This book was released on 2003-11-01 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper investigates the presence of depositor discipline in the U.S. banking sector. We test whether depositors penalize (discipline) banks for poor performance by withdrawing their uninsured deposits. While focusing on the movements in uninsured deposits, we also account for the possibility that banks may be forced to pay a risk premium in the form of higher interest rates to induce depositors not to withdraw their uninsured deposits. Our results support the existence of depositor discipline: a weak bank may not necessarily be able to stop a deposit drain by raising its uninsured deposit interest rates.

This book was released on 1999 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is difficult to design and implement an effective safety net for banks, because overgenerous protection of banks may introduce a risk-enhancing moral hazard and destabilize the very system it is meant to protect. The safety net that policymakers design must provide the right mix of market and regulatory discipline, enough to protect depositors without unduly undermining market discipline on banks.

Download or read book How Does Temporary Deposit Insurance Affect Depositor Behavior Evidence from the US Transaction Account Guarantee Program written by Veronika Molnar and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prior research shows that significant withdrawal risk stems from the concentration of deposit holdings into large, mostly corporate transaction accounts which are uninsured and liquid. First, I test for the existence of depositor discipline on bank risk taking by large, corporate deposit holders. Second, I examine the effect of the unlimited insurance coverage on depositor discipline. The results of this paper suggest that in the absence of deposit insurance there is significant depositor discipline in large non-interest-bearing transaction accounts in both large and small banks in the U.S.. The findings also reveal that depositor discipline is eliminated during the unlimited insurance period in the sample. This paper shows that corporate depositors are both a source of market discipline and financial instability. Ad interim full insurance coverage on transaction accounts can prevent bank runs on healthy financial institutions in a banking crisis, but should never be made a permanent measure as it deteriorates discipline that is generally beneficial for all depositors.

This book was released on 2001 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper empirically investigates two issues largely unexplored by the literature on market discipline. We evaluate the interaction between market discipline and deposit insurance and the impact of banking crises on market discipline. We focus on the experiences of Argentina, Chile, and Mexico during the 1980s and 1990s. We find that depositors discipline banks by withdrawing deposits and by requiring higher interest rates. Deposit insurance does not appear to diminish the extent of market discipline. Aggregate shocks affect deposits and interest rates during crises, regardless of bank fundamentals; while investors' responsiveness to bank risk taking increases in the aftermath of crises.
Download or read book Depositor Behavior and Market Discipline in Colombia written by Mr.Adolfo Barajas and published by INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND. This book was released on 2000-12-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines how depositors choose among different banks and over time in Colombia, focusing on whether they discipline bank behavior. By controlling for a more comprehensive set of risk/return factors, the study improves upon conventional market discipline tests. Panel data estimations for 1985-99 show that depositors prefer banks with stronger fundamentals, and that banks tend to improve their fundamentals after being “punished” by depositors. Banks with stronger fundamentals benefit from lower interest costs and higher lending rates. Market (or “regulatory”) discipline therefore appears to exist in Colombia, perhaps thanks to certain key design features of the deposit insurance scheme.
Download or read book Do Depositors Discipline Banks and Did Government Actions During the Recent Crisis Reduce this Discipline An International Perspective written by Allen N. Berger and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent financial crisis highlights the importance of both regulatory and market discipline. Government reactions to the crisis included expanding deposit insurance coverage and rescuing troubled institutions, including some institutions that might not otherwise be considered too important to fail. These actions may have the unintended consequence of a reduction in market discipline that might otherwise penalize banks for risk-taking behavior. Alternatively, market discipline may have increased during the crisis due to heightened awareness of the risks of bank failures. To address these issues, we first test for the presence of depositor discipline effects in the period leading up to the financial crisis in both the US and the EU. Second, we test whether depositor discipline decreased or increased during the crisis. We find significant depositor discipline prior to the crisis in both the US and EU, but this varies between the US and the EU as well as with banking organization size and with listed versus unlisted status. We also find that depositor discipline mostly decreased during the crisis, except for the case of small US banks.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As Japan's financial system moves toward a more market oriented one, depositor discipline is expected to play a larger role in the monitoring of the country's banks. Relying on detailed survey data on households' bank switching behavior matched with banks' financial data, we examine households' response to bank risk and different deposit insurance schemes. We find that bank switching in response to risk was more frequent in 2001 than in 1996 and that households' choice of bank provides an adequate reflection of banks' financial health. We also examine the determinants of households' knowledge of the deposit insurance scheme and find that income, the amount of households' financial assets, and educational attainment are all significant factors. What is more, households' extent of knowledge regarding the deposit insurance scheme was an important determinant of bank switching behavior. The results suggest that depositor discipline appears to work and could play an important supplementary role in monitoring the banking sector.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over a decade has passed since the collapse of the U.S. investment bank, Lehman Brothers, marked the onset of the largest global economic crisis since the Great Depression. The crisis revealed major shortcomings in market discipline, regulation and supervision, and reopened important policy debates on financial regulation. Since the onset of the crisis, emphasis has been placed on better regulation of banking systems and on enhancing the tools available to supervisory agencies to oversee banks and intervene speedily in case of distress. Drawing on ten years of data and analysis, Global Financial Development Report 2019/2020 provides evidence on the regulatory remedies adopted to prevent future financial troubles, and sheds light on important policy concerns. To what extent are regulatory reforms designed with high-income countries in mind appropriate for developing countries? What has been the impact of reforms on market discipline and bank capital? How should countries balance the political and social demands for a safety net for users of the financial system with potentially severe moral hazard consequences? Are higher capital requirements damaging to the flow of credit? How should capital regulation be designed to improve stability and access? The report provides a synthesis of what we know, as well as areas where more evidence is still needed. Global Financial Development Report 2019/2020 is the fifth in a World Bank series. The accompanying website tracks financial systems in more than 200 economies before, during, and after the global financial crisis (http://www.worldbank.org/en/publication/gfdr) and provides information on how banking systems are regulated and supervised around the world (http://www.worldbank.org/en/research/brief/BRSS).

Book excerpt: Financial development, which involves the establishment and expansion of institutions, instruments and markets, plays an important role in economic growth given that they can ameliorate information and transaction costs, facilitate a more efficient mobilization of savings, spread risk and provide liquidity. Moreover, given the high costs of banking crises, regulators always seek the means that promote greater levels of prudence in banks' behavior. Indeed, this can be done by relying on certain regulatory actions (supervision and regulations) and on market discipline. In turn, market discipline relies on private sector agents (equity holders and debt holders) to produce information that assists bank supervisors in recognizing potential banking problems and in implementing remedial measures.The primary objective of this research is to provide answers to two questions. First, do depositors discipline Jordanian, Kuwaiti, Omani, and Saudi banks? Second, does the deposit insurance design have any bearing on market discipline - given the fact that Kuwaiti and Saudi deposits are 100 percent insured explicitly and implicitly respectively, while Jordanian and Omani deposits are insured up to $14,000 and $50,000 respectively.Based on a sample of listed Jordanian, Kuwaiti, Omani, and Saudi banks during the time period 1997-2006, the overall results clearly indicate the absence of market discipline in Kuwait, Oman, and Saudi Arabia. In other words, market discipline is at work only in Jordan.
