  • Bad Bank Resolutions and Bank Lending by Michael Brei, Leonardo Gambacorta, Marcella Lucchetta and Bruno Maria Parigi
    BIS Working Papers No 837 Bad bank resolutions and bank lending by Michael Brei, Leonardo Gambacorta, Marcella Lucchetta and Bruno Maria Parigi Monetary and Economic Department January 2020 JEL classification: E44, G01, G21 Keywords: bad banks, resolutions, lending, non-performing loans, rescue packages, recapitalisations BIS Working Papers are written by members of the Monetary and Economic Department of the Bank for International Settlements, and from time to time by other economists, and are published by the Bank. The papers are on subjects of topical interest and are technical in character. The views expressed in them are those of their authors and not necessarily the views of the BIS. This publication is available on the BIS website (www.bis.org). © Bank for International Settlements 2020. All rights reserved. Brief excerpts may be reproduced or translated provided the source is stated. ISSN 1020-0959 (print) ISSN 1682-7678 (online) Bad bank resolutions and bank lending Michael Brei∗, Leonardo Gambacorta♦, Marcella Lucchetta♠ and Bruno Maria Parigi♣ Abstract The paper investigates whether impaired asset segregation tools, otherwise known as bad banks, and recapitalisation lead to a recovery in the originating banks’ lending and a reduction in non-performing loans (NPLs). Results are based on a novel data set covering 135 banks from 15 European banking systems over the period 2000–16. The main finding is that bad bank segregations are effective in cleaning up balance sheets and promoting bank lending only if they combine recapitalisation with asset segregation. Used in isolation, neither tool will suffice to spur lending and reduce future NPLs. Exploiting the heterogeneity in asset segregation events, we find that asset segregation is more effective when: (i) asset purchases are funded privately; (ii) smaller shares of the originating bank’s assets are segregated; and (iii) asset segregation occurs in countries with more efficient legal systems.

  • 81-125 Peter Vass.Indd
    DOI: 10.33908/EF.2019.1.5 MEMBER BANKS OF THE HUNGARIAN BANKING ASSOCIATION 81 MEMBER BANKS OF THE HUNGARIAN BANKING ASSOCIATION Péter Vass ABSTRACT In its 30 years of existence, the Hungarian Banking Association has witnessed an extraordinary evolution in the banking sector.1 During this period, a total of 93 banks were registered in Hungary (in the form of companies limited by shares or branches), typically 40 to 50 operating at the same time. It was only for special reasons that the number of banks exceeded that upper limit, while it fell below 40 only during the transformation spurt aft er the introduction of the two-tier banking system, during the post-transition bank foundation fever up until 1991, and – seemingly – by surprise, during the bank sector boom in the early 2000s. Th e development and the continuous change of the institutional background has been driven by domestic processes in the fi eld of banking, economy and regulation alike, by the consequences of international structural developments (mergers, strategic partnerships and their dissolution) at the level of Hungarian subsidiary banks as well as by the individual development paths of certain banks. Th e length of this paper does not allow for a comprehensive in-depth analysis of all these motivators, but we consider that presenting the development of each member bank of the Banking Association within a common framework, focussing mainly on current members, would be informative. JEL codes: G21, N94 Keywords: history of the banking sector, banking history, banking sector entries and exits, bank mergers, competition 1 For the purposes of this article, banks and specialised credit institutions under Act CXII of 1996 on Credit Institutions and Financial Enterprises are regarded as part of the banking sector, not including KELER, which performs non-banking activities.

  • Identification of Other Systemically Important Institutions (2016)
    Identification of other systemically important institutions (2016) The MNB completed the annual revision of other systemically important institutions in Hungary, and identified eight credit institutions as systemically important. Compared to the identification carried out in 2015, the group of these institutions has proven to be stable; the change in their number was a result of the FHB Group’s joining the Integration Organization of Cooperative Credit Institutions. As of 1 January 2017, the MNB requires from each other systemically important institution to maintain an additional capital buffer. The phasing in of the capital buffer for other systemically important institutions will take place in a gradually increasing manner, in four years. The whole amount of the individually determined capital buffers will have to be built up by banks by 2020. As a result of the prolonged introduction period, market participants will be able to meet the new capital requirement while they increase their lending activity. Accordingly, the introduction of the requirement in four steps supports the smooth operation of the credit market, the strengthening of financial stability and the banking sector’s ability to contribute to economic growth in a sustainable manner over the longer term. Presumably, the need for additional capital raising and adjustment will not be considerable in the case of the majority of institutions, as the banking sector’s capital adequacy is sufficiently high.
