3 Notion of Market Discipline Market discipline: economic agents face costs that increase with bank risk and react on the basis of these costs (Berger, 1991) Depositors respond to increases in bank risk via prices (interest rates) or quantities (deposits) This penalizes managers for excessive risk taking and disciplines them ex-ante Market discipline leads to a healthier banking system and a lower probability of banking crises 2

4 Crises in Emerging Economies Crises in emerging economies mostly related to prevalent systemic factors, rather than bank idiosyncratic risk The literature has mostly ignored how systemic factors influence market responses 3

5 Systemic Risk and Market Responses Systemic factors affect market responses, directly (regardless of bank-specific risk) Currency risk and deposit flight to a foreign currency Diminished deposit insurance and lender of last resort capabilities Dual agency problem Government interventions may affect the value of deposits through actions, beyond the control of bank managers 4

6 Systemic Risk and Market Responses Systemic factors affect market responses through bank idiosyncratic risk Exposure to country risk Public sector credit risk (bonds and loans) Exposure to currency risk (currency mismatch) Bank-level mismatch between assets and liabilities Debtor currency mismatch, private sector credit risk Bank liabilities mismatch Effect of systemic factors on future fundamentals 5

7 Our Work Study how systemic risk affects market responses through different channels Evidence from emerging market crises Systemic risk is essential to understand how depositors behave and extent of market discipline A re-examination of the concept of market discipline is necessary for emerging economies 6

16 Explanatory Power of Systemic Factors Percentage of Within Variance Explained by Country and Exchange Rate Risks Argentina Pre-Crisis Period Crisis Period Oct-98 - Jul-00 Sep-00 - Dec-01 Log of Peso Time Deposits 11.9% 70.9% Log of Dollar Time Deposits 2.4% 76.3% Uruguay Pre-Crisis Period Crisis Period Feb-99 - Dec-00 Jan-01 - Nov-01 Dec-01 - Jul-02 Log of Dollar Time Deposits 0.8% 5.2% 56.7% The percentage of within variance explained by country and exchange rate risks is calculated as one less the within R- squared of a fixed-effects regression including only bank fundamentals over the within R-squared of a fixed-effects regression including both bank fundamentals and country and exchange rate risks. In the case of Uruguay, both regressions also include total deposits in Argentina. 15

Combined responses are calculated by adding the percentage changes. 18

25 Conclusions Systemic factors not relevant during tranquil times, but are main drivers of market responses (deposit behavior) during crisis periods Even after controlling for bank fundamentals Using low and high frequency data A few large systemic shocks can destabilize the financial sector 24

26 Conclusions Deposit withdrawals during crises associated with bank exposure to exchange rate risk Its relevance increases as the crisis intensifies Exposure to systemic factors not priced Systemic factors affect bank fundamentals Their relevance increases with time The relevance of fundamentals decreases with time Not just the effect of stale news 25

27 Conclusions Market discipline as traditionally defined may be overshadowed by the incidence of systemic risk Traditional bank fundamentals may not fully capture systemic risk exposure, materialized prior to crises Depositors may react to systemic risks due to factors unrelated to bank idiosyncratic risk or related to nontraditional fundamentals Systemic risk may affect (future) traditional bank fundamentals, plus available bank-specific information is less informative 26

28 Conclusions Traditional market discipline is less valuable when market reaction is driven by systemic factors exogenous to bank managers Exposure to systemic risk needs to be added to standard fundamentals (and regulated) Transparent crisis resolution procedures may help reduce dual agency problems inherent to crises Need to limit incidence of systemic risk in emerging economies 27
