International Banking and Liquidity Risk Transmission: Evidence from Canada

James Chapman and Evren Damar

IMF Economic Review, 2015, vol. 63, issue 3, 455-478

Abstract: This paper investigates how liquidity conditions in Canada may affect domestic and/or foreign lending of globally active Canadian banks, and whether this transmission is influenced by individual bank characteristics. It finds that Canadian banks expanded their foreign lending during the recent financial crisis, often through acquisitions of foreign banks. It also finds evidence that internal capital markets play a role in the lending activities of globally active Canadian banks during times of heightened liquidity risk.
