3 2 Risky Sadow Bank Deb In is secion, we consider an exension of e baseline model in wic bankers can issue ouside equiy up o ε proporion of eir banks ousanding equiy. For sadow banks, is implies a invesors of a sadow bank are willing o bear ε proporion of asse losses a occur o e sadow bank. Le R e denoe e reurn of ouside equiy and r s e reurn of sadow bank deb. A banker s dynamic budge consrain is dw = W R + ε W R R e + S R r τ + S R r s d ε W + W π c d ε ε + S + D S x q dn. Te regular bank raise εw /ε ouside equiy. If a Poisson sock is e economy, e banker only bears ε proporion of e loss o e regular bank. Wi respec o sadow banking, e regular bank exends implici guaranees a cover ε proporion of e loss o e sadow bank. Le E denoe a ouseold s olding of a regular bank s ouside equiy and O is olding of sadow bank deb. Te dynamic budge consrain for a ouseold is dw = W r + S R r + E R e r + O r s r c S + E + εs + εo x q dn, were s is e raio of regular bank deb o inside bank equiy. If a ouseold conribues dollar as ouside equiy, banker will mac ε / ε dollar as inside equiy. Taking leverage ino accoun, dollar conribuion of ouside equiy raises e size of a regular bank by +εs / ε. Te risk exposure of dollar ouside equiy is + εs x q d if a Poisson sock is e economy. Houseolds will ake {r, R, R e, r s, } as given and coose {S, E, O } o maximize eir expeced life-ime uiliy. Firs-order condiions wi respec o E and O are R e r = λ + εs x q, r s r = λ εx q. If we plug in e expressions of R e and r s back o a banker s dynamic budge consrain, en we derive e dynamic budge consrain lised in BSB. Nex, we derive e opimaliy condiions of bankers. Given e dynamic budge consrain 3

4 lised in BSB, firs order condiions are R r τ ελx q R r ελx q ελx q + εs + s, wi equaliy if s > xq ελx q + εs + s, wi equaliy if s > xq Since ouseolds are risk-neural and bankers are risk-averse, bankers are willing o ake iger leverage if ey can sare aggregae risks wi ouseolds. Te counerpar of e enforcemen consrain 5 in e case is s R r τ + s R r εs + s λx q + λ ln + εs + s x q + λĥ s R r τ + s R r ε s + s λx q + λ ln + ε s x q + λĥd. We can simplify e enforcemen consrain and derive e maximum leverage of sadow banking lised in BSB by following an argumen a is similar o a in e Secion 2..4 in BSB. Te procedure of solving for e equilibrium of is varian is e same as i is for e baseline model in BSB. Deailed discussion of key properies of is varian is conained in BSB as well. 3 Houseolds wi Epsein-Zin Preference In is secion, we consider a varian of e baseline model were ouseolds ave Epsein-Zin preferences wi e ime discoun rae, e relaive risk-aversion coefficien γ, and e elasiciy of ineremporal subsiuion b. were and In e modified model, e ouseold cooses {c, S, n, } o maximize [ U = E f c s, Us f { c, U = c b b γ U γ b γ U s = E s [ subjec o e dynamic budge consrain 6 in BSB. s ds ], γ U } f ] c v, Uv dv, for s >, 4

5 In solving for e equilibrium of e modified model, we need o caracerize e opimal consumpion and porfolio coices of ouseolds. To do so, we conjecure a e coninuaion value of a ouseold wi ne wor W as e following funcional form V = V ζ, W ζ W γ, γ were ζ follows dζ = ζ µ ζ d ζ ˆζ dn. ζ is inerpreed as e coninuaion value muliplier of a ouseold s ne wor as e funcion V ζ, W is omogeneous of degree γ wi respec o W. Given our conjecure, e Hamilon- Jacobi-Bellman equaion of e ouseold s dynamic programming problem is were D c,s V ζ, W = W r + S { = max f c c,s, V + D c,s V ζ, W }, R r c ζ γ W γ + µ ζ ζ W γ ˆζ W + λ S x q γ γ We summarize e key resuls of e problem in e following proposiion. ζ W γ Proposiion Eac ouseold s opimal consumpion weig { c, }, opimal porfolio weig { s, n, }, and e process {ζ, } saisfy γ. c b = ζ b, 2 R r λx q γ ˆζ s x q γ, wi equaliy if s >, 3 ζ = c b bζ b b + r + s ˆζ s R r c + µ ζ x q γ + λ γ γ 4 were c = c / W and s = S / W. Tere are a few marke clearing condiions in e modified model a are differen from ose in e baseline model. Firs, e risk-free rae is no consan, wic insead is joinly deermined 5

6 by e opimal porfolio coices of bo bankers and ouseolds equaion 3 and e dynamics of e coninuaion value muliplier {ζ, } equaion 4. Second, e consumpion good marke does no clear auomaically in e modified model since ouseolds are risk-averse. Given ouseolds opimal consumpion coice condiion 2, we ave e marke clearing condiion for e consumpion goods aψ + a ψ gι = ω + b b ζ b ω q. As in BSB, we focus on e Markov equilibrium of e modified model were sadow banking exiss. Te coice of parameer values is a = 4%, γ = 2, b =.5, χ =., a =.225, a =., δ = %, φ = 3, λ =, x = 4%, τ =.2%, and ξ = 5%. Figures 3 and 4 in Secion 6 sow a resuls found in e baseline model survive in e modified model. In wa follows, we sudy e welfare implicaion of bank regulaion of e modified model. As in BSB, we suppose a e amoun of pysical capial in period equals one and ere are a represenaive banker and a represenaive ouseold in e economy. Te welfare pair of e represenaive ouseold and banker is ζ ω q γ γ, lnω q +, were ζ is e coninuaion muliplier of e represenaion ouseold in period. Differen from e baseline model, e equilibrium risk-free rae in e modified model depends on e credi demand and supply. If e regulaory auoriy sars regulaing regular banking and sadow banking is sill unsusainable, e decrease in e banker s credi demand lowers e risk-free rae Panel d in Figure 5, wic urs e ouseold Panel b in Figure 5. Naurally, e banker s welfare improves because of e low volailiy of er weal and e low borrowing cos. Overall, imposing ax on regular banking sill improves e sum of wo represenaive agens welfare wen sadow banking does no emerge Panel c in Figure 5. Wen sadow banking is susainable, igening bank regulaion sars o improve e ouseold s welfare. Tere are wo underlying forces. Firs, e increased credi demand from sadow banks puses up e risk-free rae, wic benefis e ouseold. Panel d in Figure 5 sows a is effec is so large a e average risk-free rae in an economy wi a posiive ax rae could be iger an i is in an economy wiou any ax. Te underlying inuiion is a if e banker as o pay a ig ax rae for regular banking er willingness o pay a relaively ig ineres rae for sadow banking mus be ig as well. 6

7 Te second force is a as e sadow banking secor expands e banker olds more fracion of capial goods in e economy and us e ouseold s exposure o e aggregae risk declines. Panel d in Figure 6 indicaes a e volailiy of e ouseold s weal declines as e ax rae increases unil i is 4%. Overall, if we consider e sum of e wo agen s welfare, we observe a srengening bank regulaion can raise e oal welfare of e economy. Nevereless, wen regulaion is oo ig, igening regulaion makes social welfare worse off. Tis is primarily e consequence of e increased financial insabiliy a e expansion of e sadow banking secor causes. In summary, is secion igligs novel cannels, roug wic igening regulaion of regular banking improves e ouseold s welfare. In paricular, srengening bank regulaion elps e sadow banking secor expand, and e consequenial increase in credi demand raises e reurn for e ouseold o supply funds and lowers e ouseold s exposure o e aggregae risk. 4 Quaniy Conrol In is secion, we invesigae a varian of e baseline model in BSB, in wic e regular banking secor is subjec o a quaniy conrol. In paricular, we consider e capial-requiremen consrain, wic imposes an upper bound s for a regular bank s deb-o-equiy raio. Wi e price conrol replaced by e quaniy conrol, a banker s dynamic budge consrain becomes dw = W R + S + S R r c d W + S + S x q dn. In addiion o e leverage consrain for sadow banking 4, e banker in e modified model faces e capial-requiremen consrain S sw. Similar canges apply o bankers wo canno access sadow banking due o defaul. We firs focus on e dynamics of endogenous variables and en move o e regulaory smile resul of e quaniy-conrol model. A number of endogenous variables ave dynamics similar o e baseline model Panels a-e in Figure 7. However, e leverage dynamics of sadow banking cange drasically. Tis is e consequence of e fac a wen bankers sare of weal is small e excess reurn is ig and e incenives o build up leverage are srong. In ese saes, i is exremely cosly o defaul on sadow bank deb because regular banking only allows for considerably low leverage. Terefore, wen bankers sare of weal is small, e enforcemen problem is no severe and e leverage of sadow banking is ig. Tis propery is absen in e 7

8 baseline model because bankers do no face a binding leverage consrain for regular banking. Te counerfacual resul of sadow banking being couner-cyclical is primarily e consequence of e simplificaion a bankers also play e role of producers. In our model, wen e capial misallocaion is already severe in recessions, e ime-invarian capial raio requiremens acually prevens more producive agens from raising exernal credi, wic is apparenly unwise and in e opposie of improving social welfare. In realiy, wa we ofen observe is a governmens uilize all possible policy insrumens in downurns o encourage banks credi supply o e real secor. Figure 8 sows a e regulaory smile resul coninues o old in e modified model wi quaniy conrol. Very lenien bank regulaion comes wi e low leverage of sadow banking and ig financial insabiliy. As bank regulaion igens i.e., e maximum leverage of regular banking s declines, financial insabiliy iniially diminises. However, if e regulaion is so ig a e sadow banking secor becomes sizeable, iger regulaion causes iger financial insabiliy. 5 Proofs Proof of Lemma 2 in BSB. Now suppose a ime, e banker s weal W is negaive. Te law of moion for e banker s weal is dw = W R + S R r + S R r c d W x q + S x q + S x q dn Given a fixed ime T, we can consruc a new measure under wic R s r s = λ x q s for eac ime s beween and T. Under is new measure, T T Ẽ [W T exp r u du + c s exp s ] r u du ds W < Suppose e banker reires a e sopping ime S wi posiive weal W S. Afer e banker reires, er weal evolves as dw S+u = W S+u r S+u du. 8

9 S+s Her weal in period S + s is W S exp S r u du s. I is easy o see a [ lim E S exp s S+s S ] r u du W S+s =. Tus, if T is large enoug, E [W T exp ] T r u du could be arbirarily small. Since W <, e consumpion of e banker mus be negaive a some poin beween and T wi a sricly posiive probabiliy. Since e banker as logarim preference, e banker s expeced lifeime discouned uiliy a ime mus be negaive infiniy. Terefore, we sow a i is never opimal for e banker o ave negaive weal and a a banker s overall leverage mus ave an upper bound. Proof of Proposiion in BSB. Wiou loss of generaliy, we focus on a banker wi weal W in period and explicily express er coninuaion value in differen cases. We sar wi e case a e banker is reired. Since logarimic agens only consumer fracion of eir weal, e grow rae of er weal is r +v in period +v. Hence, e banker s weal in period + u will be W exp u r +v dv. Te banker s coninuaion value a ime is exp u ln W + = ln W ln + + = ln W ln + + wic is denoed by ln W / + r. u exp u r +v dv du u r +v dv du exp v r +v dv, We use e same idea o express e coninuaion value of a banker wo can access sadow banking. Given e banker s opimal porfolio coices s +u, s +u, if se does no reire in period + u, er weal in period + u, W +u is W +u W exp Since E [N +d N ] = λd, we rewrie W +u u R+v + s +v R +v r +v + s +v R +v r +v dv + u ln + s +v + s +v x q. +v dn+v u W +u = W exp G +v dv, were G +v R +v + s +v R +v r +v + s +v R +v r +v λ ln + s +v + s +v x q +v. 9

10 Le + T denoe e sopping ime a e banker reires. Her coninuaion value a ime is E [ T =E [ T =E [ T = lnw = lnw = ln W exp u lnw + u exp u lnw + ln + lnw+t G +v dv du + exp T u exp u lnw + ln + G +u + E [ T + E [ + ln + χ + E G +v dv du + exp T lnw du + exp T exp u ln + G +u du + exp T r +T T χ exp χt [ exp u exp + χu G+u + r +T ] lnw + ] + r +T ] T ln + G +u du + exp T r +T ] + χ r +u du G +v dv + r +T ] dt wic we denoe as ln W / +. We ave used inegraion by pars muliple imes in e above derivaion. Finally, we consider e case a e banker wo canno use sadow banking bu obain suc opporuniy a inensiy ξ. Le s denoe er opimal porfolio coice, wic saisfies ] R r τ = λx q + s x q, 5 and T ξ e sopping wen e banker obain e access o sadow banking. Her coninuaion value a ime is mint,tξ exp u ln W + u R +v + s +v R +v r +v τ +v + s +v τ +v dv du E + mint,t ξ exp u u ln + s +v x q +v dn+v du ln W +Tξ + exp T ξ + mintξ,t=t ξ + exp T lnw+t + r +T mintξ,t=t T u =E exp u ln W + G +v du + exp T ln Ŵ+T + r +T [ mint,tξ u E exp u s +vτ +v dv du + exp min T, T ξ ] mint,tξ s +vτ +v dv = ln W / + H,

11 were s +v τ +v is e ax rebae o eac banker in e economy and Ŵ +T W exp u R+v + s +v R +v r +v + s +v R +v r +v dv + u ln + s +v + s +v x q. +v dn+v Te firs equaion comes from e condiion a s + s = s. Nex, we verify a is condiion always olds. If s >, e firs-order equaion 3 in BSB and equaion 5 implies s + s = s. If s =, en τ = and e firs-order equaion 4 in BSB and equaion 5 also give rise o s + s = s. [ mint,tξ u H = E exp u s +vτ +v dv du + exp min T, T ξ [ = E exp + χ + ξ u τ ] +u s +udu mint,tξ s +vτ +v dv ] Proof of Teorem in BSB. We will apply e conracion mapping eorem o sow e uniqueness of e soluion H ω =. Firs, we define a complee meric space. Since e sae variable ω is beween and ω, we focus on e space B, ω] of bounded coninuous funcions :, ω] R under sup norm. Teorem 3. in Sokey e al. 989 implies a B, ω] is a complee meric space. We will use Blackwell s sufficien condiions o sow Γ is a conracion mapping. Suppose bo, B, ω] and ω ω, for all ω, ω], since s ω = λhˆω Rω r τω, all porfolio coices permied under are feasible under. Hence, Γ Γ, for all ω, ω]. Nex, we need o sow a ere exiss a posiive consan β < suc a Γ + v Γ + βv, for all B, ω], v, ω, ω]. Consider Γ + v [ω] = E [ exp + ξ + χ u min{τ, τs u} ] s udu ω = ω, were s ω λˆω Rω r τω,

12 and s, s are porfolio weigs of a banker in e equilibrium of a ypoeical economy wi exogenous. Since e lower bound of is zero, en s ω = = = λˆω + v Rω r τω = λˆω Rω r τω + λv Rω r τω λˆω Rω r τω + v + sω + s ωx q ω x q ω λˆω Rω r τω + v x q ω + sω + s ω λˆω Rω r τω + v x Wi e assisance of above inequaliy, we derive a Γ + v [ω] Γ[ω] + E [ Γ[ω] + τ + ξ + χ x v.
