Summary

Finance is the root of the economic systems. Positive or negative developments in the financial sector directly affect the economy of the countries. One of the fundamental components of the financial sector is the banking sector. Financial markets, which are one of the basic elements of national economies and the banking sector, form the basis of all world economies directly or indirectly. For this purpose, current affairs in both financial markets and banking sector are analysed by academicians and practitioners in different point of views.

1 Systemic Risk, Causes and Precautions1

Abstract: There are several ongoing studies on systemic risks and related preventive measures that have been one of the most popular topics after the 2008 financial crisis. This chapter researches the concept of systemic risks and gives definitions of systemically important financial institutions, and global and domestic systemically important banks, as well. This study includes the reasons for systemic risks and the necessary precautions to be taken to reduce them. It differs from other studies with respect to the overall general concept of systemic risks.

Keywords: Systemic Risk, Financial Crisis, Precautions, financial Institutions

1 Introduction

Financial institutions subject to systemic risks and economic damages caused by them, as well as the reasons for systemic risks, have become the most often discussed topics in the academic and financial environment due to the last economic crisis that started in 2007 and was distributed to all financial markets in 2008.

Systemic risk which has become one of the most discussed issues in the literature since the 2008 financial crisis has no single definition. Instead, there are many alternative definitions highlighting the systemic risk in the literature. Some of these are given below.

BIS (Bank for International Settlements) defines systemic risk as the risk emerging when the failure of a financial institution to meet its obligations creates a chain reaction and affects other institutions negatively, leading to financial difficulties in a broad sense. This definition emphasizes the domino effect of systemic risks (BIS, 1994: 177).

Rochet and Tirole (1996: 733) define it as the propagation of a bank’s economic distress to other economic agents linked to that bank through financial transactions.

G-10 defines systemic risk as follows in the report on Consolidation in the Financial Sector published in 2001:

←11 | 12→

Systemic financial risk is the risk that an event will trigger a loss of economic value or confidence in, and attendant increases in uncertainly about, a substantial portion of the financial system that is serious enough to quite probably have significant adverse effects on the real economy. Systemic risk situations can occur suddenly and unexpectedly, or the possibility of systemic risk occurs when there are no appropriate political arrangements. Negative economic impacts resulting from systemic risks are generally seen as the disruption of the payment system and credit flows and the disappearance of asset values. (G-10, 2001: 126)

Kaufman and Scott (2003: 371) define systematic risk as the risk or probability of breakdowns in an entire system, as opposed to breakdowns in individual parts or components, and is evidenced by comovements (correlation) among most or all the parts.

ECB (European Central Bank) defines systemic risk as the risk in which financial instability becomes so widespread that it impairs the functioning of a financial system to the point where economic growth and welfare suffer materially (ECB, 2009: 135).

Erdem Başçı, who was the Central Bank Governor of Turkey from April 2011 to April 2016, highlighted the contagious effect of systemic risk in the opening speech he made at the G-20 conference titled “Financial Systemic Risk” held in Istanbul on September 27, 2012. He emphasized the interdependence among financial institutions while explaining the concept of systemic risk.

As stated by Smaga (2014: 2), systemic risk is much more than a single risk affecting financial institutions. Risks such as credit risks, liquidity risks, and operational risks, etc., directly affect the relevant institutions while systemic risk occurs indirectly.

Some of the studies in the literature on systemic risk are about definitions of systemic risk while others are aimed at measuring the systemic risks. Studies aimed at preventing systemic risks also show what can be done to reduce these risks. This part first gives a summary of the literature including studies on measurement of systemic risks and then mentions systemically important financial institutions (SIFIs), reasons for systemic risks, and precautions that can be taken to prevent such risks.

2 Literature Summary

The literature including theoretical and empirical studies on systemic risks is expanding each passing day. This section has been limited to studies on systemic risks. There is no single or standard method used to measure systemic risks revealed by the literature review. This risk is measured with different approaches ←12 | 13→in the relevant literature. It is not clearly known which one reflects this risk correctly.

The leading studies in the literature on measurement of systemic risks are briefly mentioned below:

Lehar (2005: 2582) defined systemic risks using the model developed by Merton (1974) and the default probabilities of financial institutions in the study that was based on asset returns and liabilities. In this way, the possibility of financial institutions’ failure to make payments was calculated.

Huang et al. (2009: 2039) suggested the distress insurance premium technique as a systemic risks measurement method that tries to predict the asset-return correlation and is based on calculation of insurance premiums of banks using banks’ default probabilities for possible financial crisis situations.

Segoviano and Goodhart (2009: 16–17) have created a banking stability index that is aimed at measuring interconnectedness of banks and their impacts on each other during an economic crisis using credit default swap data and tries to predict the systemic risks.

Adrian and Brunnermeier (2008: 1–2) suggested the CoVaR method to measure systemic risks. They defined CoVaR as the value-at-risk (VaR) of the financial system conditional on a financial institution being under distress. In this method, the contribution of a financial institution to the systemic risks of the system is shown with ∆CoVaR.

Acharya et al. (2010: 2–3) suggested the MES (Marginal Expected Shortfall) method. Using this method, they concluded that a bank with higher MES value made a bigger contribution to the systemic risks. Afterwards, Brownless and Engle (2012: 2–3) suggested the Systemic Risk (SRISK) method, which is related to MES. This method aims to predict the capital amount that will be needed by the financial institution in the next economic crisis.
