17/10/2013 – 10/10/2019 Paris, FrancePHD IN ECONOMIC SCIENCES University Paris 1 - Panthéon-Sorbonne

Thesis title: Evolution of Risk Management Methods in Banks under the Basel III Framework: A Study on Macroprudential Stress Tests in Europe
Thesis objective: My thesis investigated the imperfections of macroprudential stress tests from a theoretical perspective, particularly by establishing a link with the limitations of the function that calculates regulatory capital in internal model approaches (IRB). Additionally, I proposed a specifc stress test for concentrated credit portfolios and developed a new methodology to refect macroeconomic shocks on banks’ capital requirements using a systematic risk multi-factor model. I also measured the impact of a specifc liquidity stress test on a bank's solvency.

2024● Impact of Specifc Liquidity Shocks on the Bank’s SolvencyJournal of Risk Finance

This study aims to demonstrate and measure the impact of liquidity shocks on a bank’s solvency, particularly when the bank lacks sufcient liquid assets. The proposed model, which extends Merton’s (1974) model, enables banks to determine the necessary level of liquid assets required to withstand various liquidity shock scenarios (including potential second-round efects) under the assumptions considered. Therefore, it can contribute to:Enhancing Internal Liquidity Adequacy Assessment Processes (ILAAPs): Allowing banks to manage liquidity from a solvency perspective.Improving the Prudential Framework: Addressing the separation of liquidity and solvency in the current regulatory approach.Expanding Existing Literature: Addressing the insufcient study of the impact of liquidity risk on solvency risk.

The article analyzes the European Banking Authority (EBA) October 2023 report on the integration of environmental and social (E&S) risks under Pillar 1 (calculation of minimum capital requirements for banks). It focuses on the methodological challenges arising from the current IRB framework, particularly those related to the regulatory guidance of the “IRB Repair” program, for the consideration of E&S risks. Additionally, it proposes potential remediation strategies, such as integrating ESG risks into the calculation of economic/internal capital and imposing limits on unsustainable exposures.
