Empirical investigation of global imbalances : carry trades, network analysis of global banking and determinants of cross-border capital flows

Göktan, Mehmet Gökhan January 2014 (has links)
This thesis consists of three empirical papers on the sources of global imbalances. In the first chapter, I examine the exposures of carry trade returns to the stock and bond markets' returns under three different regime variables. The empirical results show that, during turbulent times, currency and stock markets move together. Additionally, I find that the comovement is much stronger for the target currencies of emerging markets. In the second chapter, I investigate the cross-border exposures of banking systems during the period 2005-2010 by using network analysis. The results reveal that the global banking is a small-world network that enables faster and easier propagation of contagion. Based on this finding, I apply eigenvector centrality I approach in order to identify systemically important countries and vulnerable banking systems and tested the results with Furfine (2003) based contagion algorithm. The results show that the global banking system supports the ' too interconnected to fail phenomenon' in the sense that an attack to the core will bring down almost all of its members which are densely connected. In the third chapter, I examine the determinants of cross-border capital flows in the long run, considering the Lucas (1990) paper investigating why capital does not flow from rich countries to poor countries (Lucas Paradox). I focus on both crossborder banking flows and cross-border mergers and acquisitions. The empirical results show that institutional quality has a strong causal effect on cross-border capital flows during the period 1980-2010. In addition, the empirical results also reveal that financial liberalization policies affect long-term investment decisions along with the institutional quality of countries.

Η χρηματοπιστωτική κρίση και η εποπτεία των χρηματαγορών

Χριστοφόρου, Βασιλική 14 February 2012 (has links)
Η σταθερότητα του χρηματοπιστωτικού συστήματος μπορεί να χαρακτηριστεί ως ένα δημόσιο αγαθό το οποίο ωφελεί το σύνολο της οικονομικής δραστηριότητας καθώς το κόστος μιας τραπεζικής κρίσης εκτείνεται σε όλο το φάσμα της οικονομίας. Ένα αποδοτικό τραπεζικό σύστημα με υγιή κεφαλαιακή βάση αποτελεί την καλύτερη εγγύηση για τη διατήρηση της σταθερότητας του χρηματοπιστωτικού τομέα αλλά και για την άμβλυνση των επιπτώσεων από δυσμενείς οικονομικές συνθήκες. Η ύπαρξη και η εφαρμογή ενός κανονιστικού πλαισίου ρύθμισης και εποπτείας του τραπεζικού συστήματος κατά το δυνατό εναρμονισμένου σε διεθνές επίπεδο, είναι επιτακτική δεδομένου ότι σε συνθήκες οικονομικής κρίσης μόνο οι εποπτικές και ρυθμιστικές οικονομικές αρχές μπορούν να εγγυηθούν την απρόσκοπτη λειτουργία του χρηματοπιστωτικού συστήματος. Η πρόσφατη χρηματοοικονομική κρίση 2007-2008 που ξεκίνησε από την αγορά ενυπόθηκων στεγαστικών δανείων μειωμένης εξασφάλισης στις Η.Π.Α., εξελίχθηκε στη σφοδρότερη οικονομική κρίση παγκοσμίως των τελευταίων 80 χρόνων και δημιούργησε συνθήκες ύφεσης. Ταυτοχρόνως ανέδειξε αδυναμίες του υπάρχοντος εποπτικού και ρυθμιστικού πλαισίου και οδήγησε σε μια συντονισμένη δράση των διεθνών και εθνικών εποπτικών και ρυθμιστικών αρχών και φορέων με σκοπό τη θωράκιση του παγκόσμιου χρηματοοικονομικού συστήματος. Στόχος της παρούσας συγγραφικής προσπάθειας είναι η αποτύπωση της πρόσφατης χρηματοπιστωτικής αναταραχής που ξεκίνησε από την αγορά στεγαστικών δανείων μειωμένης εξασφάλισης στις ΗΠΑ, σε συνδυασμό με την αποτελεσματική ή όχι εποπτεία από τις διεθνείς επιτροπές των παγκόσμιων χρηματαγορών. / The stability of the financial system can be considered as a public good that benefits the entire economy, as the cost of the banking crisis reaches all economic activities. An efficient banking system with rich capital base is able not only to maintain the stability of the financial sector but also to lessen the effects of adverse economic conditions. The existence and implementation of a regulatory framework for regulation and supervision of the banking system - internationally harmonized, as mush as possible - is imperative due to the fact that only the financial supervisory and regulatory authorities can ensure the smooth function of the financial system in conditions of economic crisis The recent financial crisis in 2007-2008 which started from the market of mortgage loans subordinated in U.S., became the most severe economic crisis globally the last 80 years and created recessionary conditions. At the same time, the economic crisis shew off the failures of the existing supervisory and regulatory framework and led to a concerted action from national and international supervisory and regulatory authorities in order to shield the global financial system. The objective of this survey is to describe the recent financial turmoil that started from the mortgage market subordinated in U.S., in combination with the effective or not supervision from the international committees of the global financial markets.

Examining the effectiveness of the new Basel III banking standards : experience from the South African Customs Union (SACU) banks

Musafare, Kidwell 02 1900 (has links)
This dissertation explored the efficacy of the new Basel III banking standards in SACU, grounded on the conjecture that they are not reflective of economies of SACU, but are merely an intensification of Basel II, rather than a substantial break with it. Firstly, loans and assets were tested for causality, since Basel III believes growth in these variables led to securitization. The leverage ratio has been introduced in Basel III as an anti-cyclical buffer. The OLS technique was employed to test for its significance in determining growth in bank assets. SACU feels the impact of debt, with credit is marginally treated in Basel III and is not introspective of the realities of its economies. ANOVA tests using debt, credit and GDP were done to determine a better method of addressing cyclicality. The leverage ratio was insignificant in Namibia, with debt and credit having momentous impacts on GDP in SACU. / Economics / M. Com. (Economics)

The effects of Financial & Institutional Systems on International Trade, Specialization and Foreign Direct Investment / L’effet des systèmes financiers & institutionnels sur le commerce, la spécialisation et les investissements directs étrangers

Cezar Vasconcellos Barros, Rafael 26 November 2013 (has links)
Cette thèse étudie l’impact des institutions, notamment les institutions financières, sur le commerce et les investissements internationaux. Les quatre premiers chapitres étudient les institutions financières et leur impact sur le commerce et la spécialisation internationale. Précisément, le premier chapitre étudie ces institutions et les déterminants de leur niveau de développement. Le deuxième chapitre analyse la façon dont la finance intervient sur le commerce bilatéral. Le troisième chapitre construit un modèle théorique qui vise à expliquer l’impact de la finance sur le commerce sectoriel en fonction du degré d’intensité financière de chaque secteur. Le quatrième chapitre analyse l’impact hétérogène de la finance sur les différents secteurs manufacturiers. Le dernier chapitre de la thèse utilise le terme “institution” dans un sens plus large et étudie théoriquement et empiriquement si les similitudes et différences dans les environnements institutionnels à travers les pays explique la distribution internationale des investissements directs étrangers (IDE). / This thesis examines the impact of institutions, especially the financial institutions, on international trade and foreign direct investments. The first four chapters study the financial institutions and their impact on trade and international specialization. Specifically, the first chapter examines these financial institutions and the determinants of their level of development. The second chapter examines how finance impacts bilateral trade. The third chapter builds a theoretical model and aims to explain the impact of finance on the sectoral trade as a function of the degree of financial intensity of each sector. The fourth chapter analyzes the heterogeneous impact of finance on the different manufacturing sectors. The last chapter of the thesis uses the term "institution" in a broader sense and studies theoretically and empirically whether the similarities and differences in institutional environments across countries explain the international patterns of foreign direct investment (FDI).

Οι άμεσες ξένες επενδύσεις των ελληνικών τραπεζών και η επίδρασή τους στη μακροχρόνια διαχείριση των κεφαλαίων τους : μελέτη περίπτωσης : EFG Eurobank Ergasias / The foreign direct investment of Greek banks and the long-term effects on the management of capital : case study : EFG Eurobank Ergasias

Αλεξανδράτου, Ευσταθία 17 September 2012 (has links)
Βασικός άξονας της παρούσας εργασίας είναι η ανάλυση των συνθηκών διεθνοποίησης των ελληνικών τραπεζών μέσω των Άμεσων Ξένων Επενδύσεων και πως η στρατηγική που χαράζουν επιδρά στη μακροχρόνια διαχείριση των κεφαλαίων τους. Η παρουσία των μεγαλύτερων ελληνικών τραπεζικών ομίλων είναι σημαντική -κυρίως στις χώρες της Νοτιοανατολικής Ευρώπης- τόσο σε σημεία εξυπηρέτησης όσο και στα μερίδια αγοράς. Εν προκειμένω, γίνεται διεξοδική ανάλυση σε έναν από τους μεγαλύτερους τραπεζικούς ομίλους με ισχυρή παρουσία στις γειτονικές χώρες, εφόσον δημιουργείται ενδιαφέρον να μελετηθεί η πορεία των οικονομικών αποτελεσμάτων με κύριο άξονα τη παγκόσμια χρηματοπιστωτική κρίση. / The main focus of this paper is to analyze the conditions of Greek banks' internationalization through FDI and how the strategy affects the long-makers manage their funds. The presence of the largest Greek banking groups is important, -especially in South East Europe- both in service network and market shares. In this case, there is a thorough analysis for one of the largest greek banking groups with a strong presence in neighboring economies, where we are interested in studying the course of the financial results by focusing on the global financial crisis.
