Working papers Dr. Narly Dwarkasing Msc, Mphil:

 

"Monetary conditions and bank loan risk taking: Evidence from the North and South Wales Bank, 1881-1894" [Paper]

 I investigate the effects of the monetary rate, the interest rate set by the Central Bank, on bank risk taking by examining a sample of loan contracts secured by shares and extended by the North and South Wales Bank between 1881 and 1894. Collateralization by shares allows me to construct a measure of ex ante risk taking for each loan: the collateral value to loan amount ratio. Exploiting the fact that Britain was on the Gold Standard at that period in time allows me to address possible endogeneity issues. I use the number of gold rushes in a year as an instrumental variable for the monetary rate, by arguing that an unexpected windfall in the gold supply serves as an exogenous shock to the money supply, translating to a cut in the monetary rate. Results are consistent with theories indicating that low Central Bank interest rates can induce bank loan risk taking in the search for yields, as I find that collateral value to loan ratios are lowered following a cut in the monetary rate. I also find that low monetary rates corresponded with, on average, lower loan prices.

 

"From Competition to Cartel: Bank Mergers in the U.K. 1885 to 1925", joint with Fabio Braggion and Lyndon Moore [to be submitted to the Journal of Finance]

We study the effects of bank mergers and acquisitions in het U.K from 1885 to 1925. The lack of a regulatory authority and the confidential nature of merger negotiations allows us to precisely measure the wealth effects of M&As in a laissez-faire environment. We find positive wealth effects for bidders (0.7%-1%) and targets (6.7%-8%) over the announcement month. When takeovers took place in a competitive environment wealth creation appears to be related to efficiency gains. As competition decreased, gains to shareholders appear to be related to increased oligopoly power. In a less competitve environment, banks tended to reduce the amount of loans and increase their holdings of safe marketable securities. Banks with higher charter value displayed higher capital ratios.
