Abstract: This article examines the effects of trading activities of European retail banks on their exposure to systemic risk. We find that trading activities increase large (small) banks? systemic risk exposures, but only when the banking sector is highly (lowly) concentrated. This finding underlines that the implementation of policies favoring the harmonization of banking sector concentration of European countries? could remedy the negative effects of diversification on the stability of the European banking system. However, considering the difficulty of implementing such policies, a regulation policy separating these activities seems to be a solution to the instability of the European banking system resulting from trading activities of retail banks.
