Abstract

This paper presents a sectoral analysis of systemic risk. We consider a comprehensive sample of European and U.S. financial institutions separated into three sectors —banks, insurers, and asset managers— and use three complementary systemic risk indicators to produce Systemic Risk Profiles. We show that the type of systemic risk varies between sectors and depends on firms' size. Furthermore, large corporations appear to build up common exposure at the beginning of a crisis and are the most exposed to extreme losses. Smaller institutions are highly exposed to illiquidity, turning them into a channel of contagion at the end of the crisis.
