Risiko im Bankensektor: Vier von zehn Top-Aufsehern stammen aus Finanzindustrie
Europas Banken erzielen Überrenditen am Aktienmarkt, wenn ihre Beschäftigten in den Vorstand der Finanzaufsichtsbehörde wechseln. Das kommt häufiger vor als bekannt, zeigt eine Studie des Leibniz-Instituts für Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH). Der Befund deutet auf ein Risiko für die Finanzstabilität hin. Die Politik sollte die Aufsicht verbessern.

Declining Business Dynamism in Europe: The Role of Shocks, Market Power, and Technology
Filippo Biondi, Sergio Inferrera, Matthias Mertens, Javier Miranda
IWH Discussion Papers,
Nr. 19,
2023
Abstract
We study changes in business dynamism in Europe after 2000 using novel micro-aggregated data that we collected for 19 European countries. In all countries, we document a broad-based decline in job reallocation rates that concerns most economic sectors and size classes. This decline is mainly driven by dynamics within sectors, size, and age classes rather than by compositional changes. Large and mature firms experience the strongest decline in job reallocation rates. Simultaneously, the employment shares of young firms decline. Consistent with US evidence, firms’ employment has become less responsive to productivity shocks. However, the dispersion of firms’ productivity shocks has decreased too. To enhance our understanding of these patterns, we derive and apply a novel firm-level framework that relates changes in firms’ sales, market power, wages, and production technology to firms’ responsiveness and job reallocation.
