Estimating Bilateral Exposures in the German Interbank Market: Is There a Danger of Contagion?
Frequently Asked Questions (9)
Q2. What is the advantage of their method?
Since their method relies mainly on market data, it can be more easily applied than methods relying strongly on proprietary information such as loan registers and supervisory data.
Q3. What is the advantage of the parsimony in data?
The parsimony in data has the advantage that their approach is more easily replicable than proprietary data models and might thus be a useful building block to enhance their understanding of systemic risk monitoring for financial stability analysis through studies of other banking systems.
Q4. What is the main reason why the current approach is focused exclusively on domino effects?
In most existing studies, attention is focused exclusively on domino effects that result from interlinkages, when single institutions fail ceteris paribus.
Q5. How do the authors estimate the parameters of the stochastic process governing the value of banks’?
To estimate the parameters of the stochastic process governing the value of banks’ assets, the authors use weekly stock market data for 2003 from Bloomberg.
Q6. What is the advantage of this approach to model the uncertainty of bank asset returns?
The advantage of this approach to model the uncertainty of bank asset returns lies in the fact that it does not depend on proprietary data sources.
Q7. What is the effect of a systemic shock on financial stability?
By measuring the expected shortfall for all other banks in the system conditional on the default of one bank, the authors demonstrate that a systematic shock has a much higher impact on financial stability than an idiosyncratic one.
Q8. What is the effect of taking the correlation structure into account?
The results, shown in table 4, demonstrate that taking the correlation structure into account can have a considerable impact on estimates of default.
Q9. What is the way to estimate the bilateral exposures?
But to calculate a clearing payment vector and to identify contagious defaults, the bilateral exposures have to be estimated based on this partial information.
