Abstract

Maturity transformation coupled with open foreign exchange positions expose financial intermediaries to unexpected changes in interest and exchange rates. This paper proposes to measure the degree of banks exposure to market risks by taking the variance of the total differential of the bank net-wealth against these prices.
