1 How Much Should Creditors Worry About Operational Risk? The CDS Spread Reaction to Operational Risk Events CFS Research Conference on Operational Risk March 22 nd, 2013 House of Finance, Frankfurt Department of Banking // 1
2 Motivation and research question Growing (quantitative) interest in operational risk with Basel II but empirical work on operational risk remains relatively scarce At the same time, rating agencies increasingly gave importance to operational risk (Moody s 2003; Ferry 2003; Fitch 2004) Operational risk events can trigger rating actions (Fitch 2008; S&P 2008; Moody s 2008, 2011) If operational losses are relevant for the evaluation of a company s default risk they should be reflected in CDS and bond prices. Changes in credit ratings are highly anticipated, i.e. CDS spreads increase before ratings are adjusted (Norden/Weber 2004) 2
3 Literature and contribution The literature examining the market reaction to operational losses has so far only looked at stocks (Cummins et al. 2006; Gillet et al. 2010; Sturm 2013) with one exception analyzing bonds (Plunus et al. 2012) Looking at CDS spreads addresses a different question (shareholders vs. debt holders) Looking at CDS allows for an analysis of a different set of banks (i.e. non-listed banks) CDS event studies have several advantages over bond event studies. From a regulatory point of view the effects on the default risk of banks are probably more important than shareholder wealth effects. 3
4 Hypotheses Hypothesis 1: Operational loss events have an impact on CDS spreads of the bank incurring the loss (i.e., CDS spreads increase). Hypothesis 2: The CDS market reaction differs depending on event characteristic (i.e., relative loss size, loss amount and event type). Hypothesis 3: The CDS market reaction differs depending on company characteristics (i.e., leverage, credit rating, and firm size). 4
5 Data and sources Data on 99 operational loss events from European financial institution between 01/2004 and 9/2010 (with threshold 1 million Euro) Sources: Loss events: ÖffSchOR (VÖB), LexisNexis CDS spreads: CMA Datavision (via Datastream), Bloomberg Credit ratings: Standard & Poor s, Moody s Balance sheet information: Bankscope For each loss two different event dates are defined: 1. The date of the first news article (first press date) 2. The settlement date (if different from first press date) CDS data: 5 yr senior (MMR) CDS (available starting January 2004) itraxx Europe 5 yr senior (benchmark) 5

14 Summary of Results 1. Operational loss events have an impact on CDS spreads indicating an increase in risk for the debt position. 2. CDS market reaction is clearly influenced by the (relative) size of losses implying that the effect is not purely reputational. 3. The effect seems to be more pronounced for banks with a good credit rating while fraud events seem to be not particularly harmful. 14
