2 Introduction Since the Lehman collapse in September World went through the largest recession since the 1930s - Fiscal deficits increased in all countries - Sovereign debt crisis in Europe - Financial markets talk about redomination risk in the euro area These events were a direct consequence of the financial crisis and they provide a clear motivation for a continuous efforts to improve frameworks for financial stability analysis and policy 2

Some indicators of systemic risk and early warning models used in the ECB s financial stability analysis 3. Is early warning against systemic risks feasible? The example of Do we need an interdisciplinary approach? a) political economy: the fundamental issues regarding the long-term viability of EMU b) science of uncertainty: the process of risk identification 5. Conclusions 3
4 The new EU supervisory architecture Micro-prudential supervision Macro-prudential oversight European System of Financial Supervision Proposed: ECB (with national supervisors) European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority European Securities and Markets Authority European Banking Authority European Systemic Risk Board ECB National central banks European Supervisory Authorities European Commission National Supervisors (non-voting) President of the Economic and Financial Committee (non-voting) Ensure EU-wide technical supervisory standards Coordination of supervisors (also in crises) Issue risk warnings and, if necessary, Macro-prudential recommendations 4
5 The ECB definitions of financial stability and systemic risk Financial stability can be defined as a condition in which the financial system comprising of financial intermediaries, markets and market infrastructures is capable of withstanding shocks and the unravelling of financial imbalances, thereby mitigating the likelihood of disruptions in the financial intermediation process which are severe enough to significantly impair the allocation of savings to profitable investment opportunities. (ECB, Financial Stability Review, preface) Systemic risk: The risk that financial instability becomes so widespread that it impairs the functioning of a financial system to the point where economic growth and welfare suffer materially. 5 5
6 Economics of systemic risk Time series dimension of systemic risk Short-run buildup may occur when measured risk is low buildup may be linked to financial sector growth, underwriting standards, degree of monitoring, risk management of market participants => Challenge to build forward looking measures (Early Warning Models). versus cross sectional dimension of systemic risk: Interlinkages may enable risk sharing but also cause risk propagation Fire sale externality: deleveraging spills across institutions due to market illiquidity. Hoarding externality: institutions hoard lending capacity. Runs: e.g. on the shadow banking system Network externality: counterparty credit risk => Systemic Risk indicators 6
7 Focus on: Macroprudential oversight process Potential sources of systemic risk Risk identification Yes Vulnerability No Risk assessment Yes Material risk No Communication Detection of vulnerabilities, potential triggers, likelihood of risks materialising Selected tools: Set of financial stability indicators and early warning models Market intelligence Expert judgement Assessment of propagation channels, potential severity of risks identified and system s ability to absorb shocks Selected tools: Assessing propagation channels (including contagion and spillover models) Macro stress-testing Financial Stability Reports ESRB Risk warnings Policy response Possible macroprudential policy action by responsible authorities (not ECB) Price stability at risk in the long run? Possible monetary policy response (l-a-w) Feedback to risk monitoring and analysis Monitoring follow-up of recommendations and assessing policy impact 7
8 Six Origins of vulnerabilities: Aim to find robust early warning models and systemic risk indicators and implement Early Warning System 1. Macro (risk) Business cycle, global imbalances 2. Credit (risk) Households, non-financial corporations, public finances 3. Market (risk) Risk premia, asset price disequilibria 4. Liquidity and funding 5. Interlinkages and Imbalances 6. Profitability and Solvency Liquidity conditions, funding strategy and activity Operation linkages, counterparty interconnectedness, business models Financial performance, profitability outlook and risks Regulatory capital, financial gearing 8

Some indicators of systemic risk and early warning models used in the ECB s financial stability analysis 3. Is early warning against systemic risks feasible? The example of Do we need an interdisciplinary approach? a) political economy: the fundamental issues regarding the long-term viability of EMU b) science of uncertainty: the process of risk identification 5. Conclusions 22
23 Challenges risk surveillance: Interpretation of indicators varies with circumstances Many indicators of vulnerabilities have two interpretations: High bank solvency: improved shock absorption capacity or foregone lending opportunities? Narrow spreads: risks are low or mispriced? High loan to deposit ratios: efficient banking sector or funding vulnerability? Cross border market integration: risk sharing or contagion channel? High return on equity: profitable business model or excessive risk taking and leverage? 23
24 Is Early Warning Feasible? Majority of academics very critical: out-of-sample failure (!) (in sample overfitting, variable selection bias), reduced-form exercise (fundamental trend vs. growing imbalances?) Majority of policy makers (at least until crisis) dominated by fear of type II errors (false alarms) Goodhart s Law: Any observed statistical regularity will tend to collapse once pressure is placed upon it for control purposes. 24
25 Is Early Warning Feasible? Some careful optimism Preference shift from type I to type II errors might be significant due to depth of crisis (more balanced preferences increase usefulness, see Alessi/Detken, 2009) Easier to predict imbalances than crises (IMF/FSB EWE, ECB surveillance process) Application of (under explored) suitable methodologies, e.g. Classification and Regression Trees (simple but robust, conditional rules of thumb, Manasse/Roubini, 2008; also Ghosh and Ghosh, 2003) Data availability (housing prices; large data sets; FoF, cross-country exposures, individual bank balance sheet data) Important issues like out-of-sample validation, overfitting risk can be dealt with 25
26 Systemic risk surveillance - can we predict the financial cycle? Some indicators did (would have) predict(ed) the last financial cycle! In terms of performance there are three types of indicators: 1. Early Warning Models with structural indicators e.g. global credit gap: would have predicted financial crisis like many other past crises (caveat: also significant number of false alarms) 2. Structural indicators not (yet) subject to early warning evaluation (mainly due to lack of time series) e.g. leverage, house price valuation models: would have predicted crisis with hindsight difficult to decide on threshold value how much is too much? (typical question: financial development and catching up versus growing imbalances?) 3. Market based indicators e.g. based on price volatilities: not useful as early warning. These are thermometers not barometers. 26
27 Early Warning Indicators: A global credit gap - Some early warning indicators currently used by the ECB identified growing imbalances before the crisis Global credit gap and optimal early warning threshold (Q Q1 2012; percentages) - Global credit gap rising from 2002 onwards and above threshold Q Q Real time performance since 1970: 82% correct warnings 32% false alarms 95% of costly asset price booms predicted in at least one of 6 preceding quarters Source: Alessi, L. and Detken, D.

34 Outline 1. Institutional set up, definitions and the process regarding systemic risk identification 2. Some indicators of systemic risk and early warning models used in the ECB s financial stability analysis 3. Is early warning against systemic risks feasible? The example of Do we need an interdisciplinary approach? a) political economy: the fundamental issues regarding the long-term viability of EMU b) science of uncertainty: the process of risk identification 5. Conclusions 34
35 The three most fundamental issues regarding the long-term viability of EMU 1. Deficit Bias (especially forceful in a monetary union); e.g. Detken, Gaspar, Winkler (2004), ECB WP No SGP => Six Pack + Two Pack + Fiscal Compact => Fiscal Union 2. Productivity gaps: Is EMU an optimal currency area? Theory of endogenous optimal currency areas, adjustment not strong enough in first decade; e.g. Frankel and Rose (1998). Six Pack (MIP/EIP) + Compact for Growth and Jobs + European Semester + national structural reforms 3. (Partial) failure of (micro and macro-) supervisory process => excessive risk taking in financial sector; e.g. Padoa Schioppa (1999). Single Supervisory Mechanism => Banking Union + ESRB + reg. reforms e.g. Basel III 35
36 Many critical issues are being addressed but challenges remain, including: 1. Giving up national sovereignty versus mutual insurance of liabilities: does an equilibrium exist? 2. Feasible pace of change fast enough to regain investor confidence? => Political sciences / political economy key 36
37 Outline 1. Institutional set up, definitions and the process regarding systemic risk identification 2. Some indicators of systemic risk and early warning models used in the ECB s financial stability analysis 3. Is early warning against systemic risks feasible? The example of Do we need an interdisciplinary approach? a) political economy: the fundamental issues regarding the long-term viability of EMU b) science of uncertainty: the process of risk identification 5. Conclusions 37
38 Science of Uncertainty / Psychology Ludic Fallacy (Nassim Taleb, The Black Swan): Studying chance in narrow model of games and dice and ignoring uncertainty about rules of the game in real life Halo effect / judgement heuristics (Daniel Kahneman, Thinking Fast and Slow) - Excessive weight of first impression - System 1 dominating System 2 (System 1 infers and invents cause and intentions, neglects ambiguity, focuses on existing evidence and ignores absent evidence: intuitive story wins) 38
39 Do we need an interdisciplinary approach? This is nearly a rhetoric question, as deficiencies of mainstream economics have become so evident. So the answer is YES From a practitioneers perspective: We need (even) more attention to a) political economy / public choice issues. The main systemic risks materialising in the crisis could possibly have been contained with closer attention to polit-economic arguments in the design of the system (EMU). These issues are currently dealt with and corrected in a painful process. b) the science of uncertainty / psychology in order to avoid fallacies in the systemic risk identification process (e.g. ludic fallacy, halo effect, judgement heuristics of system 1). 39
40 Conclusions 1. The current macro-prudential surveillance process requires the ECB to supply the ESRB with regular risk analysis. An Early Warning System is being established work in progress. 2. Work on micro-prudential supervisory processes also has a bright future at the ECB - since yesterday. 3. A careful optimism that early warning against systemic risk is feasible in principle seems defendable, once best practices are adhered to, the improving data landscape and methodological progress (e.g. avoiding variable selection bias) and due to relatively simple key patterns of financial crises. 4. A real life risk surveillance process does benefit from interdisciplinary approaches. Behavioural patterns of supervisors and public choice logic in institutional design are key areas to focus on to mitigate and/or identify systemic risk. 40

42 Is early warning against systemic risk feasible?

43 Systemic Risk: Are there lessons to be learned? 1.(Partial) failure of (micro- and macro-) supervisory processes allowed a build up of systemic risk in the financial sector. The new European supervisory architecture has potential to correct the relevant deficiencies. 2. Current progress with early warning systems suggests that early warning is feasible, by focusing on best practices, and on structural patterns rather than on market based indicators. 43
