On the Contagion Effect in the US Banking Sector

Abstract: By using the spatial econometrics methodology, this paper investigates the contagion of the risk taking by banks in the US banking sector during 2001 to 2012. In addition, the contagion signals up to the Subprime crisis in 2008 are analyzed and different channels of contagion are studied in order to identify fragile groups of banks. Our analysis reveals that there is no significant contagion transmitted to the whole banking system. However, we observe that the bank contagion is significantly spread locally and… Show more

“…The literature on the methodological approach is relatively recent. Pino and Sharma (2019) use spatial econometrics to investigate the channels of bank contagion, that can be useful to preserve the stability of the US banking sector. The results show that there is no contagion when the change in the risk-taking of a specific bank is assumed to affect all other banks in the US banking sector.…”

“…This process started in 2006; however, it was not successfully completed due to changes in the EU financial market in [2007][2008][2009]. These changes resulted from the financial crisis, which started on the mortgage market in the United States in 2007 and later spread to other countries, including European countries (Pino & Sharma, 2018). The crisis highlighted the weakness of the European financial system, which could not resist its negative impact.…”
