Abstract: The financial crisis highlighted a need for enhanced statistics to allow for a more in-depth financial stability analysis. The Bank for International Settlements (BIS) consolidated banking data, which measures banks' country risk exposures, is one dataset that facilitates a worldwide evaluation. It captures the global consolidated claims of international banks headquartered in BIS reporting countries and has been expanded to address data gaps identified following the financial crisis. The benefits of these more granular data are demonstrated through the analysis of foreign claims by Irish banks, international claims on Ireland by foreign banks and linkages between BIS reporting countries, both pre and post crisis. A network analysis of the exposures of banking sectors in BIS reporting countries on vulnerable EU states and sovereigns is also presented.
