Abstract

Our paper makes a fundamental contribution by studying loan loss provisioning over the credit cycle as three distinct phases. Looking at the three distinct phases of the financial crisis – the pre-crisis period, crisis period, and post-crisis period – is important as loan loss provisioning is driven by different factors in each, in part due to extensive shifts in (or in the application of) regulatory rule. Controlling for credit market information using data from the Senior Loan Officer Opinion Surveys (SLOOS) we extend the work of previous studies of forward-looking loan loss provisions using the delayed expected loss recognition approach. We contribute to the growing literature on forward-looking loan loss provisioning and early in the cycle loss recognition by incorporating a broader range of available credit information and explicitly controlling for structural breaks in the sample corresponding to the financial crisis.

See Wall and Koch (2000) and Wall and Benston (2005) for a discussion of the different factors involved in bank loan loss accounting decisions.

Bushman and Williams (2011) provide evidence that the ability of banks to delay expected loss recognition may be a source of systemic risk in the banking system as it reduces the ability of banks to absorb negative shocks and leads to greater opacity of earnings, which in turn weakens market discipline.

The SLOOS survey covers four general areas of lending: commercial real estate, commercial and industrial, home mortgage, and consumer loans. Consumer lending is further broken down into subcategories such as auto loans and credit cards. Unfortunately, differences in the breakdowns in consumer loans on the SLOOS and on the Call Reports made matching for consumer loans problematic for us. Hence, the consumer lending category was dropped from our sample. Of the three categories used in our analysis, the average of the fraction of C&I loans in the loan portfolio is about 35 %. The average for CRE and Home loans are 30, and 35 % respectively.
