Abstract:
Modern financial systems are complicated networks of interconnected
financial institutions and default of any of them may have serious consequences
for others. The recent crises have shown that complexity and interconnectedness
are the major factors of systemic risk, which became the subject of intensive
studies usually concentrated on static models. The authors develop
a dynamic model based on the so-called structural approach, where defaults are
triggered by the exit of some stochastic process from a domain. In the case
considered, this is
a process defined by the evolution of bank's portfolios values. At the exit time,
a bank defaults and a cascade of defaults starts. The authors believe that the
distribution of the exit time and the subsequent losses may serve as indicators
allowing regulators to monitor the state of the system and take corrective actions
in order to avoid contagion in a financial system. The authors model the development
of a financial system as a random graph using the preferable attachment algorithm and
provide results of numerical experiments on simulated data.
Keywords:
systemic risk; contagion; scale free network; default.
