Default probabilities and default correlations
Erlenmaier, Ulrich; Gersbach, Hans - 2001 - First Version: April 2000, This Version: October 2001
Starting from the Merton framework for firm defaults, we provide the analytics and robustness of the relationship between default correlations. We show that loans with higher default probabilities will not only have higher variances but also higher correlations between loans. As a consequence,...

Model risk : an agency theoretic approach ; conference paper
Hakenes, Hendrik; Schlegel, Friederike - 2013
In the recent financial crisis, risk management tools have been proven inadequate. Model risk, a key component of bank risk, has shown its negative impact. It seems that risk models did not cover the included risks comprehensively and were not kept up-to-date by banks, and also rating agencies....

Preventing banking crises - with private insurance?
Gersbach, Hans - In: CESifo economic studies : CESifo, a joint initiative of … 59 (2013) 4, pp. 609-627
In this article, we review the functioning of private insurance against banking crises and identify its potential. The essential idea is that banks are recapitalized by private investors when negative events would otherwise cause a write-down of capital—or even bank insolvency. There are two...

The dynamics of deposit insurance and the consumption trap
Gersbach, Hans; Wenzelburger, Jan - 2001
We investigate a banking system subject to repeated macroeconomic shocks and show that without deposit rate control, the banking system collapses with certainty. Any initial level of reserves will delay the collapse but not avoid it. Even without a banking collapse, the economy still converges...

Capital charges under Basel II : corporate credit risk modelling and the macro economy
Carling, Kenneth; Jacobson, Tor; Lindé, Jesper; … - 2002
The Internal Ratings Based (IRB) approach for capital determination is one of the cornerstones in the proposed revision of the Basel Committee rules for bank regulation. We evaluate the IRB approach using historical business loan portfolio data from a major Swedish bank for the period 1994 to...

Banking with Contingent Contracts, Macroeconomic Risks, and Banking Crises
Gersbach, Hans - 2008
We examine banking competition when deposit or loan contracts contingent on macroeconomic shocks become feasible. We show that the risk allocation is efficient, provided that banks are not bailed out. In this case, banks may shift part of the risk to depositors. The private sector insures the...
