Bank Funding Costs and Capital Structure

Abstract: If bail-in is credible, risk premia on bank securities should decrease as funding sources junior to and alongside them in the creditor hierarchy increase. Other things equal, we find that when banks have more equity and less subordinated debt they have lower risk premia on both.

“…By leveraging advanced technologies infrastructure, robust data analytics capacities, and a well-established regulatory framework, banks in the UK are well-positioned to harness the power of information resources in shaping their capital structure decisions. Through efficient risk assessment, enhanced decision-making processes, and the utilization of timely and accurate financial information, banks can strive for an optimal mix of debt and equity financing that aligns with their risk appetite, business objectives, and regulatory requirements (Gimber and Rajan, 2019). Furthermore, the effective management of information resources enables banks to adapt to dynamic market conditions, anticipate emerging risks, and make proactive adjustments to their capital structure to maintain financial stability and competitiveness in the UK banking sector.…”
