The Role of Banks in Promoting Post-disaster Economic Growth

Chapter Chapter 4 in Banking Institutions and Natural Disasters, 2023, pp 59-98 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Academic research on post-disaster recovery acknowledges that growth stems from increased bank lending to accommodate reconstruction efforts. Local banks are more active than multimarket ones in addressing the increased credit demand because their relationship lending approach allows them to evaluate borrowers’ likelihood of default correctly. At the same time, other factors matter, such as bank capitalization, securitization markets, and government subsidies. Banks’ lending strategies can no longer avoid the impact of increased climate risk on their future performance.
