This book was released on 2015 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Basel III introduces the Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) and the Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR) to enhance bank liquidity regulation. This paper investigates whether accounting rules have pro-cyclical effects on these liquidity requirements. By rearranging the formulae for the LCR and the NSFR, this paper develops simplified models for examining such effects. Because of the linkages among accounting rules, capital rules and liquidity ratios, recurring fair value measurements are found to have pro-cyclical effects on both the LCR and the NSFR whereas the provision for loan losses is found to have positive effects on the NSFR although it has little impact on the LCR. The expected loss (EL) model for loan loss provisioning will introduce a new pro-cyclical impact on the NSFR even though it will lessen the pro-cyclical impact of the incurred-loss impairment model on the leverage ratio. Therefore, the contribution of accounting rules to the pro-cyclicality in the regulatory system will be enhanced as the paper also finds that the Basel III liquidity rules and the Basel III capital rules will reinforce each other's pro-cyclicality.

Download or read book The Cyclical Effects of the Basel III Capital Ratios written by Hélyoth Hessou and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New liquidity rules and capital buffers requirements are introduced by the Basel committee in its Basel III framework. As capital requirements play a key role in the supervision and regulation of banks, this paper investigates how the risk-sensitive LCR rule impacts the cyclical behavior of the capital ratios. The LCR rule introduces a regulatory tradeoff between banks' asset risk and liquidity, which was absent under Basel II. Based on the model by Heid (2007) , we derive three results on the capital ratios cyclical behavior under Basel III. First, we find that the short term liquidity rule adds to the risk-based capital procyclicality and then reduces the effectiveness of the buffers requirements. Second, the cyclical behavior of the newly introduced Basel III leverage ratio becomes risk sensitive when we introduce the LCR requirement. Third, the cushion of capital that banks hold above the minimum required is more likely to decrease during upturns. This will increase the probability that banks become bound with the capital ratio, something which could contribute to slow down any excessive asset growth in the banking sector during upturns.

Book Synopsis The Effects of Liquidity Regulation on Bank Assets and Liabilities by : Patty Duijm
Download or read book The Effects of Liquidity Regulation on Bank Assets and Liabilities written by Patty Duijm and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Under Basel III rules, banks became subject to a liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) from 2015 onward, to promote short-term resilience. Investigating the effects of such liquidity regulation on bank balance sheets, we find (i) cointegration of liquid assets and liabilities, to maintain a short-term liquidity buffer; and (ii) that adjustment in the liquidity ratio is skewed towards the liability side. This finding contrasts with established wisdom that compliance with the LCR is mainly driven by changes in liquid assets. Moreover, microprudential regulation has not prevented a procyclical liquidity cycle in secured financing that is strongly correlated with leverage.

Book Synopsis Accounting discretion of banks during a financial crisis by : Mr.Luc Laeven
Download or read book Accounting discretion of banks during a financial crisis written by Mr.Luc Laeven and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2009-09-01 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper shows that banks use accounting discretion to overstate the value of distressed assets. Banks' balance sheets overvalue real estate-related assets compared to the market value of these assets, especially during the U.S. mortgage crisis. Share prices of banks with large exposure to mortgage-backed securities also react favorably to recent changes in accounting rules that relax fair-value accounting, and these banks provision less for bad loans. Furthermore, distressed banks use discretion in the classification of mortgage-backed securities to inflate their books. Our results indicate that banks' balance sheets offer a distorted view of the financial health of the banks.

Book Synopsis Measures Aimed at Mitigating Pro Cyclical Effects of the Capital Requirements Framework by : Marianne Ojo D Delaney PhD
Download or read book Measures Aimed at Mitigating Pro Cyclical Effects of the Capital Requirements Framework written by Marianne Ojo D Delaney PhD and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As well as highlighting the importance of introducing counter cyclical capital buffers, this paper draws attention to the need for greater focus on “more forward looking provisions”, as well as provisions which are aimed at addressing losses and unforeseen problems attributed to “maturity transformation of short-term deposits into long term loans.” Whilst the need for forward looking provisioning has been echoed by some authorities on the literature, the paper also adds weight to the argument through its attempt to link such an argument to the ever increasing prominence assumed by liquidity risks - since liquidity also contributes to pro cyclicality.“The complex response of financial institutions to deteriorating market conditions - which to a large extent, is attributed to liquidity shortfalls which reflected on and off balance sheet maturity mismatches and excessive levels of leverage, has resulted in an increasingly important role for liquidity provided by central banks in the funding of bank balance sheets.” Owing to such increased importance of liquidity risks, this paper also attempts to highlight why the Basel Committee's Counter Cyclical Buffer Proposal - a response to the recent financial crisis (which to a significant extent, focuses on banking sector capital requirements), should also take greater account of more forward looking provisions. In so doing, it draws attention to the importance of coupling forward looking provisions (as well as other measures) with counter cyclical charges and why this provides a better alternative to the mere introduction of counter cyclical capital charges.

This book was released on 2016-04-08 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper presents a new version of MAPMOD (Mark II) to study the effectiveness of macroprudential regulations. We extend the original model by explicitly modeling the housing market. We show how household demand for housing, house prices, and bank mortgages are intertwined in what we call a deadly embrace. Without macroprudential policies, this deadly embrace naturally leads to housing boom and bust cycles, which can be very costly for the economy, as shown by the Global Financial Crisis of 2008-09.

This book was released on 2013-10-06 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The countercyclical capital buffer (CCB) was proposed by the Basel committee to increase the resilience of the banking sector to negative shocks. The interactions between banking sector losses and the real economy highlight the importance of building a capital buffer in periods when systemic risks are rising. Basel III introduces a framework for a time-varying capital buffer on top of the minimum capital requirement and another time-invariant buffer (the conservation buffer). The CCB aims to make banks more resilient against imbalances in credit markets and thereby enhance medium-term prospects of the economy—in good times when system-wide risks are growing, the regulators could impose the CCB which would help the banks to withstand losses in bad times.

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 Essays on Financial Institutions Capital and Liquidity Regulation by : Hélyoth Hessou
Download or read book Essays on Financial Institutions Capital and Liquidity Regulation written by Hélyoth Hessou and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The review of the articles included in this thesis can be summarized as follows: The first essay examines the behavior of regulatory capital adjustment in a multiple capital requirement regime such as the Basel III one. This essay is motivated by the fact that the existing bank capital adjustment models are designed to address adjustment towards a single capital ratio. Our findings are numerous. Firstly, it appears that the joint regulation of two capital ratios (adjusted and unadjusted for risk) is assimilated to the regulation of a single capital ratio (not adjusted to risk), whose limit is assimilated to the value of a call option written on (regulatory) asset risk ratio. An analysis of both the Canadian and US experiences in the joint capital regulation provides further justification for the relative resilience of Canadian banks (in comparison with their US counterparts) during the last subprime crisis of late 2007. The second essay is devoted to the analysis of the counter-cyclical buffer standard introduced under Basel III. This standard aims to smooth undesirable cyclical fluctuations in bank capital as this negatively affect the granting of credit by banks, especially in times of crisis. This work aims to quantify the required level of cushion by taking into account the cyclical components of bank capital. The implications of the new liquidity standards are also discussed. The third essay analyzes the appropriateness of the new counter-cyclical capital standards of Basel III to Canadian credit unions regulation. Based on data extracted from Canadian financial cooperatives balance sheets over the period between 1996 and 2014, this essay shows that unlike banking institutions, credit union capital is already countercyclical, and therefore the introduction of the countercyclical buffer would not alter their intermediation activities. However, the analysis also reveals that the capital cushion of under-capitalized credit unions is pro-cyclical, and therefore these credit unions need close monitoring from regulators regarding their adjustment behaviors following countercyclical measures’ adoption. v The fourth essay is an extension of the previous one in that it analyzes the effect of regulatory capital on lending by Canadian credit unions. Our findings suggest that the growth in the Canadian credit unions loan portfolio is positively associated with the level of capitalization. In contrast, we uncover a negative relation between change in credit union capital and the growth of their lending portfolio. This finding suggests that credit unions should be encouraged to hold adequate levels of capital. This can be achieved through the implementation of conservative and countercyclical capital requirements as advocated for banks.
Book Synopsis Usability of Bank Capital Buffers: The Role of Market Expectations by : José Abad
Download or read book Usability of Bank Capital Buffers: The Role of Market Expectations written by José Abad and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2022-01-28 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the COVID shock, supervisors encouraged banks to use capital buffers to support the recovery. However, banks have been reluctant to do so. Provided the market expects a bank to rebuild its buffers, any draw-down will open up a capital shortfall that will weigh on its share price. Therefore, a bank will only decide to use its buffers if the value creation from a larger loan book offsets the costs associated with a capital shortfall. Using market expectations, we calibrate a framework for assessing the usability of buffers. Our results suggest that the cases in which the use of buffers make economic sense are rare in practice.
