Increasing profitability through contingent convertible capital: Empirical evidence from European banks

This study investigates the effects of using additional tier 1 (AT1) capital instruments on bank profitability. It is motivated by the fact that the use of contingent convertible bonds (CoCo bonds) instead of equity offers a tax shield and incentives for efficient risk taking. I empirically analyze a panel dataset of 231 banks from EEA countries as well as Switzerland from 2014 to 2018. My analysis shows that the potential tax shield partly determines the use of CoCo bonds, and that the use of CoCo bonds instead of equity as AT1 capital significantly increases bank profitability.

Tax reforms and the capital structure of banks

This paper studies the link between corporate income tax (CIT) reforms and domestic banks’ financing decisions. We use a dataset of CIT reforms and estimate the effect of tax rate changes on leverage, dividend policies and earnings management of banks. The results suggest that taxation influences all three variables. Leverage increases with the CIT rate in the first three years after the reform. The reason is that the statutory CIT rate determines the value of the debt tax shield. A higher tax rate increases incentives to use debt finance when interest payments are deductible from the CIT base. The tax effects we find are statistically and economically significant but considerably lower than those found in previous research. Also, dividend pay-outs increase after an increase in CIT rates. This could indicate that banks actively manage their pay-out policies around tax reforms and adjust their capital structure with changes in dividends. Furthermore, banks increase loss loan reserves in anticipation of tax rate cuts since losses become less valuable with lower CIT rates.     

Accounting for banks,capital regulation and risk-taking

This paper examines risk-taking incentives in banks under different accounting regimes in presence of capital regulation. In the model the bank jointly determines the capital issuance and investment policy. Given an exogenous minimum capital requirement, lower-of-cost-or-market accounting is the most effective regime that induces the bank to issue more excess equity capital above the minimum required level and implement less risky investment policy. However, the disciplining role of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting may discourage the bank from exerting project discovery effort ex-ante. From the regulator’s perspective, the accounting regime that maximizes the social welfare is determined by a tradeoff between the social cost of capital regulation and the efficiency of the bank’s project discovery efforts. When the former effect dominates, the regulator prefers lower-of-cost-or-market accounting; when the latter effect dominates, the regulator may prefer other regimes.     

商业银行与资本市场及银证合作

一、商业银行与资本市场的关系 商业银行传统上一直是间接融资的媒介,主要利用信贷和信用工具为客户融资,经营领域主要在货币市场.但是自从20世纪80年代以来情况有了很大变化.从国际来看,商业银行直接参与资本市场,银行业务与资本市场业务的融合已成金融业发展的主要趋势之一,这就是国际金融业的混业经营趋势.客观地看,银行从间接融资中介市场转入直接融资的资本市场有着深刻的原因.     

Optimal fiscal and monetary policy in an economy without capital

This paper is concerned with the structure and time-consistency of optimal fiscal and monetary policy in an economy without capital. In a dynamic context, optimal taxation means distributing tax distortions over time in a welfare-maximizing way. For a barter economy, our main finding is that with debt commitments of sufficiently rich maturity structure, an optimal policy, if one exists, is time-consistent. In a monetary economy, the idea of optimal taxation must be broadened to include an ‘inflation tax’, and we find that time-consistency does not carry over. An optimal ‘inflation tax’ requires commitment by ‘rules’ in a sense that has no counterpart in the dynamic theory of ordinary excise taxes. The reason time-consistency fails in a monetary economy is that nominal assets should, from a welfare-maximizing point of view, always be taxed away via an immediate inflation in a kind of ‘capital levy’. This emerges as a new possibility when money is introduced into an economy without capital.

Board financial expertise and the capital decisions of US banks

We examine whether increasing financial expertise among independent directors facilitates bank capital decisions that promote financial stability. We find US banks with more financial expert independent directors opt for higher target capital ratios and adjust faster their capital structure when they are below the target. We provide evidence suggesting that our results are driven by the skill-set of these directors that lead to a better understanding of bank risks and access to external recapitalization choices. Our findings are further amplified by an increase in the exposure to losses of financial expert directors and by exogenous increases in regulatory scrutiny.
