Conclusion; Appendix; ReferencesWe study a simple general equilibrium model in which investment in a risky technology is subject to moral hazard and banks can extract market power rents. We show that more bank competition results in lower economy-wide risk, lower bank capital ratios, more efficient production plans and Pareto-ranked real allocations. Perfect competition supports a second best allocation and optimal levels of bank risk and capitalization. These results are at variance with those obtained by a large literature that has studied a similar environment in partial equilibrium. Importantly, they are empirically relevant, and demonstrate the need of general equilibrium modeling to design financial policies aimed at attaining socially optimal levels of systemic risk in the economy.IMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;No. 2009/105Intermediation (Finance)CompetitionBankingimfBanks and BankingimfBanks and bankingimfBanksimfCompetitionimfComputable and Other Applied General Equilibrium ModelsimfDepository InstitutionsimfEconometric modelsimfEconometrics & economic statisticsimfEconometricsimfFinanceimfFinance: GeneralimfFinancial risk managementimfGeneral equilibrium modelsimfGeneral Financial Markets: General (includes Measurement and Data)imfGeneral Financial Markets: Government Policy and RegulationimfIncome economicsimfLabor DemandimfLaborimfLabourimfMicro Finance InstitutionsimfMoral hazardimfMortgagesimfSelf-employedimfSelf-employmentimfIntermediation (Finance)Competition.BankingBanks and BankingBanks and bankingBanksCompetitionComputable and Other Applied General Equilibrium ModelsDepository InstitutionsEconometric modelsEconometrics & economic statisticsEconometricsFinanceFinance: GeneralFinancial risk managementGeneral equilibrium modelsGeneral Financial Markets: General (includes Measurement and Data)General Financial Markets: Government Policy and RegulationIncome economicsLabor DemandLaborLabourMicro Finance InstitutionsMoral hazardMortgagesSelf-employedSelf-employment332.152De Nicolo Gianni375199Lucchetta Marcella1815769DcWaIMFBOOK9910969849403321Financial Intermediation, Competition, and Risk4371272UNINA
