonic distance of Acemoglu et al. (2015b) and, motivated by their theoretical results, compare it to well-known centrality measures already applied in the systemic risk...

Systemic risk is a fundamental constituent of contemporary financial systems. For the past decades a growing number of abrupt upsets in financial systems could be observed. Due to previous experiences, politicians and regulators prefer to identify the off enders outside the system or to blame...

We quantify the capital shortfall that results from a global financial crisis by using a macro-finance dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model that captures the interactions between the financial and real sectors of the economy. We show that a crisis similar to that observed in 2008...
