1 Financial Regulation in a Quantitative Model of the Modern Banking System Juliane Begenau HBS Tim Landvoigt UT Austin CITE August 14,

2 Flow of Funds: total nancial assets $ Trillion Shadow Banks Depository Institutions 8 6 Jun98 Jun00 Jun02 Jun04 Jun06 Jun08 Jun10 Jun12 Jun14 2

3 Motivation Financial sector: many dierent institutions Regulation may aect each institutions dierently Unintended consequences of regulating a subset of banks This paper: develops general equilibrium model to study & quantify eects of capital regulation on dierent intermediaries provides framework for designing optimal capital requirement 3

4 Quantitative GE model Main features endowment economy with two trees households own one tree but need intermediaries to access the other households' preference for safe & liquid bank liabilities two types of banks (regulated & unregulated) regulated banks face constant lev. constraint unregulated face endogenous lev. constraint idiosyncratic default risk 4

5 Eect of capital requirements Static eects for lower values: increase shadow activity and their risk regulated banks become less risky for higher values: regulated banks risk-free, higher share Dynamic eects of positive shock to banks' asset values Case: low capital requirement (less than 8%) increase in regulated bank activity Case: high capital requirement lower sensitivity of system to shocks decrease in regulated bank activity 5

6 Outline Model Comparative statics Parametrization Capital requirement experiment 6

7 Environment Discrete time, innite horizon Endowment: 2 trees produce Y t F Y and Z t F Z Households owny t, need banks for Z t Intermediaries invest in Zt tree & issue debt that provides liquidity service exposed to idiosyn. & agg. shocks have limited liability can default, results in deadweight loss C banks debt insured, risk-free for households S banks debt not insured, not risk-free for households 7

8 C-Banks A C t,i shares of Z tree, price p t Raise funds with debt Bt,i C at qc t,i & equity EC t,i at pc t,i Idiosyncratic risks ρ C t,i Fρ C proportional to assets, ρ C t,i Z t, i.i.d across banks & time Liabilities insured: qt,i C independent of capital structure Market value balance sheet: Capital requirements: p t A C t+1,i = B C t,i + p C t,ie C t,i (1 θ)p t A C t+1,i B C t,i. 8

9 Problem of C-Banks Homogeneous of degree one in A C t,i Dene b C t = Bt 1/A C C t (book-leverage) & a C t+1 = A C t+1/a C t (asset growth) Value function v C (b C t,i, Z t, ρ S t,i) = +a C t+1,i subject to max a C t+1,i,bc t+1,i Z t + p t ρ C t,i b C t,i... ( (q C t κ)b C t+1,i p t + E t [ Mt,t+1ˆv C (b C t+1,i, Z t+1 ) ]) (1 θ)p t b C t+1,i where κ is deposit fund fee, M t,t+1 is SDF & ˆv C (b C t+1,i, Z t+1 ) continuation value conditional on survival 9

10 Idiosyncratic default Continuation value of bank i ṽ C (b C t,i, Z t, ρ C t,i) = max{0, v C ( b C t,i, Z t ) ρ C t,i } With ρ C t,i Fρ C, taking expectations w.r.t ρ ṽ C (b C t,i, Z t ) = F C ρ ( v C ) }{{} prob surv v C ρ ( v C) }{{} loss cdt. on surv Banks of C type (and S type) identical, drop i 10

11 Bankruptcy & Insurance Fund Dene ρ ( + v ( )) C b C t, Z t average loss cdt on default Creditors recover r C (b C t ) = (1 ξ C ) Z t + p t ρ ( + v ( )) C b C t, Z t with ξ C bankruptcy costs b C t Insurance fund budget constraint for B C t = b C t A C t q C t G t + ( 1 F C ρ ( v C )) ( 1 r C ( b C t )) B C t 1 = G t 1 + κb C t 11

12 S-Banks Invest in Z & issue liquidity services providing liabilities Problem looks very similar to C banks But debt not insured not subject to capital requirements ( ) endogenous leverage constraint through q S t b S t+1 12

13 Household Preferences HH derive utility from C and liquidity services H U (C t, H t ) = C1 γ t 1 + ψ (H t/c t ) 1 η 1 γ 1 η with η > 1 (complementarity b/w C and H) Liquidity services H created with intermediary debt H t (N S t 1, N C t 1) = [ (N C t 1) α + F S ρ ( v S ( b S t, Z t )) ν (N S t 1 ) α] 1/α with ν > 0 liquidity factor and α = 1 1/ELS 13

14 Households' Problem Household wealth: W t+1 = j=s,c + N S t + N C t F j ρ ( v j ) ( D j t+1 + p j t+1)s j t [ F S ρ ( v S ) + ( 1 F S ρ ( v S )) r S (b S t+1) ] Given wealth and bank liquidity, maximize discounted expected utility subject to the budget constraint W t + Y t = C t + p j ts j t + q j t N j t j=s,c j=s,c 14

15 Recursive Equilibrium State vars: tree Y, HH wealth, liquid bank debt N j j {C, S}, banks' capital structure b j j {C, S} Exog. shocks to log Y & log Z Given prices, households & intermediaries optimize Policies satisfy market clearing for consumption and both intermediaries debt, equity shares & asset shares N S = B S and N C = B C G Deposit fund budget constraint holds 15

16 Outline Model Mechanism & Comparative Statics Parametrization Capital requirement experiment 16

17 Liquidity provision by C vs S banks Liquidity benet: H(N S, N C ) = [ (N C ) α + (Fρ S ) ν (N S ) α] 1/α lever up as much as possible C banks: N C = b C A C G restricted by capital req (1 θ) p b C q C independent of b C default cost borne by insurance fund S banks' debt price set by HH's FOC q S = β(f S + (1 F S )r S + MRS S ) 17 Can show that q S / b S < 0 endog. leverage constraint q S + b S q (b S ) = βf S To increase N S = B S = b S A S need larger share of Z (higher A S )

18 Liquidity factor ν Governs usefulness of N S for liquidity generation Larger ν, higher sensitivity w.r.t survival probability F S ρ S banks internalize their eect on changes in liquidity provision to households: νmrs S /F S Case eect taken into account: higher ν increases price of N S as S banks lower F S Case eect ignored: higher ν lowers price of N S as S banks lower F S not strong enough 18

19 Liquidity factor eect on H NS FS ν LF=0 LF=1 BS/(AS*p) FS qs ν ν Red: S banks takes liquidity aect of its capital structure choice into account Blue: not taken into account

20 Elasticity of substitution Governs demand for type of intermediary debt α 0: complements, HH need H to be composed of intermediary debt mix α 1 : substitutes, HH care more about quantity, not specic mix Pins down share of shadow banking activity Increasing α liquidity demand eect: shift to commercial banks leverage externality eect: default risk & insurance fund increase, less H desired as consumption falls 20

21 Liquidity demand vs leverage externality eect AS 0.6 BS BS/(p*AS) G α α

22 Comparative Statics: Capital Requirement Increasing the capital requirements: for lower values increase in value of Z lowers leverage constraint for S banks share of shadow banks increases higher survival probability of C banks and default risk of S banks as θ becomes larger, drive down DWL, increase C higher C want more H if θ large enough, G 0 need less H relative less demand for deposits C banks debt becomes relatively more attractive 22

31 Conclusion Quantitative dynamic model general equilibrium model with two nancial institutions Static eects shadow bank activity increases for low θ and decreases for high θ S bank demand increases valuation of Z despite higher θ risky activity shifts to shadow banks for higher θ, eliminates idiosyncratic risk & DWL, reduces insurance fund size higher consumption Dynamic eects of positive shock to banks' asset values, case θ low more C banks & higher responsiveness to shocks under 31
