  2. Slide 2: Do bank capital and capital requirements matter for monetary policy transmission?

    Do bank capital and capital requirements matter for the transmission of monetary policy to bank lending? • Traditional monetary theory has largely ignored bank equity and capital requirements. • Increased importance of capital requirements (since the Basel Accords). • ‘Capital crunch’ during the 199

  8. Slide 8: This paper: Yes

    Do bank capital and capital requirements matter for the transmission of monetary policy to bank lending? This paper: Yes. In the presence of financial frictions, capital requirements generate a mechanism whereby monetary policy changes bank loan supply through its effect on bank capital. 8

  10. Slide 10: Regulatory background for U.S.

    Regulatory background for U.S. Pre – Basle: core capital ≥ 0.03 * total assets higher requirement for all but “the most highly rated banks” Basel I Accord (1988): tier 1 capital ≥ 0.04 * risk-weighted assets total capital ≥ 0.08 * risk-weighted assets risk-weights: reflect credit risk of asset categ

  11. Slide 11: Regulatory background

    Regulatory background Basel II (never implemented in US) Pillar1: More refined risk weights, based on ratings • external • internal Pillar 2 incorporates some similar elements to the FDICIA Basel III • work in progress… 11

  12. Slide 12: Model: Introduction

    Model: Introduction Dynamic bank asset and liability management model with: 1. Risk-based capital requirements 2. Imperfect market for bank equity 3. Maturity transformation by the bank 1 and 2  bank lending depends on bank capital 3  interest rate risk Combined, this gives rise to a ‘bank capital

  13. Slide 13: Model: Introduction

    Model: Introduction Model provides an alternative to the conventional bank lending channel • No special role of reserves • Bank lending channel requires financial frictions for all nonreservable bank liabilities 13

  14. Slide 14: Model: Introduction

    Model: Introduction Main implications: 1. Bank lending depends on the bank’s capital adequacy even when the regulatory constraint is not momentarily binding. 2. Shocks to bank profitability, such as loan defaults, have a persistent impact on lending. 3. The model generates a ‘bank capital channel’ o

  15. Slide 15: The Model

    The Model The bank’s objective: maximization of shareholder value. • Shareholders do not price the bank’s risk • Short market interest rate rt exogenous process  ∞  s −1 −1   Vt max ∞ Et  ∑  ∏ (1 + rt +u )  Dt + s  {N t + s , Dt + s }s=0 =  s 0= u 0   15

  17. Slide 17: Loans

    Loans: • Constant maturity structure of loan portfolio: • fraction δ due each period. • Average maturity: 1/ δ > 1. • Actual repayments uncertain: δ t +1 • Bad loans cause charge-offs. Lt +1 =(1 − δ t +1 − ωt +1 ) Lt + (1 − δ t +1 − bt +1 ) N t • Downward sloping loan demand: higher N in given perio

  18. Slide 18: Bank debt and securities

    Bank debt and securities: • All short (maturity transformation). • Bank debt insured, securities risk-free  market interest rate rt • Abstracts from liquidity problems. No ‘bank lending channel’ in model. 18

  19. Slide 19: Equity and accounting profits

    Equity: Et +1 = Et − Dt + (1 − τ )π t +1 • Corporate income tax generates tax advantage of debt finance, relative to equity. Accounting profits: π t +1= ρ ((1 − ωt +1 ) Lt + (1 − bt +1 ) Nt ) − rt ( Lt − Et + Nt + Dt ) − (ωt +1Lt + bt +1 Nt ) + π F 19

  20. Slide 20: Capital Regulation

    Capital Regulation: • Loans: 100% in risk weighted assets. • Securities: zero risk weight. • Regulations limit asset growth and dividends: Et ≥ γ Lt ⇒ Et − Dt ≥ γ ( Lt + N t ) Et < γ Lt ⇒= N t 0 and= Dt 0 Financial Constraint: Dt ≥ 0 20

  21. Slide 21: Risk

    Risk: 1. Default risk, ω 2. Interest rate risk, r 3. ‘Liquidity risk’, δ Markov in r State variables: ( Et , Lt , rt ) 21

  22. Slide 22: A useful benchmark: no financial friction

    A useful benchmark: no financial friction ‘Financially unconstrained bank’: • No financial constraint imposed; D < 0 without cost. • Modigliani-Miller result for lending: N U ( Et , Lt , rt ) = N U (rt ) (‘balance sheet does not matter’) • This bank always keeps capital at the regulatory minimum: DU

  40. Slide 40: A Look at the Data

    A Look at the Data: “Do Monetary Policy Effects on Bank Lending Depend on Bank Capitalization?” Model predicts a negative lending response to a monetary policy induced rise in the interest rate: ∂ Et [ ∆Lt + s | ( Et , Lt , rt )] ≤ 0, for s ≥ 0 ∂rt which is more pronounced for low capital banks: ∂ 2

  41. Slide 41: Empirical Method

    Empirical Method: Idea: ∆Lit = α (Cit −1 ) + γ (Cit −1 )∆rt + ... + ε it Lit Log of Total Loans of bank i at the end of quarter t Cit Capital Asset Ratio of bank i at the end of quarter t ∆rt Identified monetary policy shock, Christiano, Eichenbaum, Evans (1994) ∂γ (Cit −1 ) Expect ∂C ≥0 it −1 27

  42. Slide 42: Empirical specification by capitalization and size class

    ∆Lit = α [ it ] + B[ it ] ( L)∆Lit −1 + Γ[it ] ( L)∆rt + ... + ε it where [it] = lo if Cit-5 < 0.06 [it] = mid if 0.06 < Cit-5 < 0.09 [it] = hi if Cit-5 > 0.09 Estimated separately for three different size classes: Percentiles Perc. of lo mid hi in size distr. assets Small 0 – 90 20 % 0.08 0.52 0.40

  43. Slide 43: Larger Banks

    Larger Banks: • May have better access to stock market and better hedging  smaller bank capital channel • Tend to have a more diversified loan portfolio than small banks (lower charge-off risk), so they tend to hold a smaller buffer stock of equity. If maturity mismatch is the same as small banks 
