We address the paradox that financial innovations aimed at risk-sharing appear to have made the world riskier. Financial innovations facilitate hedging idiosyncratic risks among agents; however, aggregate risks can be hedged only with liquid assets. When risk-sharing is primitive, agents...

The aim of this study is to assess the potential to introduce a positive neutral rate for the countercyclical capital buffer (nCCyB) at 0.5%, 1%, 1.5% and 2% in 20 EU countries over the period 2014Q4 up to 2023Q3. Prudential data at country-level was used to estimate the level of banks'...

Our paper investigates Indonesia's systemically important banks (SIBs) using theoretical approaches-CoVaR, marginal expected shortfall (MES), and SRISK-to compare with the Basel guidelines as benchmark. We use Indonesian banks' market and supervisory data over the 2008-2019 period. The research...

The avenue to find a balanced assessment of systemic financial institutions needs the integration of macro and micro granular datasets. This paper investigates how macroeconomic shocks affect systemic risk through several transmission channels. Employing Indonesia datasets over 2008–2019, we...

This article begins with an analysis of banking flows in the euro zone, through a complex network, from 2006 to 2020. This analysis allows us to observe the topology of the network through different phases of the business cycle. It is obtained that there is greater fragmentation in the network...

In this paper, we explore how asset returns used as a proxy to detect interconnectedness of systemic risk in the financial system. Our sample employs a mixture of Indonesian banks' public and prudential data over the 2012-2019 period. Using the Principal Component Analysis and Granger causality...

The objective of this paper is to empirically examine the moderating effect of ownership structure on the relationship between systemic risk and corporate governance. It complements prior research by studying the relationship between the proportion of capital held by state institutions and...

As part of the completion of the European Banking Union, the decision on the organization of institutional and deposit protection is still pending. The mere linking of these two objectives, which are by no means necessarily identical in terms of content, has recently led to heated controversy....

Stock repurchases of banks have become an increasingly popular instrument of banks' payout policies after the Great Financial Crisis. Recent empirical evidence documents that stock repurchases are particularly popular among global systemically important banks that tolerate relatively high levels...

Prior studies suggest that regulatory uncertainty is potentially detrimental to the wider economic performance, to the effectiveness of regulatory measures and to the objective of harmonized rules and a level playing field across jurisdictions. This paper discusses on the applicability of banks'...
