{"jel":["G21","G28","G32"],"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."}],"keyword":["European Banking","Non-performing Loans","Securitization"],"date_created":"2019-09-06T08:59:28Z","publication_status":"published","doi":"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.qref.2022.06.005","page":"48-64","year":"2022","status":"public","publisher":"Elsevier","author":[{"first_name":"Sascha Tobias","orcid":"0000-0002-7820-3903","last_name":"Wengerek","id":"48837","full_name":"Wengerek, Sascha Tobias"},{"first_name":"Benjamin","id":"48476","last_name":"Hippert","full_name":"Hippert, Benjamin"},{"first_name":"André","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8058-8857","full_name":"Uhde, André","last_name":"Uhde","id":"36049"}],"volume":"Vol. 86 (11)","department":[{"_id":"186"},{"_id":"188"}],"_id":"13147","title":"Risk allocation through securitization – Evidence from non-performing loans","citation":{"chicago":"Wengerek, Sascha Tobias, Benjamin Hippert, and André Uhde. “Risk Allocation through Securitization – Evidence from Non-Performing Loans.” The Quarterly Review of Economics and Finance Vol. 86 (11) (2022): 48–64. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.qref.2022.06.005.","short":"S.T.
