Reglering av banker och deras finansiella prestationer : En kvantitativ studie av finansiell prestation enligt bankstorlek i USA med höjda kapitalkrav under Basel III och Dodd-Frank Act

Forsgren, Felix January 2023 (has links)
Under den globala finanskrisen mellan 2007 till 2009 drabbades både privatpersoner och företag hårt av en skakig finansiell marknad, vilket ledde till att regeringar och myndigheter världen över införde nya föreskrifter och riktlinjer för banker. De nya regleringarna skulle förhindra att en liknande kollaps i framtiden skulle inträffa genom att öka stabiliteten och säkerheten inom banksektorn. I USA infördes Dodd-Frank Act och Basel III som nya föreskrifter, där fokus var på att återställa sektorn och återvinna förtroendet från samhället. Regelverken införde höjda kapitalkrav och andra regleringar för att få en bättre övervakning över bankernas finansiella hälsa.  Oavsett vilken storlek det är på banken så har Dodd-Frank Act och Basel III påverkat banker i USA då reglementet har till syfte att säkerställa en sund och hållbar finansiella sektor. Även om syftet är för det goda har det väckt oro över konsekvenserna av regleringarna på bankernas prestation och konkurrenskraft, särskilt för mindre banker som anses kunna hamna i en situation av ekonomisk kris och svårigheter att överleva. Lönsamhet är viktigt för banker för att kunna generera mer kapital som i sin tur kan lånas ut till ekonomin. Hög konkurrens gör att lönsamheten sätts i fokus, men ger även mer flexibilitet till banker vid sämre perioder på marknaden.  I USA och andra delar av världen, har det i starten av 2023 skapats en rädsla för bankernas överlevnad, där återigen hantering av risk ligger i framkant. Några banker har redan upplevt så kallade ”bank-runs” och fått sin organisation övertagen av den amerikanska federal myndigheten Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). Syftet med denna rapport är att undersöka hur Dodd-Frank Act och Basel III har påverkat bankernas prestation och om det finns en skillnad mellan storleksgrupperna i USA.  För att studera bankers prestation efter införandet av Basel III och Dodd-Frank Act har studien använt finansiella nyckeltal som har delats upp i tre olika grupper (lönsamhet, stabilitet och riskhantering). Undersökningen innehåller dessutom en skillnader-i-skillnader- analys för att studera om bankstorlek har någon betydelse i prestation efter införandet av regleringarna. Resultatet indikerar att åtgärder som vidtogs mot den finansiella krisen har hjälpt banker att förbättra sin riskhantering och stabilitet. Däremot har det resulterat i lägre lönsamhet för större banker och bättre för mindre banker. Studien visar även på att införandet av Basel III och Dodd-Frank Act har påverkat bankgruppernas prestation olika mycket.

店頭衍生性商品交易集中結算之研究─以美國2010金融改革法案為中心 / A study on the central clearing of over-the-counter derivatives –emphasis on the U.S. financial reform act 2010

鄭琇霙 Unknown Date (has links)
原為避險目的而生之衍生性商品,因為金融創新,不僅交易規模擴大,交易對象也變得多元,甚至進一步成為部分投機者賺取高報酬之工具。依統計資料,透過店頭市場交易之衍生性商品,其名目價值遠高於在集中市場交易者,然店頭市場交易係由雙方自行協商交易條件,在欠缺相關揭露要求之情況下,市場透明度低,且欠缺有力之違約風險控管機制,兼之此市場中參與者間之高度關聯性,使得一旦有違約情況發生,影響層面往往波及當事人以外之眾多對象。 在金融危機過後,國際間開始檢討此次危機之成因,並研擬後續可能改革方向,針對店頭市場交易部分,則強調透過集中交易、集中結算以及交易資訊揭露等方式加強監管。美國為眾多戮力於金融改革之國家中較早通過具體條文者,2010年的改革法案將店頭衍生性交易納入規範,以集中結算為改革重點,並施加交易資訊申報公開、保證金、資本準備和部位限制等要求。儘管集中結算制度為改革關鍵,在法案中卻存在部分豁免規定,例如僅標準化衍生性商品須集中結算、外匯換匯及遠期外匯兩類衍生性商品可免集中結算、以及最終使用者所從事之交易亦可豁免等。 對於上述豁免規定,本文認為基於集中結算制度本身運作之前提,為結算之衍生性商品必須有一定之流動性及標準化,加上採行集中結算可能會增加之避險成本,因此美國改革法案中之例外為妥協後之結果。上述例外存在之本身,以及相關主管機關所提行政規則修正草案中存在之缺失,皆增加了藉以規避集中結算制度之可能性,而成為美國改革法案集中結算制度之潛在漏洞,無法防範店頭衍生性交易再度賈禍。觀察過去美國幾次重大金融改革,皆是在金融危機後大幅加強對市場之管制,然管制之必要性卻須待多年運行後才能獲致理性檢驗之機會。此次集中結算制度之改革然結果如何,仍需待實際於市場實施後才能準確評價。 / Because of financial innovation, the trading volume of derivatives increases and the market participants get varied. Derivatives, that were developed to hedge or mitigate risk, become one of the tools to speculate. According to statistics, the total nominal value of derivatives traded in the over-the-counter (OTC) market is much higher than that traded in the exchange. Because of the low market transparency, the lack of powerful risk mitigating mechanism and the high correlation among major market participants, default of one counterparty may cause systemic risk. After the global financial market meltdown in 2008, countries devoted attention to the causes of the financial crisis, especially to the OTC derivatives. To reduce the risk identified in the OTC derivatives market, trading on the exchange or electronic trading platform, central clearing and information disclosure are some measures to be implemented. The Dodd-Frank Act was the earliest reform act passed by the U.S. among these countries. Although central clearing is the major component of the act, there are also several exemptions of it. For example, non-standard derivatives, foreign exchange swaps, foreign exchange forwards and derivatives traded by end-user are exempted from central clearing requirement. To be central cleared, the OTC derivatives must be standardized and with certain liquidity. Once central cleared, companies would be unable to use customized derivatives to mitigate commercial risk and the cost of hedge would probability increases. These are some reasons mentioned to support the central clearing exemption. However, the existence of these exemptions may become the inherent loopholes of the act. This article would first introduce the central clearing exemptions and evaluate the possible effect these exemptions might cause.

The Narrative of Conflict Minerals : An Exploration of Sexual Gender-Based Violence and Socioeconomic Impacts of the Dodd-Frank Act in the Eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo

Engström, Sara January 2017 (has links)
This thesis elaborates on a complex, multilayered gender perspective of mineral exports in the conflict of the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo. The focus lies on the Dodd-Frank Act and its implications for sexual gender-based violence, both conflict and non-conflict related, as well as socioeconomic dimensions. The in-depth analysis of these factors indicates, that after the initiation of the well-intended Act, the occurrence of sexual gender-based violence has increased and socioeconomic situation for women have worsened. Possible reasons can be found in the sole focus on Western narratives and the neglect of local perspectives.

Three Essays in Financial Economics

Alvero, Adrien January 2022 (has links)
This dissertation studies three topics in financial economics. In the first chapter, "ESG Investing in Emerging Markets: Betting on Firm Fundamentals or Riding Investor Preferences?", we examine the relation between firms' environmental, social, and governance (ESG) practices and the pricing of corporate bonds in emerging markets, which is an important yet understudied market for ESG-related issues. Firms with different ESG scores can have different costs of capital, either because ESG scores help forecast future cash flows -- the "fundamental" channel -- or because investors have non-pecuniary preferences for high-ESG-score assets -- the "preference" channel. We identify the existence of a preference channel with a natural experiment -- the historical opening of the Chinese onshore bond market -- that leads to an increase in the proportion of international investors, who are more ESG-conscious. Consistent with theory, we find that the bond yield of companies with high ESG scores decreases more than that of companies with low ESG scores. By focusing on firms that also have bonds traded in the offshore market, which, as opposed to the onshore market, does not experience any change in regulation, we can control for issuer-time fixed effects in a triple difference design, hence reducing considerably the influence of the fundamental channel. In the second chapter, "Watch what they do, not what they say: Estimating regulatory costs from revealed preferences", we show that distortion in the size distribution of banks around regulatory thresholds can be used to identify costs of bank regulation. We build a structural model in which banks can strategically bunch their assets below regulatory thresholds to avoid regulations. The resulting distortion in the size distribution of banks reveals the magnitude of regulatory costs. Using U.S. bank data, we estimate the regulatory costs imposed by the Dodd-Frank Act. Although the estimated regulatory costs are substantial, they are significantly lower than those in self-reported estimates by banks. In the third chapter, "Fuzzy Bunching", we introduce a new fuzzy bunching approach that is robust to noise. The existing bunching approach identifies the extent of bunching from a sharp spike in the probability density function. In many finance settings, however, the sharp spike could be diffused by data noise. The key idea behind our fuzzy bunching estimator is to identify bunching from the area of a bulge in the cumulative distribution function. The fuzzy bunching approach also avoids density estimation, which makes it easy to implement in sparse data. We provide the theoretical foundation of this approach and illustrate the advantages by using simulated and real data.

Economic capital management of top-ranked world banks / Economic capital management of top-ranked world banks

Vejdovec, Ondřej January 2011 (has links)
The thesis is focused on economic capital management of top-ranked world banks. A basic theoretical framework is summarised at the beginning. The theoretical framework is then utilised in the main - empirical part. Since economic capital is not a figure commonly reported in any available database, we have created our own database based on annual reports of top fifty world banks of the year 2008. Based on this database we provide an extensive empirical study focused on years 2007-2010. Even though one third of the banks disclose economic capital only, thanks to our approach combining both quantitative and qualitative analysis we were able to study the topic in detail. Within quantitative part the development of economic capital and its allocation is studied, the differences between regulatory and economic capital in time is measured, a relationship between quality of economic capital disclosure and rating is searched for and relationship between the value of economic capital and changes in profits during financial crisis is studied. The qualitative part consists of case studies of fourteen banks. It is focused on special and unique features of economic capital management of individual financial institutions.

Effect of 2007-2009 Economic Crisis and Dodd-Frank Legislation on the U.S. Banking Industry

Simpson, Steven D. 01 January 2017 (has links)
This correlation research study was used to investigate the impact of the Dodd-Frank legislation on the U.S. bank industry. The economic crisis of 2007-2009 had a global and significant financial impact, some of which still reverberates. In the United States, the reaction was The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, which took effect July 21, 2010. This act has recently been the subject of academic research and remains debated in congress, with discussion focused on its repeal. The publicly available, secondary data set from banks' quarterly filed regulatory reporting provided the data used in this study. Every FDIC insured bank in the United States was included in the study. The research question for the study examined the unintended consequences of Dodd-Frank legislation as posited by the theories of Bexley (2014) and Barth, Prabha, and Swagel (2012) that Dodd-Frank was a regulatory overreaction and could have a long-term impact on a substantial number of financial institutions. From 2007 through 2013, the number of banks declined by over 1,753 institutions; a 19.82% decline. The structure of the research presumed that banks that relied heavily on consumer fees for depository services would be negatively impacted by rule changes and regulation regarding such fees. There were two research questions. The first focused on the role of the new rules in the decline of the number of banks. The second explored the role of the legislation in the financial performance of banks. Regression results resulted in not being able to reject the null hypotheses. The implication of the study for social change is that policy makers who understand these relationships may construct better regulation to mitigate unfair and deceptive consumer fees for banking services.
