We compare seven established risk elicitation methods and investigate how they robustly explain eleven kinds of risky behavior with 760 individuals. Risk measures are positively correlated; however, their performance in explaining behavior is heterogeneous and, therefore, difficult to assess ex...

The improvement of prudential regulation in the crisis-ridden Asian countries is suggested by international organizations as a major lesson to be implemented. The effect from tighter regulation can be estimated by simulating the crisis with new rules. The analysis for Thailand's commercial banks...

Chinese local politicians are set growth targets in their region that are relative to each other. Growth is stimulated by debt-financed programs which are mainly financed via bank...

The ex ante theory of collateral states that better informed lenders, such as informal lenders, rely less on collateral. We test this by contrasting the use of collateral between formal and informal lenders in the same market. Indeed, formal lenders rely more often on collateral, controlling for...

Der antizyklische Kapitalpuffer und der Kapitalerhaltungspuffer wurden für die Verstetigung der Kreditvergabe sowie eine höhere Resilienz des Finanzsystems geschaffen. Fraglich bleibt, wie gut diese Puffer speziell im Abschwung in der Praxis von den Finanzinstituten genutzt werden. Dem...

Der antizyklische Eigenkapitalpuffer, dessen Anforderung Kreditinstitute erfüllen müssen, soll die Widerstandskraft des Bankensystems stärken und dadurch die Kreditversorgung verstetigen. Damit sollen starke Auswirkungen des Finanzzyklus und entsprechende Krisen abgeschwächt werden. Dieses...
