1 Bank balance shees, lending and he macroeconomy ea Zicchino Bank of England Join HKIMR and CCBS Workshop on Financial Markes, Financial Sabiliy, and Financial Fragiliy 29 November-2 December 2005

2 Wha is he relaionship beween moneary policy and financial sabiliy? Are moneary shocks amplified by he banking secor? How fricions in credi markes inerplay wih moneary policy shocks? Wha is he role played by prudenial regulaion in he ransmission of macroeconomic and moneary shocks o he banking secor? 2

3 Transmission of moneary (and macro) shocks The credi channel: i is based on he heoreical predicion ha he exernal finance premium should depend on borrowers financial posiion a) The balance shee channel sresses he poenial impac of changes in moneary policy on borrowers balance shees (such as borrowers ne worh, cash flow and liquid asses) b) The bank lending channel focuses on moneary policy affecing he exernal finance premium by shifing he supply of inermediaed credi 2. The bank capial channel: moneary policy and oher macro shocks can affec bank lending hrough heir impac on bank capial 3

4 a. The credi (or firms balance shee) channel 4

5 b. The bank lending channel According o he lending view, moneary policy affecs banks loan supply For example, a conracion in reserves leads banks o reduce loan supply, hereby raising he cos of capial o bankdependen borrowers The exisence of a bank lending channel does no require banks o be oally incapable of replacing los deposis (due o conracion in reserves). I is sufficien ha banks do no face a perfecly elasic demand for heir liabiliies 5

22 Basel II model Cyclical paern of asse risk-weighs Sandardised Approach: evidence of a cyclical paern in credi raings se by raing agencies (Nickell, Perraudin and Varoo, 2000) Inernal Raing Based Approach: mos inernal raing sysems use a shor-erm horizon o measure risk. For example, borrowers probabiliy of defaul is ofen deermined over a one-year period (Basel Commiee on Banking Supervision, 2000) 22

23 Basel II model The capial consrain is now: where ( ) w M M < 0 θ q w M ( ) s b w T T, In conras o he previous case, under he assumpion of a risk-sensiive capial consrain, banks can eiher raise or lower heir capial holdings afer a posiive shock o M Their choice depends on he effec ha a change in M has on he likelihood of he capial consrain binding nex period 23

28 Summary of he resuls If loan risk-weighs depend on M, we inroduce anoher channel hrough which curren macroeconomic condiions affec banks lending: a capial raio channel Under Basel II rules, a macroeconomic shock will affec he risk-weighs so ha he capial consrain becomes looser (if he shock is posiive) Therefore banks may no be willing o mainain he same level of capial during periods of high economic aciviy as under Basel I 28

29 Empirical Evidence: Bank weakness and bank loan supply (Zicchino and Nier, [2005]) Peek and Rosengren (995): capial crunch for New England banks during a period in which capial regulaion was acively enforced (990-9); Empirical sudies of he impac of changes in capial regulaion on banks lending behaviour ouside he US are rare: Gambacora & Misrulli (2003); Barajas, Chami & Cosimano (2005); 29

30 Hypohesis developmen If a reduced volume of loans during recessions is he resul solely of lower loan demand or of a reducion in loan supply due o a lower level of savings, hen all banks should reac by reallocaing heir porfolios in he same way, independen of heir specific characerisics Bu if we observe a differen behaviour among bank wih differen characerisics, his would be evidence of a supply-induced resricion of credi 30

31 Hypoheses (H) Is he loan supply of banks wih weaker balance shees lower han ha of sronger banks? (H2) Is he effec of loan losses on bank loan supply sronger for poorly capialised banks? (H3) Is he effec of bank capial on lending sronger during periods of weak economic growh? 3

39 Concluding remarks Credi marke fricions play a role in he ransmission of moneary (and macroeconomic) shocks Banks balance shee posiion can amplify moneary and regulaory policy shocks as well as macroeconomic shocks Risk-sensiive capial requiremens may amplify he procyclicaliy of bank lending 39
