An hir, wha is h rol ha h uncrainy posiion chang plays? In on wor, h rlaionship bwn AFE an h banking managr is h ky. Our rsuls focus on boh paris' quilibrium args. Comparisons bwn rminisic nvironmn an sochasic sing ar also rla. Th rsuls also suggs h rach ffc occurs ovrim unr asy yp an AFE has wo conflicing incnivs whn signing conrac.

Th final par summarizs our conclusions an givs som oulooks for fuur rsarch. Th Two-prio Mol In his scion, w analyz h rlaionship bwn h AFE an banking managr in banking managmn cass in a wo-prio mol. W also assum ha for h sam banking managr h ifficuly of h cas os no chang in any cour lvl. W fin banking managmn cass only hav wo yps for h banking managr: h asy yp an h ifficul yp. Whn haning in a cas, a banking managr woul hav four sragis. Firs, if h cas is asy yp, h can rpor i honsly. con, if h cas is asy yp, h banking managr can xaggra h ifficuly an hrfor g mor pay from h ockholrs. Thir, if h cas is ifficul yp, h banking managr rpors h ifficuly ruhfully. Fourh, if h cas is ifficul yp, h banking managr may lighn h ifficuly. Th las sragy is a lil bi ifficul o b unrsoo. If h banking managr os so, h will los a par of pay in his cas. Bu whn w consir h rpuaion incniv, h banking managr may boas 953

Assum ha conracs ar shor-rm an sign a bginning of ach prio. Th AFE has no nough powr o commi o fuur conracs. Tha is a ncssary coniion for h rach ffc o b a concrn. Morovr, risk managmn cos is affc by unobsrvabl nois, as is in h gnral mol of Jischko al (00. In prio, ( =, a hir banking managr rpors o h AFE h risk managmn risk managmn coss involv in running h cas. Th risk managmn cos is: c = β, =, Each prio h banking managr s pay is U = s (, whr s is h n monary ransfr h rcivs from h AFE an ψ ( is his isuiliy of ffor ( ψ '( > 0, ψ ''( > 0. No ha boh h AFE an h banking managr ar risk-nural. Th social prformanc is fin as following: W = D + U ( + λ [ c + s ] whr D is h valu of h cas. Th AFE sks o maximiz xpc financial safy an banking prformanc. Unr prfc informaion ( β = β = β, ach prio, h AFE woul solv: { D + U ( + λ [ c s ]} W = max + s, = s s.. U ψ ( 0 Th iniviual raionaliy consrain U = s ( 0 implis ha h uiliy lvl of h banking managr mus b nough o paricipa. Th opimal soluion is characriz by s = ψ, =, whr ψ '( =. ( Thus, unr prfc informaion h ffor of h banking managr is opimal an h marginal isuiliy of ffor is qua o marginal risk managmn cos saving [4].. Two-Prio Conracs unr Asymmric Informaion In his scion, w apply our basic mol o a wo-prio, wo-yp asymmric informaion cas. Th rach ffc canno b avoi sinc w suppos ha h AFE canno commi o a wo prio conrac. Th squnc of vns for h gam is givn by: (Th banking managr simas h cas (afr simaion h knows h xac lvl of h ifficuly of h cas an rpors h cas s ifficuly, which has wo valus β an β ( 0 < β < β, o h AFE.

Th banking managr ihr accps h conrac or rjcs i. If h rjcs h conrac h will rciv his rsrvaion uiliy of 0 an h rlaionship is issolv. (3If h banking managr accps h conrac, in h firs-prio, h paricipas in h cas; h ranom shock ε an hnc h risk managmn cos c ar raliz an obsrv by AFE. (4Th AFE upas hr blifs an offrs a scon-prio conrac. In nw conrac, h AFE may iscoun h xpc monary ransfr. Th banking managr ihr accps h nw conrac or rjcs i. W sar wih h scon-prio conrac. Th conracs offr by h AFE mus saisfy iniviual raionaliy an incniv compaibiliy consrains for ach yp. I : s ( 0, I : s ( 0, 954

3 IC : s ψ ( s (, IC : s ψ ( s ( Incniv compaibiliy implis h conrac sign for h yp h on prfrr by h yp. Iniviual raionaliy nsurs h paricipaion of banking managr [5]. Th quilibriums in which h banking managr civs shoul b consir. Typ I: IC an I bin an h banking managr may aggraniz h ifficuly of h asy cas wih probabiliy x. Typ II: IC an I bin an h banking managr may lighn h ifficuly of h ifficul cas wih probabiliy y. Typ III: IC, IC an I bin an h banking managr may ihr aggraniz (h asy cas or lighn (h ifficul on h ifficuly of h cas. In h siuaion of h cas is ifficul an h banking managr may lighn h ifficul (Typ II, i is obvious ha if his happns h pay of h banking managr crass. Typ II canno b opimal for h AFE for h cas whr α =. Hnc w concnra on quilibrium of Typ I an Typ III in his papr. In h rs of his papr w choos isuiliy of banking managr as a quaraic, α ψ ( = [ max(,0 ]. For simpliciy, w assum α = an η > c c (hr is a no larning zon. 3 mi-sparaing Equilibriums W now allow for h possibiliy ha h banking managr chas in h firs prio; in paricular, h rpors β, h cas s ru ifficuly, wih probabiliy x [ 0,]. Accoringly, h AFE upas hr ρ( x blif in h scon prio, so hr posrior blif ha h cas is asy yp is: ρ = ρ ρx In h sochasic sing, h acual risk managmn cos obsrv by h AFE is subjc o nois. Thus, rgarlss of h banking managr s sragis, h AFE migh no obsrv risk managmn coss iffrn o hos associa wih h sragis. As w iscuss bfor, h probabiliy of obsrving a rvaling risk managmn cos of h asy cas (xcluing h banking managr s sragis for a momn is θ, which is fin as: + θ = Pr( c < c η = Pr( c < c + η = η imilarly, h probabiliy of a non-rvaling risk managmn cos is η ( + θ = η Thrfor, h xpc Prio prformanc is givn by: AI AI EW = ρ x θ W + ( θ W ( ρ + ( ρ x θ W ( ρ This xprssion is bas upon ha h AFE s blifs o no chang in scon prio if sh can obsrv h non-rvaling risk managmn cos, whil sh can upa hr blifs if c > c + η. In h firs prio, hr ar hr possibiliis:th cas is asy yp, an h banking managr rpors ruhfully, wih probabiliy ρ x, ha yils prformanc: W = pd ( p( + λ ( C + β λ s. 955

4 Th cas is asy yp, h banking managr chas, wih probabiliy ρ ( x, ha yils ( prformanc: W = pd ( p( + λ( C + β λ s.in h siuaion of h cas is ifficul yp, wih probabiliy ρ. Th banking managr ruhfully rpors h ifficuly, prformanc is: W = pd ( p( + λ ( C + β λ s. In prio, h xpc prformanc is givn by EW = ρ x W + ρ ( x W + ( ρ W. Th rlvan consrains ar β s iniviual raionaliy consrain ( I an β s incniv compaibiliy consrain ( IC. olv h AFE s problm in smi-sparaing quilibrium: max EW = EW + EW, Hnc, h AFE ajuss h banking managr s ffor lvl for h asy cas rlaiv o ha man in h sparaing quilibrium. Th sign of his ajusmn is rmin by : whn his is posiiv.this is inrsing sinc, as w hav sn, a rlaivly long-sigh AFE ( > is rquir for xprimnaion whn x = (sul. As xprimnaion involvs wining h ffor gap, h scon ffc w hav now iscovr rucs his ffc on β ' s ffor lvl whn x <. Combining his obsrvaion wih sul, w hav Lmma : In a smi-sparaing Typ I quilibrium, a ncssary coniion for o incras in h sochasic cas, rlaiv o h rminisic on, is < <. Ψ Lmma : In a smi-sparaing Typ I quilibrium, a ncssary coniion for o incras in h sochasic cas, rlaiv o h rminisic on, is < <. Ψ 4 Conclusions an Oulook Th conclusions can b ivi by wo siuaions. Firs, h cas is an asy yp. I is obvious ha in his siuaion h banking managr can incras his profi hrough xaggraing h cas s ifficuly. Th prformanc analysis brings wo inrsing rsuls. Th formr is ha whn h AFE an h banking managr iscoun fuur a sam ra, h AFE has o incras h asy cas s risk managmn cos an ruc h ifficul cas s risk managmn cos. By his way, h AFE ncourags banking managr rpor ruhfully. In fac, as a AFE, h AFE has mor concrns abou fuur. This givs h lar rsul: Whn h iscoun facors ar iffrn an h AFE iscouns fuur havily, h asy cas s risk managmn cos is ruc an h ifficul cas s risk managmn cos is incras. Th conflic of hs wo rsuls implis a ilmma: Th AFE givs lss fuur pay o inify h ifficuly of h cas, bu his acion xacrbas h rach ffc. Th banking managr hrfor has mor incnivs o cha. If h banking managr can cha in h firs prio, h AFE ajuss h banking managr s ffor lvls, wih rspc o h ifficuly of h cas, rlaiv o ha man in h sparaing quilibrium. 956

5 con, h banking managr may cha whavr h cas s yp. This is h siuaion ha h banking managr may ihr xaggra or lighn h ifficuly of h cas. As w iscuss, his is possibl bcaus, u o rpuaion incniv, h banking managr may boas his abiliy an hnc lighns h cas s ifficuly. Thr ar hr rsuls o mphasiz. Firs, non-xprimnaion occurs whn h probabiliy ha h banking managr lighns h ifficuly is biggr han h probabiliy of aggranizing h ifficuly. con, whn h banking managr s iscoun ra riss, i os no affc whhr xprimnaion aks plac, bu i os affc h xn of xprimnaion or non-xprimnaion. Thir, h AFE s iscoun ra now plays no rol in whhr xprimnaion aks plac. ummarily, in his siuaion, h AFE s concrn abou h fuur os no affc args of h banking managr. Th rach ffc occurs an if h banking managr has goo firs prio prformancs h will hav incras xpcaions of pay. In aiion, h sa-own banks mus b commrcializ o mak profi-sking hir primary rason for xisnc. Enir nw mchanisms mus b pu in plac o nsur ha poliical figurs ar supplan by profssional managrs in ky posiions [6].
