Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2011 in the subject Economics - International Economic Relations, grade: 1,0, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (Professur für Volkswirtschaftslehre, insb. Wirtschaftspolitik und Internationale Makroökonomik Prof. Dr. Beatrice Weder di Mauro ), language: English, abstract: As a result of the worldwide financial crisis which occurred in 2007, an intensive discussion about preventing possible future crisis like that has arisen. One of the key points in these debates is the necessity to protect the economy from negative effects of failing financial institutions. These can be dramatic what you can see by reflecting the facts of the recent crisis that is characterized by big bank failures and so caused domino effects. Thus it is very important to reduce the so called systemic relevance of financial institutions. But the design of a framework that contains systemic risk effectively is not just a simple task, because you have to consider a couple of factors in view of creating an effective solution. This paper presents a short overview of the issue of hazard that is caused by systemic relevant institutions (SIFI) and the content of the actual debate by illustrating the costs the institutions cause and the presentation and evaluation of several approaches of economic experts with regard to the topic of reducing systemic relevance. Finally the paper tries to draw a conclusion.
Book Synopsis A Safer World Financial System by : Stijn Claessens
Download or read book A Safer World Financial System written by Stijn Claessens and published by Centre for Economic Policy Research. This book was released on 2010 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most countries lack an effective framework for dealing with failing systemically important financial institutions (SIFIs). This report argues that any serious attempt to stabilize the global financial system must include carefully crafted policies for restructuring these "too big to fail" cross-border institutions. The report recommends approaches for resolving SIFIs in a way that will maintain national sovereignty, enhance international financial integration, and preserve financial stability.

Book Synopsis Activities Are Not Enough! by : Jeremy C. Kress
Download or read book Activities Are Not Enough! written by Jeremy C. Kress and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 19 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the financial crisis, policymakers have developed two different approaches to systemic risk arising from nonbank financial firms such as insurance companies and investment banks. The first, dubbed an entity-based approach, empowers a public entity like the Financial Stability Oversight Council or Financial Stability Board to designate individual nonbank systemically important financial institutions for enhanced regulation and supervision. The second, known as an activities-based approach, seeks to regulate financial activities that can produce systemic risk. During the first several years after the crisis, governments and multi-national standard setters embraced both entity- and activities-based approaches to the problem of nonbank systemic risk. More recently, however, an emerging view has begun to dominate financial regulatory circles: that regulators should focus principally on an activities-based, rather than an entity-based, approach.This book chapter challenges this emerging consensus. It argues that, in the absence of entity-based designations, a purely activities-based approach will expose the financial system to the same risks that the world experienced in 2008. This chapter, which is substantially based on a more detailed law review article by the authors, focuses on the international dimensions of nonbank systemic risk regulation and the shift by multi-national standard-setters to an activities-based approach.
Book Synopsis Creating a Safer Financial System by : José Vinãls
Download or read book Creating a Safer Financial System written by José Vinãls and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2013-05-14 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S., the U.K., and more recently, the E.U., have proposed policy measures directly targeting complexity and business structures of banks. Unlike other, price-based reforms (e.g., Basel 3 and G-SIFI surcharges), these proposals have been developed unilaterally with material differences in scope, design and implementation schedules. This may exacerbate cross-border regulatory arbitrage and put a further burden on consolidated supervision and cross-border resolution. This paper provides an analysis of the potential implications of implementing different structural policy measures. It proposes a pragmatic and coordinated approach to development of these policies to reduce risk of regulatory arbitrage and minimize unintended consequences. In doing so, it also aims to identify a set of common policy measures that countries could adopt to re-scope bank business models and corporate structures.
Book Synopsis Regulating Nonbanks by : Christina Parajon Skinner
Download or read book Regulating Nonbanks written by Christina Parajon Skinner and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Article examines a relatively recent addition to the institutional architecture of financial regulation in the United States: the Financial Stability Oversight Council (FSOC). In particular, it draws attention to a flaw in the design of the Council's power to designate nonbank financial companies as “systemically important financial institutions,” commonly known as “SIFIs.” Specifically, the Article argues that the binary nature of the designation power has underappreciated costs, which make the SIFI designation system less effective and efficient than it otherwise could be.The Article makes both positive and normative claims. First, it draws attention to the ways in which a binary designation power incentivizes certain financial institution behavior, such as litigation and restructuring. A binary designation power can also influence regulatory behavior by creating an opportunity for politicized decision making. The Article highlights the social and economic costs of these behaviors, which include the potential for underinclusive supervisory scope, increased information asymmetries, and distorted business decisions. Such costs can undermine the SIFI stability agenda as well as financial institution efficiency. Second, in teasing out the normative implications of that cost analysis, the Article argues for a more marginal -- nuanced -- apparatus for regulating nonbank financial institutions. In doing so, the Article also probes the broader question of whether the entity-based paradigm is the most effective regulatory strategy for appraising and addressing systemic risk in the nonbank arena. Ultimately, by exploring how SIFI policy should be revised to reflect these normative insights, the Article develops a broader theory about post-crisis regulatory design -- that regulators have undervalued supervision, and the information it produces, as a tool for systemic risk management outside the traditional banking system.

Book Synopsis Systemically Important Financial Institutions by : Jessica Fox
Download or read book Systemically Important Financial Institutions written by Jessica Fox and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Global Financial Crisis of 2008/2009 has changed the global perspective of regulating financial institutions and further highlighted the need to pursue financial stability. The monitoring and counteracting of systemic risk was identified as the key to achieving a stable financial system. Although South Africa weathered the Global Financial Crises well in comparison to other jurisdictions like the USA it has, as a G20 member, adopted the movement toward achieving financial stability through the implementation of a Twin Peaks model of functional financial regulation by objective via the Financial Sector Regulation Act 9 of 2017(FSRA). According to this model, the central bank as guardian of financial stability is given the power to designate certain financial institutions as systemically important financial institutions (SIFIs) given their ability to trigger systemic collapse. This research accordingly considers the designation of SIFIs as provided for in the FSRA. Furthermore, a comparative study of Hong Kong s financial regulatory system and designation of SIFIs is considered and analysed. It is concluded and recommended that Hong Kong s proactive approach should be considered and potentially adopted with the aim of effectively regulating SIFIs instead of over-regulating them when giving effect to the FSRA.

Book Synopsis Canada by : International Monetary Fund. Monetary and Capital Markets Department
Download or read book Canada written by International Monetary Fund. Monetary and Capital Markets Department and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2019-06-24 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Financial System Stability Assessment paper discusses that Canada has enjoyed favorable macroeconomic outcomes over the past decades, and its vibrant financial system continues to grow robustly. However, macrofinancial vulnerabilities—notably, elevated household debt and housing market imbalances—remain substantial, posing financial stability concerns. Various parts of the financial system are directly exposed to the housing market and/or linked through housing finance. The financial system would be able to manage severe macrofinancial shocks. Major deposit-taking institutions would remain resilient, but mortgage insurers would need additional capital in a severe adverse scenario. Housing finance is broadly resilient, notwithstanding some weaknesses in the small non-prime mortgage lending segment. Although banks’ overall capital buffers are adequate, additional required capital for mortgage exposures, along with measures to increase risk-based differentiation in mortgage pricing, would be desirable. This would help ensure adequate through-the cycle buffers, improve mortgage risk-pricing, and limit procyclical effects induced by housing market corrections.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this paper, we provide an overview of the concerns surrounding the variations in the calculation of risk-weighted assets (RWAs) across banks and jurisdictions and how this might undermine the Basel III capital adequacy framework. We discuss the key drivers behind the differences in these calculations, drawing upon a sample of systemically important banks from Europe, North America, and Asia Pacific. We then discuss a range of policy options that could be explored to fix the actual and perceived problems with RWAs, and improve the use of risk-sensitive capital ratios.

Book Synopsis The Regulatory Responses to the Global Financial Crisis by : Mr.Stijn Claessens
Download or read book The Regulatory Responses to the Global Financial Crisis written by Mr.Stijn Claessens and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2014-03-14 with total page 39 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We identify current challenges for creating stable, yet efficient financial systems using lessons from recent and past crises. Reforms need to start from three tenets: adopting a system-wide perspective explicitly aimed at addressing market failures; understanding and incorporating into regulations agents’ incentives so as to align them better with societies’ goals; and acknowledging that risks of crises will always remain, in part due to (unknown) unknowns – be they tipping points, fault lines, or spillovers. Corresponding to these three tenets, specific areas for further reforms are identified. Policy makers need to resist, however, fine-tuning regulations: a “do not harm” approach is often preferable. And as risks will remain, crisis management needs to be made an integral part of system design, not relegated to improvisation after the fact.

Book Synopsis Systemic Contingent Claims Analysis by : Mr.Andreas A. Jobst
Download or read book Systemic Contingent Claims Analysis written by Mr.Andreas A. Jobst and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2013-02-27 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent global financial crisis has forced a re-examination of risk transmission in the financial sector and how it affects financial stability. Current macroprudential policy and surveillance (MPS) efforts are aimed establishing a regulatory framework that helps mitigate the risk from systemic linkages with a view towards enhancing the resilience of the financial sector. This paper presents a forward-looking framework ("Systemic CCA") to measure systemic solvency risk based on market-implied expected losses of financial institutions with practical applications for the financial sector risk management and the system-wide capital assessment in top-down stress testing. The suggested approach uses advanced contingent claims analysis (CCA) to generate aggregate estimates of the joint default risk of multiple institutions as a conditional tail expectation using multivariate extreme value theory (EVT). In addition, the framework also helps quantify the individual contributions to systemic risk and contingent liabilities of the financial sector during times of stress.

Download or read book Switzerland written by International Monetary Fund. Monetary and Capital Markets Department and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2014-09-03 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Detailed Assessment of Compliance on the Basel Core Principles for Effective Banking Supervision on Switzerland discusses that significant portions of guidance and legislation related to qualitative risk management and control standards are not as detailed or comprehensive as in many other major countries and need to be updated and selectively strengthened. Supervisory risk assessments and guidance to auditors, as the extended supervisory arm of the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA), need to be further materially improved, beyond what is now envisioned. Additional skilled resources within FINMA are necessary to meet these goals and to conduct more on-site supervisory work. The responsibilities and objectives of FINMA that emphasize protecting creditors, investors and insured persons, as well as ensuring proper functioning of the financial market, should be clearly stated in legislation as pre-eminent. It is recommended to increase FINMA resources, especially for on-site inspection and risk expertise. Clarify and limit the cases in which the Board can become involved in supervisory decisions and improve conflict code.
