Influence of Hybrid Recapitalization Obligations on Stability of the Financial System

Abstract

The market of hybrid recapitalization instruments is relatively young, but the first years indicate that the regulatory changes to their scope, introduced in response to the weaknesses of Basel II loss absorption instruments, did not significantly reduce the risk of bank failure in relation to classic capital instruments and did not significantly increase the stability of the financial system. Moreover, these instruments increase the cost of banks’ financing while at the same time increasing volatility. Due to the small share of hybrid bonds in banks’ capitals and too low thresholds of triggers, their ability to restructure and recapitalize problem banks without involving public funds is limited. At the same time, the premises for the continuation of the moral hazard are preserved. It is advisable to further regulate the structure of these instruments and calibrate the initiating events, as well as to create an intermediate class of loss absorption instruments.
