En savoir plusAbstract:We study how banks’ resolution regimes affect investment. Banking groups create financing synergies by transferring excess financing capacity across units and lowering bankers’ agency rents from monitoring. Single-point-ofentry (SPOE) resolution preserves groups’ structure, which permits ex post efficient reinvestment into weaker units hit by negative shocks, but can prevent optimal investment ex ante. Multiple-point-of-entry (MPOE)…
