Abstract

Anat Admati and Martin Hellwig identify the key problems in banking as excessive borrowing and risk-taking, increased interconnectedness between banks, ineffective regulation and supervision, distortions and inefficiencies from explicit or implicit government guarantees and subsidies, and banks' governance problems. The authors propose a simple solution: raising the bank equity requirement to 20-30 percent of total assets. They argue that this solution would significantly reduce the fragility of banks. Finally, the authors also highlight the importance of political will as an essential element for meaningful financial reform.

Özet

Anat Admati and Martin Hellwig bankacılıkla ilgili başlıca sorunları şu şeklide belirlemektedir: aşırı borçlanma ve risk alma, bankalar arasında karşılıklı bağımlılıkların artması, etkin olmayan düzenleme ve gözetim, hükümetler tarafından verilen açık veya zımnî garantiler ve sübvansiyonlar, bankaların yönetişim sorunları. Yazarlar bankaların sermaye yeterliliklerini toplam varlıkların yüzde 20-30'u düzeylerine yükseltecek basit bir çözüm önermektedir. Yazarlar bu çözümün bankaların kırılganlığını belirgin şekilde azaltacağını savunmaktadır. Son olarak, yazarlar anlamlı bir finansal reform için politik kararlılığın önemine dikkat çekmektedir.
