--- _id: '13147' abstract: - lang: eng text: Employing a unique and hand-collected sample of 648 true sale loan securitization transactions issued by 57 stock-listed banks across the EU-12 plus Switzerland over the period from 1997 to 2010, this paper empirically analyzes the relationship between true sale loan securitization and the issuing banks’ non-performing loans to total assets ratios. Overall, we provide evidence for a negative impact of securitization on NPL exposures suggesting that banks predominantly used securitization as an instrument of credit risk transfer and diversification. In addition, the analysis at hand reveals a time-sensitive relationship between securitization and NPL exposures. While we observe an even stronger NPL-reducing effect through securitization during the non-crisis periods, the effect reverses during and after the global financial crisis suggesting that banks were forced to provide credit enhancement and employ securitization as a funding management tool. Along with the results from a variety of sensitivity analyses our study provides important implications for the recent debate on reducing NPL exposures of European banks by revitalizing the European securitization market. article_type: original author: - first_name: Sascha Tobias full_name: Wengerek, Sascha Tobias id: '48837' last_name: Wengerek orcid: 0000-0002-7820-3903 - first_name: Benjamin full_name: Hippert, Benjamin id: '48476' last_name: Hippert - first_name: André full_name: Uhde, André id: '36049' last_name: Uhde orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8058-8857 citation: ama: Wengerek ST, Hippert B, Uhde A.

In addition, we find that these determinants remarkably change when separately investigating securitization transactions during the pre-crisis and crisis period. Moreover, results from several subsample regressions reveal that determinants of loan securitizations in Europe depend on the transaction type, the underlying asset portfolio and the regulatory and institutional environment under which banks operate. author: - first_name: Christian full_name: Farruggio, Christian last_name: Farruggio - first_name: André full_name: Uhde, André id: '36049' last_name: Uhde orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8058-8857 citation: ama: Farruggio C, Uhde A.

Baseline findings hold even when controlling for likely reverse causality by employing instrumental variable techniques and substituting the accounting-based z-score ratio by market-based indicators of bank risk. Moreover, investigating the relationship between credit risk securitization and single z-score components in order to evaluate significant transmission channels proposed by relevant theoretical literature, we find a negative impact of securitization on bank profitability and capital environment as well as a positive relationship between securitization and the issuing bank's return volatility. Against the background of our empirical results we underline that the decision by the Basel Committee to enhance the new Basel III framework in the field of securitization is a step in the right direction. author: - first_name: Tobias C. full_name: Michalak, Tobias C. last_name: Michalak - first_name: André full_name: Uhde, André id: '36049' last_name: Uhde orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8058-8857 citation: ama: 'Michalak TC, Uhde A.
