Abstract

A bank’s decision on loan supply and capital structure determines the future availability of internal funds, and hence its future costs of external finance and vulnerability to risks. This paper sets out to understand these intertemporal links and the influence of bank regulation on the dynamics of loan supply and bank stability. Our model builds on two assumptions, credit risk and financial frictions. Together they create a trade-off between bank stability and efficiency of loan supply, both intratemporal and intertemporal. We study this model to analyze the effects of a risk-weighted capital-to-asset ratio, counter-cyclical capital buffer, liquidity coverage ratio as well as a regulatory margin call. When risks are not observable by supervisors, only regulatory margin calls or liquidity coverage ratios achieve bank stability for all risks. However, for banks with large risks, both instruments will stop credit intermediation.
