This paper develops a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model with interactions between an heterogeneous banking sector and other private agents. We introduce endogenous default probabilities for both firms and banks, and allow for bank regulation and liquidity injection into the...

We examine the spillover effects between sovereigns and banks in a model with a heterogeneous banking system. An increase in sovereign's default risk affects financial intermediaries through two channels in this model. First, banks' funding costs might increase, inducing higher interest rates on...

[eng] This paper sheds a new light on the puzzling negative relationship between nominal stock returns and expected inflation. The assertion that stocks offer a hedge against inflation is theoretically founded on the Fisher identity. Contrary to this fundamental view, recent empirical tests...

We use data on loan loss provisions and total loans over the period spanning 1995 until 2009 to estimate a stress testing model for the Luxembourg banking sector. The sample encompasses the recent global crisis and covers a period in which the average probability of default of the Luxembourg...

This paper develops a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model with interactions between a heterogeneous banking sector and other private agents. We introduce endogenous default probabilities for both firms and banks, and allow for bank regulation and liquidity injection into the interbank...

This study analyses productive efficiency in banking and scale and scope economies using stochastic frontier analysis. The European banking sector underwent great changes during the period under study (1995-2000), featuring a marked increase in competition. Empirical results suggest that...

Cette analyse emploie le modèle des corrélations conditionnelles dynamiques développées récemment par Engle (2002) pour déterminer le caractère synchrone ou asynchrone des mouvements des taux de croissance de la valeur ajoutée des différents secteurs économiques au Luxembourg. Le...

Dans cette contribution, nous tentons de mener une analyse sur la compatibilité du comportement de l'Eurosystème en matière de conduite de la politique monétaire avec la règle dite de Taylor. Cette dernière a pour ambition d'établir une ligne de conduite qui s'impose aux autorités...
