Abstract

A typical feature of recent financial crises is a strong synchronization of credit in the private real estate market with real estate prices. The paper examines the relationship between real estate prices, debt, financial crises, and fluctuations in aggregate economic activity. Since real estate evaluation plays a key role in lending, complex dynamics with feedback effects emerge. These dynamics do not only amplify fluctuations via overshooting in the real estate market. They can also result in boom-and-bust phases for the overall economy, endangering the stability of the financial system and possibly triggering long-term stagnation. Macro-prudential measures are needed to dampen these dynamics, thus enabling a more robust financial system. Finanzkrisen der jüngsten Zeit zeichnen sich durch einen starken Gleichlauf der Entwicklung der Kreditvergabe am privaten Immobilienmarkt mit der Entwicklung der Immobilienpreise aus. Der Aufsatz untersucht den Zusammenhang zwischen Immobilienpreisen, Verschuldung, Finanzkrisen und den Schwankungen der gesamtwirtschaftlichen Wirtschaftsaktivität. Weil bei der Kreditvergabe der Wert von Immobilien eine zentrale Rolle spielt, ergeben sich komplexe Dynamiken mit Rückkoppelungseffekten. Sie verstärken durch Überschießen nicht nur die Schwankungen am Immobilienmarkt, sondern lösen auch boom-and-bust-Phasen der Gesamtwirtschaft aus. Dies gefährdet die Stabilität des Finanzsystems und kann langfristig Stagnation auslösen. Makro-prudenzielle Maßnahmen sind notwendig, um diese Dynamik zu dämpfen und so ein robusteres Finanzsystem zu ermöglichen.
