The Balance Sheet Approach


Focus of Analysis
 Stocks of assets and liabilities
 System of interlinked sectoral balance sheets
Main Applications at the IMF
 Surveillance work
 Crisis management
 Design of IMF-supported programs
 Financial stability analysis
 Vulnerability analysis
3
The Balance Sheet Approach:
Analysis of Key Mismatches



Maturity mismatches
 Rollover risk
 Interest rate risk
Currency mismatches
 Exchange rate risk
Capital structure mismatches
 Debt rather than equity risks
 Mismatches can lead to:
 Liquidity problems
 Solvency problems
 Spillover effects

Balance Sheet Approach: Key
Indicators of a Sector’s Vulnerability



Net financial position:
financial assets – financial liabilities
Net foreign currency position:
foreign currency assets – foreign currency liabilities
Net short-term position:
short-term assets – short-term liabilities

Data at Hand








IMF Monetary and Financial Statistics (MFS):
Standardized Report Forms (SRFs)
BIS International Banking Statistics
IMF Balance of Payments and International
Investment Position (BOP/IIP)
World Bank/IMF Quarterly External Debt Statistics
(QEDS)
BIS/IMF/OECD/World Bank Joint External Debt
Hub (JEDH)

Data Gaps



Timeliness (reporting/disseminating lags)
Frequency (low periodicity of data)
Coverage
 Country coverage
 Off-balance sheet positions and special purpose
vehicles (ultimate risk)
 Shadow financial system
 Exposures to complex structured products (credit
risk transfer)
 Cross-border counterparty exposures
 Definition/coverage of government sector
 Nonfinancial corporate and households sectors
 Remaining maturity of outstanding liabilities
 Nonfinancial assets (housing-related data)
8
New Initiatives (1)

Addressing data gaps:
 Establishment of the Inter-Agency Group on
Economic and Financial Statistics, IAG (2008)
 BIS, ECB, Eurostat, IMF (Chair), OECD, UN, WB
 Coordinate work to explore data gaps and strengthen
data collection
 G-20 Working Group on Reinforcing International
Cooperation and Promoting Integrity in Financial Markets
 Asked the IMF and the Financial Stability Board (FSB)
to explore gaps and provide proposals to address them
to the next meeting of G-20 Finance Ministers and
Central Bank Governors (late 2009)
 IMFC (IMF Governing Body) welcomed the work of the
IMF and FSB to provide better indicators of systemic risks
and address data gaps
9
New Initiatives (2)

Improving communication of official statistics
 IAG launched common public online website
(April 2009): the Principal Global
Indicators which displays for G-20
economies:
 Predetermined tables of statistics
 Cross-country datasets
 Links to national websites of central banks,
regulatory agencies, and statistical offices
 Links to the SDDS National Summary page
 Links to websites of the IAG agencies
10
New Initiatives (3)

Initiatives at the IMF
 Further implementation of SRFs to enhance the BSA
 Regular compilation and dissemination of Financial
Soundness Indicators, a complement to the BSA in
enhancing vulnerability and financial stability analysis
 Development of a conceptual framework for the
compilation and presentation of debt securities (issuance
and holdings) with the BIS, ECB, and the WB (Working
Group on Securities Databases)
 Promotion of high-frequency (quarterly) general
government sector data on a harmonized basis
 Development of Public Sector Debt Guide for the
collection and dissemination of public sector debt
statistics.
 Coordinated Direct Investment Survey (direct investment
positions with equity reported separately from debt
11
investment)
Concluding Remarks:
Challenges Ahead

Five key areas:
 Sectoral balance sheet data
 Improving availability, timeliness, frequency, and
coverage of assets and liabilities
 Public sector
 Accounting for government intervention in response to
the crisis (including contingent liabilities)
 Ultimate risk and credit risk transfer
 Capturing assets and liabilities of special purpose
entities and off-balance sheet positions
 Housing markets
 Improving availability of housing-related data and
making data cross-country comparable
 Macroprudential risks
 Improving indicators of financial soundness, including
measures of leverage and liquidity.
