Abstract

As risks build up, systemic events could materialize very rapidly. The speed at which a financial crisis spreads depends on the degree of interconnectedness of financial institutions, within and across countries. This interconnectedness may be attributable to specific interinstitutional exposures, such as interbank loans and deposits and repo transactions, or to exposures to aggregate risk, such as investor confidence and real economic and financial cycles. Thus, it is important to try and gauge the extent of potential spillovers well in advance of an actual stress event.
