Team,
After reviewing the latest research output from the Federal Reserve districts, it is clear that the available data set for this window is exceptionally thin, with the vast majority of entries being empty placeholders or directory listings. However, there is one critical piece of structural analysis that warrants our attention.
1. [NY] Bank Failures: The Roles of Solvency and Liquidity
This paper dissects the causal drivers of bank failures, specifically distinguishing between liquidity-driven runs and fundamental insolvency. For our portfolio, this is vital for assessing systemic risk; if current market stress is liquidity-based, Fed intervention (discount window/BTFP-style tools) will be effective, but if it is solvency-based, we should expect deeper credit contractions and more aggressive write-downs.
Note: The remaining publications provided in the monitoring window ([DAL] and [STL] entries) contained no substantive data or titles and have been excluded from this analysis.
Synthesis: The current research cycle is heavily skewed toward the New York Fed’s focus on financial stability and the mechanics of banking crises. We should remain vigilant regarding the solvency of mid-tier lenders, as the Fed is clearly refining its framework for distinguishing between "run-able" banks and "broken" banks.
The paper examines the primary drivers of bank failures, arguing that insolvency is typically the root cause rather than liquidity runs. It suggests that while bank runs accelerate failure, they are often symptoms of underlying insolvency.
Do banks fail because of runs or because they become insolvent? Answering this question is central to understanding financial crises and designing effective financial stability policies. Long-run historical evidence reveals that the root cause of bank failures is usually insolvency. The importance of bank runs is somewhat overstated. Runs matter, but in most cases they trigger or accelerate failure at already weak banks, rather than cause otherwise sound banks to fail.
