1 Discussion of Systemic Risk and Stability in Financial Networks by Acemoglu, Ozdaglar, & Tahbaz-Salehi Jennifer La O Columbia University October 11, 2013
2 This Paper Provides a framework to think about how different financial networks may be more susceptible to systemic risk Two models: 1. Exogenous Network Structure 2. Endogenous Network Formation Two questions: 1. How does the network structure affect financial stability? 2. What externalities may occur in the equilibrium formation of networks?
3 An Exogenous Network Model of Contagion
4 A Financial Network Model of Contagion n banks indexed by j {1, n} y ij is the amount bank j owes bank i each bank also owes v to an outside (senior) creditor
5 A Financial Network Model of Contagion n banks indexed by j {1, n} y ij is the amount bank j owes bank i each bank also owes v to an outside (senior) creditor total liabilities of bank j y j + v where y j = y ij i =j The financial network is given by {y ij } Restrict attention to regular networks: all banks have identical claims and liabilities i, j =i y ij = y ji = y j =i for some y
6 Examples: Ring Network and Complete Network
7 Shocks Bank j receives returns z j {a, a ɛ} ɛ (a v, a) is a negative shock z j = a if not hit with negative shock z j (0, v) if hit with negative shock will default m banks get hit with negative shock. for now, let m = 1
8 Payments x js [0, y js ] denotes repayment by bank s to bank j bank j total cash flow bank j total liabilities z j + x js s =j y j + v
9 Seniority equity of bank j y(j) bank creditors v outside investors cash flow
10 Payment Equilibrium Equilibrium conditions for {x ij } { { x ij = y ij y j max 0, min }} y j, z j v + x js s =j Proposition An equilibrium always exists and is (generically) unique
11 Equilibrium Description In equilibrium, there are 3 types of banks: banks hit with the negative shock that default (zero equity) banks not hit with negative shock that default (zero equity) banks not hit with negative shock with positive equity
12 Measures of Financial Stability Stability Resilience 1 E [#defaults] 1 max (#defaults) these depend on m, ɛ, and the financial network structure let m = 1, consider these measures across different networks
13 Small Shock Regime Let ɛ denote some threshold ɛ = n (a v) total excess liquidity in the system Proposition Suppose ɛ < ɛ. Then y s.t. for y > y (i) the ring network is the least resilient, least stable (ii) the complete network is the most resilient, most stable
14 A Small Shock in the Ring Network
15 A Small Shock in the Ring Network
16 A Small Shock in the Complete Network
17 A Small Shock in the Complete Network
18 Large Shock Regime Let a δ-connected network be one in which a collection M N has weak connections (δ) to the rest of the network Proposition Suppose ɛ > ɛ and y > y. Then (i) the ring and complete networks are both the least resilient, least stable (ii) for small enough δ, any δ-connected network is strictly more stable, more resilient than the ring and complete
19 A Large Shock
20 Delta-Connected Network
21 A Large Shock in a Delta-Connected Network
22 Robust Yet Fragile Complete Network undergoes a phase transition most stable least stable Robust yet Fragile If banks are not very connected, then clearly killing one bank with a large shock can t propagate across system Does the Ring Network always have the most contagion?
23 Robust Yet Fragile Complete Network undergoes a phase transition most stable least stable Robust yet Fragile If banks are not very connected, then clearly killing one bank with a large shock can t propagate across system Does the Ring Network always have the most contagion? Answer: No
24 Multiple Shocks Proposition For m > 1, ɛ > ɛ m and intermediate values of y, (i) the complete network is the least stable (ii) the ring network is strictly more stable than the complete
25 Multiple Shocks in a Ring Network
26 Multiple Shocks in Ring: Alvarez-Barlevy (2013) For multiple shocks and y not too large, senior creditors do more shock absorption in the ring than in the complete network The closer shocks are to each other, the larger the losses to senior creditors rather than to other banks Alvarez-Barlevy (2013) Consider m random shocks in a Ring Network of n banks allocation is soln. to discrete version of circle covering problem well-studied geometric problem in applied probability (Stevens, 1939) Bose-Einstein statistics exact distribution of defaults
27 What do we learn? Network structure clearly related to stability, resilience, systemic risk But can we say something systematic about network structure and contagion?
28 What do we learn? Network structure clearly related to stability, resilience, systemic risk But can we say something systematic about network structure and contagion? This seems very diffi cult! Everything matters: structure of the network number and size of shocks (m and ɛ) where these shocks are located correlation of shocks (another component of systemic risk) asymmetric networks? Must be careful in applying these results Empirical challenge for researchers/policy-makers
29 Welfare
30 Welfare Effects of Contagion All of the previous analysis can be done without considering welfare Right now, welfare is independent of equilibrium allocation Contagion only reshuffl es resources across different claimants
31 Welfare Effects of Contagion In order for contagion to matter for welfare, you need some social surplus coming from positive equity banks Suppose banks with positive equity receive long-term return A but banks that default must prematurely liquidate project Then welfare is decreasing in number of defaults Welfare = (n #defaults) A + const.
32 Welfare Effects of Contagion In order for contagion to matter for welfare, you need some social surplus coming from positive equity banks Suppose banks with positive equity receive long-term return A but banks that default must prematurely liquidate project Then welfare is decreasing in number of defaults Welfare = (n #defaults) A + const. Plausible assumption in order for contagion to be bad = Keeping as many banks as possible alive is good Caveat: Suppose the banks closest to the bad shock bank also have bad investments/practices. Then welfare implications of these failing banks may be unclear.
33 Endogenous Network Formation
34 Endogenous Financial Network Now suppose banks make lending and borrowing decisions endogenous formation of the financial network Is the equilibrium formation of networks effi cient?
35 Endogenous Financial Network Now suppose banks make lending and borrowing decisions endogenous formation of the financial network Is the equilibrium formation of networks effi cient? The Game: take as given an exogenous opportunity network. 1. All banks i post interest rates R ij ( lj1,..., l jn ) for each j 2. After observing posted contracts, each bank chooses contracts 3. Given contracts, banks decide on how much to borrow l ij Generates a financial network, with y ij = R ij l ij
36 Summary of Main Results R ij (l j1,..., l jn ) contingent on borrower s lending behavior In 2-chain or 3-chain networks, the equilibrium is effi cient Why? terms induce right behavior of borrower
37 Summary of Main Results R ij (l j1,..., l jn ) contingent on borrower s lending behavior In 2-chain or 3-chain networks, the equilibrium is effi cient Why? terms induce right behavior of borrower If chains are longer, then equilibrium is not necessarily effi cient Externalities: overlending, insuffi ciently dense networks Why? terms do not induce right behavior of borrower of borrower
38 Contracts and Incomplete Markets Why not contracts that are contingent on who my borrower s borrower lends to... who my borrower s borrower s borrower lends to... Contracts contingent on the entire state of the network? more contingencies to complete the market State-contingent debt (contingent on realization of shocks)?
39 Contracts and Incomplete Markets Why not contracts that are contingent on who my borrower s borrower lends to... who my borrower s borrower s borrower lends to... Contracts contingent on the entire state of the network? more contingencies to complete the market State-contingent debt (contingent on realization of shocks)? What are the underlying frictions that excludes these contracts? Imperfect monitoring? Macro-prudential policy tools capital requirements, leverage ratios
40 Conclusion Very Interesting Paper! Important work in understanding the relation between networks and systemic risk A lot of work to be done in this area, both theoretically and empirically endogenous network formation measuring/predicting systemic risk: network structures, correlated shocks how this should inform stress tests, macroprudential policy
