21 Bank Regulation of Risk and Capital Deposit insurance, explicit or implicit, requires prudential regulation Asset-side prudential regulation: goal is to ensure that the bank's funds are prudently invested and that these investments are properly diversified. Asset-side prudential regulation is easily transmuted into indirect credit allocation. Liability-side prudential regulation seeks to get the supervisor out of the business of second-guessing bank asset decisions. Instead, it says, in effect, "buy whatever assets you choose, but maintain an adequate capital position." Shearman & Sterling 26

32 The Syndication Technique in International Lending Syndication is the underwriting and distribution of large bank loans, a distribution method adapted from the securities underwriting business Risk reduction in syndicated loans: 1. Credit analysis 2. Monitoring and control 3. Taking a smaller amount of more, diversified assets 4. Relying on the monitoring role of the lead bank or banks. Better information about 1. Aggregate amount of lending to any one borrower (especially a country) 2. Terms and conditions of other segments of the loan and of other lending to the same borrower. Shearman & Sterling 41

36 The Separability of Pricing from Commitment Periods The Eurocurrency market permits the separation of the currency of denomination from the country of jurisdiction. A seemingly simple loan has inherent a large number of different features and aspects of risk, including pricing (over short-term LIBOR) commitment (medium term) funding the loan International bankers isolate these features in order to distribute and to hedge the inherent risks Shearman & Sterling 45

45 Euro-commercial Paper ECP is an unsecured promissory note, issued and placed outside the jurisdiction of the currency of denomination. A Eurocommercial paper facility By definition, the facility provides only for the best-efforts auction of paper; the borrower has no underwritten assurance of availability of funds Today, most committed facilities are used by those who want a medium term back-up line on which they do not intend to draw--often to back up a U.S. commercial paper facility. Uncommitted Euro-commercial paper or U.S. commercial paper facilities are used for actually raising funds. Shearman & Sterling 54
