In the wake of the still ongoing global financial crisis, bank interdependencies have come into focus in trying to assess linkages among banks and systemic risk. To date, such analysis has largely been based on numerical data. By contrast, this study attempts to gain further insight into bank interconnections by tappin…

Central bank strategy to maintain currency exchange rate within limits.

problem Maintaining a currency exchange rate within a target zone despite adverse economic trends.

Paper studies central bank's strategy to control systemic risk in interbank system.

problem Minimizing average distance between log-monetary reserves and target levels.

We consider a stochastic game between a trader and a central bank in a target zone market with a lower currency peg. This currency peg is maintained by the central bank through the generation of permanent price impact, thereby aggregating an ever increasing risky position in foreign reserves. We describe this situation…

We propose a simple model of inter-bank borrowing and lending where the evolution of the log-monetary reserves of NN banks is described by a system of diffusion processes coupled through their drifts in such a way that stability of the system depends on the rate of inter-bank borrowing and lending. Systemic risk is ch…

problem Understanding the economic characteristics of different cryptocurrencies.
method Characterization and analysis of different classes of cryptocurrencies using balance sheet operations.
result Different types of cryptocurrencies have distinct economic properties, ranging from commodities to liabilities of central banks.

We extend in a minimal way the stylized model introduced in in "Tipping Points in Macroeconomic Agent Based Models" [JEDC 50, 29-61 (2015)], with the aim of investigating the role and efficacy of monetary policy of a `Central Bank' that sets the interest rate such as to steer the economy towards a prescribed inflation …

Examines how central bank policies affect stock markets and asset prices.

problem Understanding the impact of monetary policy on stock markets and asset prices.
method Used Taylor rule equations to analyze data from 1990 to 2020 for US and UK, testing with various econometric methods.
result Monetary policy can explain asset price volatility and output gap better than just inflation rate.

Quantum computing aids in optimizing currency reserves for central banks.

problem Optimizing currency composition in foreign exchange reserves.
method Comparison of quantum and classical algorithms for portfolio optimization.
result Quantum algorithms outperform classical methods in currency optimization.

The process of contagiousness spread modelling is well-known in epidemiology. However, the application of spread modelling to banking market is quite recent. In this work, we present a system of ordinary differential equations, simulating data from the largest European banks. Then, an optimal control problem is formula…

Model analyzes optimal interbank networks during liquidity shocks, revealing core-periphery structures and co-investment requirements.

problem Formation of optimal interbank networks during liquidity shocks.
method Solves system-wide optimal control problem in two settings: decentralized and centralized.
result Decentralized setting leads to less cash reserves and greater vulnerability to shocks; core banks have highest co-investment requirements.

Bangladesh's banking sector improved through financial reforms, but challenges remain.

problem Weak asset quality, inadequate provisioning, and negative capitalization of state-owned banks.
method Two phases of reforms: private ownership promotion and gradual deregulation.
result Significant improvements in asset quality and capitalization, but challenges persist.

We investigate the macroeconomic consequences of narrow banking in the context of stock-flow consistent models. We begin with an extension of the Goodwin-Keen model incorporating time deposits, government bills, cash, and central bank reserves to the base model with loans and demand deposits and use it to describe a fr…

We report a study of a stylized banking cascade model investigating systemic risk caused by counter party failure using liabilities and assets to define banks' balance sheet. In our stylized system, banks can be in two states: normally operating or distressed and the state of a bank changes from normally operating to d…

Agents buy and sell services. All services are of equal quality. Buyers choose sellers at random. Monetary and fiscal policies are imposed by a central bank and a central government.

Consider the problem of a central bank that wants to manage the exchange rate between its domestic currency and a foreign one. The central bank can purchase and sell the foreign currency, and each intervention on the exchange market leads to a proportional cost whose instantaneous marginal value depends on the current …
