We argue that the rapid asset growth of nonbank financial intermediaries (NBFIs) relative to banks is the outcome of transformations of risks between banks and NBFIs that increase the interconnectedness of the two sectors. These transformations are consistent with avoiding tighter, post-GFC bank...

This paper examines the relevance of banks' exposure to climate transition risk in the interbank lending market. Using transaction-level data on repo agreements, we first establish that banks with higher exposure to transition risk face significantly higher borrowing costs. This premium is a...

The financial crisis of 2007-2008 highlighted the risks that liquidity spirals pose to financial stability. We introduce a novel method for studying liquidity spirals and use this method to identify spirals before stock prices plummet and funding markets lock up. We show that liquidity spirals...

This study examines the systemic operational risk in Morocco's banking sector using a Panel VAR model based on data from three banks over ten years. The model includes real GDP, interbank rate (TMP), and bank credit, alongside indicators of operational, credit, and liquidity risks. The Impulse...

As a cornerstone of the modern financial safety net, the Lender of Last Resort (LOLR) is essential in mitigating liquidity crises and containing financial contagion. However, during periods of economic stability, risk-taking incentives in the banking sector may undermine its effectiveness. Using...

The proposed revision of the Swiss Banking Act introduces a public liquidity backstop (PLB) for distressed systemically important banks (SIBs), in part to facilitate resolution. We examine the impact of the PLB on fiscal balances, societal welfare, and the incentives of bank shareholders and...

This study investigates the demand for government securities by Kenyan banks using annual data from 2005 to 2022. Employing a fixed-effects panel regression model, the research examines the factors influencing banks' sovereign debt holdings and their implications for systemic risk. Key findings...

This paper proposes a new framework for measuring systemic financial risk, which combines the Diebold and Yilmaz spillover index model, complex network, and dimensionality reduction method. This framework simulates the process of risk contagion through network dynamics, accounting for the...

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused market turmoil and economic distress. To understand the effect of the pandemic on the U.S. financial systemic risk, we analyze the explanatory power of detailed COVID-19 data on three market-based systemic risk measures (SRMs): Conditional Value at Risk, Distress...

In this paper, we analyse data from 493 listed banks across 28 countries to investigate the impact and mechanisms through which banks' derivatives holdings influence systemic risk. Our empirical results indicate that banks' derivatives holdings significantly increase systemic risk. Regarding the...

This paper investigates the effectiveness of macroprudential policy across different phases of macro-financial cycles. Utilizing a panel threshold vector autoregression (PT-VAR) model, the study evaluates the asymmetric impacts of capital-based and borrower-based regulatory tools under varying...

The vulnerability of the global financial system to systemic risk-related adverse events has become more evident in recent years, as shown by the 2008 financial crisis and the global pandemic. This study examines systemic risk and its contributing factors using network analysis to understand how...

This study explores correlations and risk spillovers, essential concepts for financial risk management, among commodities (crude oil, gold, and a global commodities index) and emerging stock markets. Using the Asymmetric Dynamic Conditional Correlation-Conditional Value-at-Risk (ADCC-CoVaR)...

The COVID-19 pandemic precipitated a surge in the non-performing assets held by financial institutions, elevating systemic risk in financial networks. Therefore, developing strategies to alleviate this risk, with a focus on non-performing assets, has become a research area of interest. Supported...

This study examined the relationship between Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) reporting quality and systemic financial risk in European equity markets. A novel index was developed to evaluate reporting quality, combining three dimensions: the scope of disclosures, the extent of...
