The Risk of Banks Expanding Their Permissible Nonbanking Activities

Author

  • Brewer, Elijah, III

Abstract

Risk exposure is a central issue in the continuing debate over the wisdom of allowing bank holding companies to expand into nonbank activities. This paper examines the relation between bank holding company risk and the composition of nonbank assets. The empirical evidence indicates that risk is negatively associated with the mix of bank holding company assets in permissible nonbank subsidiaries. The negative association between bank holding company risk and the mix of permissible nonbank activities appears to have positive implications for future deregulation. Copyright 1990 by MIT Press.
