Exchange rate shocks in multicurrency interbank markets

Abstract: We develop a framework for studying financial contagion triggered by exchange rate shocks. To this end, we simulate multicurrency interbank markets with stylized properties and study their behavior in response to sudden appreciations and depreciations of a particular currency. A key result of our analysis is that the concentration of many interbank exposures in the same currency can lead to significant systemic risk.
