Submitted by antoq on Wed, 02/24/2010 - 02:53

It’s that time again, the time when children get excited about lights, gifts, and giving, the time when grownups get excited about sharing time with friends and family, and cooking and eating great food. It’s also the time when everyone thinks about decorating the home, even though they may be very busy with work, family, and a variety of holiday activities.

Holiday decorating and entertaining should be about fun. There shouldn’t be pressure to get everything taken care of weeks in advance. Many people decorating and entertain right up until Christmas Eve. Creating magic just days before the holiday can help create the best memories of all.

Ebook Bank Regulation, Credit Ratings, and Systematic Risk

Submitted by puput on Mon, 08/29/2011 - 03:14

Government regulation of banks is pervasive, and its rationale stems from two factors: the inherent fragility of banks; and the negative externalities from bank failures. Banks provide liquidity by issuing demand deposits and also act as delegated monitors by making loans to opaque borrowers. This combination of loan-making and deposit-taking makes banks vulnerable to runs, as they finance relatively illiquid loans with liquid demand deposits. Individual bank fragility can, in turn, trigger contagious runs, even on healthy banks, culminating in system-wide failures with a consequent disruption of credit flows to the rest of the economy.

Ebook Banking Crises, Contagion, and Foreign: Asset Exposures of Canadian Banks

Submitted by puput on Sat, 03/13/2010 - 02:51

The role of banks as intermediaries in global financial markets continues to evolve as regulatory reform, financial product innovation, and information technology allow them to further broaden the scope of intermediation activity. A popular perception of this process is that banks have become more “globalized,” as witnessed by their ever-increasing operations in foreign jurisdictions. Canadian banks are no exception. At the same time,this perceived rise in the global nature of banks has occurred during a period of increased financial fragility. The 1990s, in particular, witnessed a plenitude of banking, currency, financial, and sovereign debt crises. Naturally, the growing frequency of crises, and the possibility that these crises could lead to contagion through the banking system, have received considerable attention from policy-makers and academics alike.

Despite the growing concern of the effect of financial crises and the possibility of contagion within globally integrated financial markets, little is known regarding the behaviour of Canadian banks’ foreign-asset exposures. Similarly, despite numerous empirical investigations, there is little evidence to support the notion that contagion exists (Karolyi 2003). Although a few studies have explored the potential for contagion and systemic risk in payment systems, the question of how banks’ foreign-asset exposures respond to crisis events remains largely unanswered. The objective of this paper is to address these two issues: first, to what extent have Canadian banks become increasingly globalized; and second, do Canadian banks’ foreign-asset exposures respond to contagious crisis events?
