Shocks at large banks and banking sector distress: The Banking Granular Residual

Abstract: a b s t r a c tSize matters in banking. In this paper, we explore whether shocks originating at large banks affect the probability of distress of smaller banks and thus the stability of the banking system. Our analysis proceeds in two steps. In a first step, we follow Gabaix [Gabaix, X., 2008a. The Granular Origins of Aggregate Fluctuations. Available at SSRN: http://ssrn.com/abstract=1111765] and construct a measure of idiosyncratic shocks at large banks, the so-called Banking Granular Residual. This measure … Show more

“…the bank financing condition, and KLCI represents the stock market condition. 13 The choice of variables for MAV is closest in spirit to Bangia et al (2002), Kavvathas (2001), Nickell et al (2000), Blank et al (2009) Mannasoo andMayes (2009), andKoopman et al (2009). 14 To cater for the financial crisis effect, we include three crisis dummies: the 97/98 Asian financial crisis (CRISIS denotes 1 for year 1997 and 1998, 0 otherwise), post Asian crisis (POSTCRISIS denotes 1 for year 1999 to 2006, 0 otherwise) and the US subprime crisis (SUBCRISIS denotes 1 for year 2008 and 2009).…”

“…Blank et al (2009) were the first to measure granular effects from banking to investigate how bank concentration affects the stability of the Ger-man banking system. Using a panel of Eastern European countries, Buch and Neugebauer (2011) find significant effects of idiosyncratic shocks to large banks on the real economy.…”
