As a result, the CISS puts relatively more weight on situations in which stress prevails in several market segments at the same time, capturing the idea that financial stress is more systemic and thus more dangerous for the economy as a whole if financial instability spreads more widely across the whole financial system. Applied to euro area data, we determine within a threshold VAR model a systemic crisis-level of the CISS at which financial stress tends to depress real economic activity.

Academics and financial authorities all around the globe accordingly have been stepping up their efforts to improve the suit of tools...

The network is composed of economists from the European System of Central Banks (ESCB), i.e. the 27 national central banks of the European Union (EU) and the European Central Bank. The objective of MaRs is to develop core conceptual frameworks, models and/or tools supporting macroprudential supervision in the EU.The research is carried out in three work streams: 1) Macro-financial models linking financial stability and the performance of the economy; 2) Early warning systems and systemic risk indicators; 3) Assessing contagion risks.MaRs is chaired by Philipp Hartmann (ECB). Paolo Angelini (Banca d'Italia), Laurent Clerc (Banque de France), Carsten Detken (ECB) and Katerina Šmídková (Czech National Bank) are workstream coordinators. Xavier Freixas (Universitat Pompeu Fabra) acts as external consultant and Angela Maddaloni (ECB) as Secretary.The refereeing process of this paper has been coordinated by a team composed of Cornelia Holthausen, Kalin Nikolov and Bernd Schwaab (all ECB).The paper is released in order to make the research of MaRs generally available, in preliminary form, to encourage comments and suggestions prior to final publication.

We integrate systemic …nancial instability in an empirical macroeconomic model for the euro area. We …nd that at times of widespread …nancial instability the macroeconomy functions fundamentally di¤erently from tranquil times. We employ a richly speci…ed MarkovSwitching Vector Autoregression model to capture the dynamic relationships between a set of core macroeconomic variables and a novel indicator of systemic …nancial stress. Both the parameters that capture the transmission of shocks through the economy and the variances of the shocks change at times of high stress in the …nancial system. In particular, the negative output e¤ects of sizeable increases in …nancial stress are much larger after such a regime Terms of use: Documents in EconStor may
