The goal of this paper is to estimate a dynamic model of a bank to explain how bank bailouts exacerbate moral hazard. In the model, a bank makes an endogenous choice of the risks of its investments and can nance these investments by deposits and risky debt. I estimate nine model parameters that characterize a bank’s behavior. For the full sample

We analyze in this paper if safety nets in banking create moral hazard. Specifically, we answer the question if capital preservation measures induce additional risk-taking. To this end, we develop a simple game-theoretical model to describe the actions of regulatory institutions and banks.

First, banks choose to correlate their risk exposures. Second, private borrowers may deliberately choose to increase their interest-rate sensitivity following bad news about future needs for liquidity. Third, optimal monetary policy is time inconsistent. Fourth, there is a role for macro-prudential supervision.

Nov 1, 2016 · The simulation results show that a bank with a higher bailout belief takes more risks, especially when it is very close to bankruptcy. The goal of this paper is to estimate a dynamic model of a bank to explain how bank bailouts exacerbate moral hazard.
