Therefore, the study relied on the hypothesis that “if China comes up with financial policies to reduce the exchange rate of its …

Policy Note | Discount Window Stigma: What's Design Got To Do With It?, Susan Mclaughlin Oct 2024

Policy Note | Discount Window Stigma: What's Design Got To Do With It?, Susan Mclaughlin

Journal of Financial Crises

This article utilizes discount window transaction data, which the Federal Reserve began disclosing in 2010, to assess how the Fed’s 2003 redesign of the discount window has affected banks’ use of the window. The data show that while the discount window remains stigmatized and relatively little used outside periods of funding market stress, secondary credit has at times played a role in supporting bank recovery and resolution, as envisioned by the 2003 redesign. This development raises a policy question: has the two-tiered design of the discount window implemented in 2003, in which a lending facility for sound banks operates alongside …


Policy Note | Weekly Fed Report Still Drives Discount Window Stigma, Steven Kelly Oct 2024

Policy Note | Weekly Fed Report Still Drives Discount Window Stigma, Steven Kelly

Journal of Financial Crises

As banking regulators work to destigmatize the Federal Reserve’s discount window—and fervently so since the 2023 banking crisis—they’ve pointed to several potentially fruitful policy routes. These have included supervisory improvements, regulatory changes, and operational enhancements by both the banks and the Fed. Left off the menu so far have been changes to the Fed’s weekly publications that reveal up-to-date discount window borrowing data by regional geography. Reforms following the Global Financial Crisis of 2007–2009 have made mandatory the disclosure of discount window borrowers on a two-year lag—higher transparency than previously when no disclosure was required. However, bigger banks, such as …

United States: Citigroup Capital Injection, 2008, Benjamin Hoffner, Vincient Arnold

Journal of Financial Crises

During the first three weeks of November 2008, Citigroup’s stock price dropped almost 80%, and its credit default swap spreads spiked as the market lost confidence in the bank’s ability to honor its commitments. Counterparties pulled away, and regulators determined Citi’s failure would constitute a systemic risk. On November 23, 2008, the Treasury, Federal Reserve Board, and Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation announced a package of measures to rescue Citi, which included an Asset Guarantee Program (AGP) to cover $306 billion in Citi’s assets and an ad hoc capital injection—the Targeted Investment Program (TIP). Under the guarantee, Citi would absorb the …

Switzerland: Schweizerische Volksbank Capital Injection, 1933, Anmol Makhija Oct 2024

Switzerland: Schweizerische Volksbank Capital Injection, 1933, Anmol Makhija

Journal of Financial Crises

Schweizerische Volksbank, or Swiss People’s Bank, grew to be the second-largest bank in Switzerland by 1930, when its balance sheet peaked at 1.7 billion Swiss francs (CHF). Beginning in 1929, nonperforming assets weighed on Volksbank’s profitability. By 1933, the bank faced losses on CHF 118.5 million in assets, representing approximately 10% of total assets. The government provided liquidity in the form of loans and deposits to Volksbank in 1931 and again in 1933 until it could finalize a capital injection. In 1933, the government determined that Volksbank was too important to the national economy to allow its failure. As owners …

Journal of Financial Crises

Caja de Ahorros Castilla–La Mancha (CCM) was a small Spanish savings bank with just 1% market share in deposits and loans. Following years of rapid credit expansion in the real estate sector and reliance on wholesale funding markets to carry out its operations between 2000 and 2008, CCM found itself on the brink of insolvency in early 2009, with a Tier 1 capital ratio of just 1.3%, compared with the 8% regulators required. The authorities placed the bank under administration in 2009. Consequently, the Spanish Savings Bank Deposit Guarantee Fund (Fondo de Garantía de Depósitos de Ahorros, or FGD) agreed …

The property finance division of SNS Reaal N.V., a financial conglomerate comprising SNS Bank, the fourth-largest Dutch bank, and Reaal Insurance, the second-largest Dutch life insurer, was heavily exposed to losses in the real estate sector from 2008 to 2010.

Korea: Korea First Bank And Seoul Bank Capital Injections, 1997, Jisoo Park, Owen Heaphy

Journal of Financial Crises

Korea First Bank (KFB) and Seoul Bank (SB) were two of the five largest commercial banks in Korea with high levels of exposure to conglomerates, which had high short-term foreign debt in the late 1990s. Starting in the late summer of 1997, Korea, like other Asian economies, experienced capital outflows due to international creditors’ reducing their exposures to Korean financial institutions. Banks relied on the Bank of Korea for foreign exchange liquidity support. The two banks became insolvent owing to high levels of nonperforming loans and required government recapitalization after experiencing a run in early December 1997. As financial conditions …

The 2017 recapitalization of Italy’s third-largest bank, Banca Monte dei Paschi di Siena (MPS), the oldest bank in the world, represents an unusual precautionary, “open bank” recapitalization under the European Union’s Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive (BRRD) rules. In 2015, the bank held the largest portfolio of nonperforming loans (NPLs) in Italy (with 34.8% of its total loans), and in 2016 it was the only bank to fail the European Banking Authority’s adverse scenario stress test, although its reported total capital ratio at the end of the year was 10.4%.
