  • Vulnerable Banks
    Vulnerable Banks Robin Greenwood Harvard University and NBER Augustin Landier Toulouse School of Economics David Thesmar HEC Paris and CEPR First draft: October 2011 Current draft: October 2012 Abstract When a bank experiences a negative shock to its equity, one way to return to target leverage is to sell assets. If asset sales occur at depressed prices, then one bank’s sales may impact other banks with common exposures, resulting in contagion. We propose a simple framework that accounts for how this effect adds up across the banking sector. Our framework explains how the distribution of bank leverage and risk exposures contributes to a form of systemic risk. We compute bank exposures to system-wide deleveraging, as well as the spillover of a single bank’s deleveraging onto other banks. We use the model to evaluate a variety of crisis interventions, such as mergers of good and bad banks, and equity injections. We apply the framework to European banks vulnerable to sovereign risk in 2010 and 2011. We are grateful to Tobias Adrian, Laurent Clerc, Linda Goldberg, Sam Hanson, Anil Kashyap, Yueran Ma, Jamie McAndrews, Thomas Philippon, Carmen Reinhart, Andrei Shleifer, Jeremy Stein, Adi Sunderam, and seminar participants at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, Federal Reserve Board of Governors, TSE-Banque de France conference in Paris, Harvard, Sciences-Po, Zûrich and the NBER International and Risks of Financial Institutions conferences for their input. I. Introduction Financial stress experienced by banks can contaminate other banks and spiral into a shock that threatens the broader financial system: this is systemic risk.

  • Border Crossing: How a U.K. Banker Helps U.S. Clients Trim Their Taxes
    Border Crossing: How a U.K. Banker Helps U.S. Clients Trim Their Taxes --- Deals Devised by Roger Jenkins Of Barclays Capital Lift Own Firm's Fortunes, Too --- Paid Once, Credited Twice ---- By Carrick Mollenkamp and Glenn R. Simpson The Wall Street Journal via Dow Jones, 30 June 2006 LONDON -- At Barclays PLC, a British bank steeped in 300 years of tradition, the work of a team led by banker Roger Jenkins is far from traditional. For instance, in 2003 his team set up a company with no employees, no products and no customers -- just a mailing address in Delaware and a slate of British directors, mostly employees of his office. It was co-owned by Barclays and U.S. bank Wachovia Corp. The following year, according to documents filed in the United Kingdom, the jointly owned company had $317 million in profits. It paid U.K. taxes on them. Barclays and Wachovia were both able to claim credit for paying all of the tax. This was one of at least nine such structures Mr. Jenkins and his team have set up involving U.S. banks, which also included Wells Fargo & Co. and Bank of America Corp. The complex transactions involve a strategy called tax arbitrage, which plays off one nation's tax system against another to reduce the banks' tax bills. Barclays is the leader in this esoteric field. It collects hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue generated by Mr. Jenkins's group. His team of lawyers and bankers has helped turn Barclays from a sleepy Main Street lender into an investment-banking power.

Notes and Comments Wachovia Bank, N.A. v. Burke: Preemption of State Law With Respect to National Bank Operating Subsidiaries I. INTRODUCTION With its roots grounded in the Supremacy Clause of the United States Constitution, the preemption doctrine has been used by national banks for over 140 years to avoid following dozens of distinct sets of state banking regulations.' Currently, however, there is a growing national debate over the scope of preemption and the extent to which 2 national banks are authorized to preempt state laws. One area in particular where this debate is emerging is that of national bank operating subsidiaries. Are national banks operating subsidiaries, like their national bank parents, exempt from following 3 state regulations as a result of preemption? This was precisely the question presented to the U.S.
