Trends, Issues, and Challenges in Banking and Finance

Financial and Non-Financial Risks, Corporate Governance, and Regulation

This book discusses non-bank financial intermediation as an alternative or complement to formal banking. With a focus on emerging and developing economies, which face far greater consequences of high risk taking and withdrawal of credit from their financial systems, the book starts with an overview of non-bank financial intermediation, including shadow banking activities, instruments and functions. It covers the main types of activities classified under non-bank financial intermediation and the different players in the non-bank financial system. The interconnectedness between shadow banking and formal banks and their consequential risks will be analysed. Furthermore, the book analyses recent data on shadow banking with a view to estimate the extent of riskiness in shadow banking activities. Analysis of risk spillovers between the formal banking system and shadow banks will be conducted and contribution of shadow banking to systemic risk metrics is also presented.Sheunesu Zhou is an Associate Professor in the Department of Economics at the University of Zululand, South Africa where he teaches both undergraduate and postgraduate, economics and finance courses. He has written a number of original research articles on the topic of shadow banking under the broad theme of non-bank financial intermediation and financial development. Prof Zhou has wider research interests in financial economics and macroeconomic policy formulation, and the application of econometric methods in economic policy analysis.

The Growth and Development of Non-Bank Financial Intermediation

Shadow Banking and Financial Risk in Emerging and Developing Markets

This book examines several contemporary issues which are shaping corporate governance in the banking sector. These issues have been evolving over the past decade and even more so since the Global Financial Crisis (GFC, 2007-09) revealed many significant weaknesses in corporate governance structures at banks. Alongside major reforms to the architecture of the global financial system, like the introduction of the Basel 3 Accord, the post-GFC emergence of new issues and acceleration in the importance of others is affecting banks, their competitiveness and business models, and their governance structures. For instance, the emergence and rapid growth of FinTech (financial technology), the increasing focus of government and society on CSR (corporate social responsibility) and ESG (environment, social and governance) investing that speaks to the generational issue of the environment, climate change and associated risks. On top of these developments came the COVID-19 health pandemic that has impacted banks and significantly increased the rate of digitalization. Given the many challenges culminating around banks, this book in three sections provides a timely comparison of the factors influencing corporate governance at banks before and after the GFC, and will be of interest to researchers and students in banking and corporate finance alongside practitioners and policymakers.&nbsp;Timothy King is a&nbsp;Professor of Finance at the School of Accounting and Finance at the University of Vaasa, Finland.

Innovations and Adaptations in a Changing Landscape

Corporate Governance in the Banking and Financial Sector

This book examines the banking innovation and performance improvements arising from Bank-FinTech M&amp;As. It explores the trends and characteristics of M&amp;A operations in the banking industry, with a focus on the threats and opportunities that arise from a bank’s equity investments in FinTech firms and the impact on their performance. It offers a holistic assessment of bank performance metrics, such as profitability, operational efficiency, riskiness, and Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) score. Furthermore, the book presents novel and valuable analytical perspectives by analysing the role played by business models on these performance metrics following the M&amp;A operations. The book supports strategic decision-making processes for banking practitioners while providing new policy implications for regulators and banking supervisory authorities. Finally, the book will be of interest to researchers and students in finance and digital innovation in banking.Greta Benedetta Ferilli is a Research Fellow in Banking and Finance at the University of Salento, Lecce (Italy). She was a Visiting Researcher at Bangor Business School (UK), where she is currently a member of the Institute of European Finance.

A Performance Assessment of the Global Banking System

Bank-FinTech M&As and Banking Innovation

The book investigates commercial banking, covering the European framework, the Anglo-Saxon systems, and the Asian area in a comparative approach in trying to answer the following questions:&nbsp;Which is the commercial banking business model of the future? What do we expect a bank to be and to do in the new economic and social reality? How might banking supervision over commercial banks as well as market competition change? The book showcases how three factors or&nbsp;driving forces influence the future of commercial banking: i)&nbsp;fintech innovations&nbsp;(such as artificial intelligence, cryptocurrencies, blockchain, algorithmic trading, machine learning and electronic payments, to name a few),&nbsp;ii)&nbsp;covid-19 measures,&nbsp;and iii)&nbsp;SDG policy priorities. Geared toward academics, scholars and students of banking and financial services, the book will explore how these three factors have different weight in the different legal contexts.

A Cross-Country Analysis

Commercial Banking in Transition

The traditional role of a bank was to transfer funds from savers to investors, engaging in maturity transformation, screening for borrower risk and monitoring for borrower effort in doing so. A typical loan contract was set up along six simple dimensions: the amount, the interest rate, the expected credit risk (determining both the probability of default for the loan and the expected loss given default), the required collateral, the currency, and the lending technology. However, the modern banking industry today has a broad scope, offering a range of sophisticated financial products, a wider geography -- including exposure to countries with various currencies, regulation and monetary policy regimes -- and an increased reliance on financial innovation and technology. These new bank business models have had repercussions on the loan contract. In particular, the main components and risks of a loan contract can now be hedged on the market, by means of interest rate swaps, foreign exchangetransactions, credit default swaps and securitization. Securitized loans can often be pledged as collateral, thus facilitating new lending. And the lending technology is evolving from one-to-one meetings between a loan officer and a borrower, at a bank branch, towards potentially disruptive technologies such as peer-to-peer lending, crowd funding or digital wallet services. This book studies the interaction between traditional and modern banking and the economic benefits and costs of this new financial ecosystem, by relying on recent empirical research in banking and finance and exploring the effects of increased financial sophistication on a particular dimension of the loan contract.&nbsp;

How Banks and Financial Technology Are Reshaping Financial Markets

Banking and Financial Markets

Since the last financial crisis, much work has been undertaken to strengthen the ability to respond to distress in the EU financial system. However, reforms enacted since the Single Resolution Mechanism was created in July 2014 as part of the Banking Union initiated in 2012 mainly focused on non-performing loans, and the third pillar of the Banking Union, namely a European Deposit Insurance Scheme, has not been completed.Against this backdrop, this book focuses on the reasons why the EU banking system continues to remain fragile. In particular, high stocks of non-performing loans in some countries, the Level 3 assets evaluation and high exposure of many banks to the debts of their own governments are among the major concerns. Secondly, the book discusses the completion of the public safety net for banks, including deposit insurance, which remains primarily at the national level. This creates scope for contagion from banking sector fragility to national sovereign debt distress. Of interest to banking researchers, academics and students, this book combines rigorous analysis of the regulatory framework and empirical investigation on EU banking system data to prove that market discipline and risk sharing should be viewed as complementary pillars of the Euro-area financial architecture rather than as substitutes, requiring a reformed institutional framework.

Completing the Banking Union

Risk and Regulation in Euro Area Banks

Over the past 20 years, the increased dominance in banking of the shareholder ownership model, whose main purpose is to maximize financial returns for shareholders, has proved to be a toxic combination with the financial deregulation the sector has undergone, the creation of new financial instruments and the concomitant rising levels of debt. Despite the growing role of private limited-liability banks around the world, co-operative banking still offers a compelling alternative, especially in Europe where the roots of co-operative institutions date back to the nineteenth century.



This book studies the characteristics of different co-operative banking models of networks across several European countries to assess their impact on the profitability and resilience of the networks and their co-operative components. To date, empirical studies have neglected to examine the features of the networks to which co-operative banks belong. Surprisingly, there is little evidence on the extent to which the diverse organizational network structures determine differences in the profits and stability of&nbsp; individual banks and their networks across different countries. The principal objective of this book is to fill this gap in the literature. The European countries considered are Austria, Finland, France, Germany, Italy and the Netherlands. In these countries, co-operative banks constitute a significant presence although the organizational forms their networks take are quite different. Focusing on this sample of European countries therefore affords insights and reveals policy implications about the role that network organizations play in driving the performances of co-operative banks, which will be of interest to academics, researchers, and students of banking and financial institutions.

Co-operative Banking Networks in Europe

This Palgrave Pivot analyses the evolution of strategies and business models adopted by financial operators that employ technological solutions to deliver financial products and services. The analysis is performed on a proprietary dataset built on different sources that highlight important differences in strategical approaches taken by FinTech companies, TechFin and BigTech, and banks (traditional and digital native). For each type, the authors underline their distinctive patterns, strengths and weaknesses. The main focus of the analysis in on the European market that is investigated also in the light of the difference and similarities with other markets (such as US and China).The unbundling and re-bundling of productive processes in finance, the treatment of information and the level of innovation in the customer relationship highlight the intense change that the banking activities of new financial services providers are currently dealing with, especially the retailsegment.&nbsp; Despite the main international banks’ implementation of innovative strategical approaches to take advantage of the digitalization of business and cope with competition, so far the level of the disruption brought by FinTech is not fully understood or widespread.&nbsp;This holds especially true for the smaller banks: the latter need to take a proactive approach to individuate a business model able to satisfy the new customer needs and the competitive pressure that are destined to increase and further evolve. This book addresses this and would appeal to academics, researchers and students of banking, FinTech and financial innovation alongside policy makers, regulatory authorities, FinTechs and banks.

Digitalisation and Its Impact on Banking Business Models

FinTech, BigTech and Banks

The aim of this book is twofold: Firstly to focus on the development of new instruments and topics in the financial industry. Secondly to analyze the development of “old” themes applied to different international contexts, such as cross-border banking and the role of government financial resources in China. With these goals in mind, the book explores the investigation of new instruments for the financing of SMEs and new ventures, such as mini bonds and equity crowdfunding. Additionally, it covers the field of corporate governance and corporate social responsibility including financial inclusion, gender roles, disclosure, social media roles and litigation. The book also investigates the choices followed by the Royal Swedish Academy in the selection of Nobel laureates in economics science to analyze their influence on the financial industry. Geared to banking academics, researchers and students, this book uncovers the most prominent issues within the banking industry today.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;

Investigating New Trends and Recent Developments in the Financial Industry

Frontier Topics in Banking

One of the lessons learned from the Global Financial Crisis of 2007–9 is that minimum capital requirements are a necessary but inadequate safeguard for the stability of an intermediary. Despite the high levels of capitalization of many banks before the crisis, they too experienced serious difficulties due to insufficient liquidity buffers. Thus, for the first time, after the GFC regulators realized that liquidity risk can jeopardize the orderly functioning of a bank and, in some cases, its survival. Previously, the risk did not receive the same attention by regulators at the international level as other types of risk including credit, market, and operational risks. The GFC promoted liquidity risk to a significant place in regulatory reform, introducing uniform international rules and best practices. The literature has studied the potential effects of the new liquidity rules on the behaviour of banks, the financial system, and the economy as a whole.This book provides a comprehensive understanding of the bank liquidity crisis that occurred during the GFC, of the liquidity regulatory reform introduced by the Basel Committee with the Basel III Accord, and its implications both at the micro and macroeconomic levels.

Interest Groups, Advocacy and Democracy Series

This book examines the strategies employed by business interest groups in response to the challenges posed by the global financial crisis of 2008-9. Drawing on evidence from Switzerland, it assesses three policy areas – financial regulation, tax policy and corporate governance – to illustrate the long-term dynamics of advocacy strategies, and the ways in which these groups navigated the complexities of the post-crisis landscape by adapting their coalitions. The book demonstrates that business interest groups employed both direct and indirect advocacy strategies to navigate the crisis, highlighting the importance of perceived legitimacy for these groups. It will appeal to all those interested in policy-making, interest groups, political science and financial regulation. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Laura Gatto is Researcher at the Swiss Graduate School of Public Administration, University of Lausanne, Switzerland.&nbsp;
