论文摘要

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the oil pricebank risk nexus by considering the heterogeneity of bank characters.

Design/methodology/approach

This paper empirically tests the effect of oil price movements on bank credit risk by using a sample of 279 banks in the Middle East and North Africa countries from 2011 to 2017.

Findings

Authors find robust evidence that the credit risk of bank loan portfolios is negatively associated with increased oil prices. The heterogeneity analysis indicates that the effect of asset quality improvement brought about by rising oil prices is more salient in conventional banks, and banks with small size, low liquidity and whose funding source relies on customersdeposits.

Practical implications

The results favor the diversification of bank funding sources, the improvement of a countrys financial development, the adoption of explicit deposit insurance and macroprudential policies, such as countercyclical liquidity buffers, to weaken the adverse impact of oil prices declines.

Originality/value

The present paper enriches the literature of oil pricebank risk nexus by analyzing the heterogeneity of bank characters and advances our knowledge on the determined factors of bank riskiness and vulnerability.
