Abstract

L’indicateur d’ « excès d’endettement privé » ou « gap bâlois » s’établit fin 2016 à 1,8 point de pourcentage.À partir de 2 points de pourcentage, le Comité européen du risque systémique considère que des risques pour la stabilité financière pourraient survenir et il recommande aux autorités macroprudentielles nationales une activation du coussin de fonds propres bancaires contracyclique. Mais que signifie exactement cet indicateur ? Comment le mesure-t-on ? Quelle est sa robustesse ?.
