Market development
 High demand for dollar liquidity in Europe resulted in:
– rise of shortest money-market rates
– thereby to measures by central banks, such as the Eurosystem.
 Uncertainty and lack of confidence among banks
resulted in:
– friction in the financial markets
– price differential between money with collateral and without
collateral
– drying up of market finance and
– capital flows into lower-risk investments.
SUOMEN PANKKI | FINLANDS BANK | BANK OF FINLAND
14
What lies behind the turbulence?
 The turbulece was triggered by an alarming increase of
defaults in housing loans granted to households with low
creditworthiness in the US
– These so-called subprime mortgage loans account for about
15% of the US housing loan stock
– Extensive spreading of the problems in the financial system is
explained by two factors:
1. Active innovation of new financial instruments
2. Prolonged exceptionally favourable credit conditions
SUOMEN PANKKI | FINLANDS BANK | BANK OF FINLAND
15
Innovation of financial instruments in the 21st century
focused on redistribution of credit risks

Development of securitisation techniques and credit derivatives
have enabled more effective diversification of credit risks outside
the financial sector, which is positive

Risks have also been observed in the developments:
–
–
–
–
Complexity of pricing models and low availability of historical data used
as valuation background
Allocation of credit risks to parties with less understanding of them
Backtracking of credit risks ultimately to banks due to market linkages
Neglect in the monitoring of banks’ borrowing customers after risks
have been transferred to other parties
SUOMEN PANKKI | FINLANDS BANK | BANK OF FINLAND
16
Example of securitisation: Collateralised Debt
Obligations (CDO)
A bank bundles a
large number of
different assets and
sells them to a special
purpose vehicle (SPV)
Law of large numbers: Although there are assets with low credit ratings in
the collateral pool, a debt security granting a senior privilege to the cash
flows generated by a large portfolio may receive a high credit rating..
Certain structures include arrangements ensuring the
solvency of the SPV, such as guarantees, credit limits etc.
The SPV finances the
purchase of the
aseets by issuing
bonds collateralised
with the assets
The bonds are given
different privileges to the
cash flows generated by
the collateral assets;
bonds of different
tranches have different
credit ratings

Spread of the turbulence into a global liquidity
crisis
 In early 2007, information released of a steep increase in
defaults on the US subprime mortgage market
 Credit ratings of subprime-linked assets were lowered
from June-July onwards
 Suspicion of potential large losses
 Diversification of credit risks has decreased
transparancy of the markets  it is unknown how large
the risks are and to whom ultimately belong
 Lack of confidence and liquidity squeeze
SUOMEN PANKKI | FINLANDS BANK | BANK OF FINLAND
18
Why the uncertainty over banks’ risks? (1)
 Valuation of all subprime-linked assets is very difficult
due to strong market fluctuation
– Pricing models have failed and trading on the markets has dried
up
 Backtracking of risks transferred away from banks’
balance sheets due to credit limits granted to SPVs
– Certain types of SPVs financed with very short-term money
(asset-backed commercial paper, ABCP)  investor
retrenchment reflected rapidly as problems
– Banks have been forced to patch up the finance dried up from
the markets
SUOMEN PANKKI | FINLANDS BANK | BANK OF FINLAND
19
Why the uncertainty over banks’ risks? (2)
 Linkages of banks and hedge funds
– Hedge funds have purchased significant exposures in credit
risks previously concentrated on the banking sector
– On the other hand, banks function as the main financiers of
hedge funds  ultimately the risks are still borne by banks?
 Financing of venture capitalists
– Banks finance venture capitalists with a large sum and resell
financing interests to other investors only with a lag
– When market conditions change significantly, resale of the
financing interests becomes much more difficult
SUOMEN PANKKI | FINLANDS BANK | BANK OF FINLAND
20
Impact on EU banking sector
 Direct losses from the US subprime mortgage markets
are limited
 Lack of confidence and liquidity squeeze are a significant
problem – a great deal depends on the duration of the
exceptional circumstances
 Subprime risks of Finnish banks are very limited
SUOMEN PANKKI | FINLANDS BANK | BANK OF FINLAND
21
Too soon to assess quantitative impacts of the
turbulence on real economy
 However, there is no doubt as to the +/- sign of the impacts
 The impacts depend on the duration, extent and depth of
the shock
– … and economic policy reactions.
 Impacts surface through many channels
–
–
–
–
Financing conditions generally tighter → investmets
Asset prices globally lower → consumption
Exchange rate changes → foreign trade
Weakened confidence has wide-reaching consequences
 In the long term, normalisation of the pricing of risks is a a
good thing also from the viewpoint of sustainable economic
growth
SUOMEN PANKKI | FINLANDS BANK | BANK OF FINLAND
22
Conclusion
 Long-expected correction in the pricing of risks, partly
welcome
 Reveals excessive risks and deficiencies in risk
management, but losses are likely to remain limited 
shock tolerance of the new type of financial system is put
to the test
 Banks’ risk-bearing capacity is solid in a historical
perspective (prolonged high profitability)
 The key issue is restoration of confidence in the markets
 increase of transparency
