Resilience of Community Banks in the Time of COVID-19

Stress tests in December 2020 showed that the largest U.S. banks had strong capital levels and could continue to lend to households and businesses under hypothetical severe recessions. Assessing thousands of small community banks against similar criteria suggests that, while about one-fifth could fall below adequate capitalization, only a handful of those risk becoming insolvent. Overall, this is a reassuring view for small banks and their communities, suggesting that the risk of widespread bank failures leading to financial instability appears to be small.

Upstreamfirms under-invest in capacity and resilience, passing-on the costs to downstreamfirms, and drive trade excessively towards the spot markets. There isa wedge between the market solution and a constrained optimal benchmark,which persists even without rare and large shocks. Policies designed to incentivize ...

How Much Did the CARES Act Help Households Stay Afloat?

Data suggest that the aid increased household resilience by 15 weeks, chiefly through enhanced unemployment insurance benefits. Among racial groups, this benefited Black and Hispanic households the most, raising median ...

Risk and Resilience: How Weather-Related Disasters Impact Economically Marginalized Communities

Our team surveyed and interviewed professionals in the Southeast that work with or whose work impacts these marginalized communities across core issue areas relevant to community development, resilience, and disaster risk management in the nonprofit, public, and private sectors.
