Knowledge of these indicators should assist attempts to implement institutional financial reform and improve an economy's resilien...

However, in financial network models, the details of how financial institutions interact typically play a decisive rol...

We integrate systemic financial instability in an empirical macroeconomic model for the euro area. We find that at times of widespread financial instability the macroeconomy functions fundamentally differently from tranquil times. We employ a richly specified MarkovSwitching Vector Autoregression model to capture the dynamic relationships between a set of core macroeconomic variables and a nove...

We predict firms’ systemic relevance as the marginal impact of individual downside ris...
