Die Auswirkungen ausgewählter Wirkungskanäle auf die Veränderung des Zinsergebnisses für das restliche Jahr 2024 der deutschen Banken sollen abgeschätzt werden. Dabei werden die Effekte durch Umschichtungen von Sichteinlagen in Termineinlagen sowie Preiseffekte und Volumeneffekte durch...

Understanding the impact of changing interest rates onto banks' net interest margin is of central importance for various stakeholders. The primary focus lies often on changes in the interest level. However, changes in the steepness are a second driver which also significantly impacts banks'...

We analyse the ftnancial forecasts small and medium-sized German banks provided in several waves of a quantitative survey, called LIRES, and compare them with the results the banks actually realized. Based on this unique data set, we ftnd that the predictions are relevant, especially concerning...

We introduce an empirical approach to studying credit risk in the corporate loan portfolio. First, historical adverse scenarios for loss rates are identified at sector level. Second, we estimate the empirical association between loan losses and economic growth and then apply it to a scenario of...

Die Entwicklung des Zinseinkommens der Banken in Deutschland wird in Szenarien abgeschätzt, und zwar für die Jahre 2023 und 2024. Es zeigt sich, dass das Zinseinkommen im Basis-Szenario im Vergleich zum Jahr 2022 zunimmt, wenn man berücksichtigt, dass die Banken an Zinsaufwendungen sparen,...

Es wird ein empirischer Ansatz vorgestellt, wie die Kreditrisiken im Unternehmenskreditportfolio untersucht werden können. Dabei werden Stress-Szenarien für Verlustquoten auf der Ebene der einzelnen Sektoren historisch ermittelt. Alternativ schätzen wir die empirische Assoziation zwischen...

Using data from a quantitative survey of German banks at three points in time (2015, 2017 and 2019), we analyze the impact of changes in the interest rate level on banks' net interest income and the countermeasures they take. A decline in the interest rate level has a more negative impact on net...

Using granular data of German banks for the 2003 to 2018 period, we analyze the determinants of bank rates on retail deposits. We find that a bank's rate on sight deposits is especially low if the bank operates in rural districts, if it is not exposed to strong competition and if it provides...

Expected returns can hardly be estimated from time series data. Therefore, many recent papers suggest investing in the global minimum variance portfolio. The weights of this portfolio depend only on the return variances and covariances, but not on the expected returns. The weights of the global...

Carrying out interbank contagion simulations for the German banking sector for the period from the first quarter of 2008 to the second quarter of 2011, we obtain the following results: (i) The system becomes less vulnerable to direct interbank contagion over time. (ii) The loss distribution for...
