Remarks before the Market News International Seminar, New York, N.Y., June 6, 2011 ; "Postcrisis, the large institutions are even larger: The top 10 now account for 64 percent of assets, up from 58 percent before the crisis and substantially higher than the 25 percent they accounted for in 1990.

Introduction to a Series on Market Liquidity: Part 2
Adrian, Tobias; Schaumburg, Ernst; Fleming, Michael J. (2015-10-05)

The optimal policy requires, in general, a mix of ex-post intervention and ex-ante prudential policy. We also analyze the effects of bailouts on financial stability and welfare in the absence of ...

Working Paper
A primer on market discipline and governance of financial institutions for those in a state of shocked disbelief
Mester, Loretta J.; Hughes, Joseph P. (2012)
Self regulation encouraged by market discipline constitutes a key component of Basel II?s third pillar. But high-risk investment strategies may maximize the expected value of some banks. In these cases, does market discipline encourage risk-taking that undermines bank stability in economic downturns? This paper reviews the literature on corporate control in banking. It reviews the techniques for assessing bank performance, interaction between regulation and the federal safety net with market discipline on risk-taking incentives and stability, and sources of market discipline, including ...
