Abstract

We show that fluctuations in the ratio of non-core to core funding in the banking systems of advanced economies are largely driven by three global factors of both real and financial natures, with country-specific factors playing only a minor role. Exchange rate flexibility helps insulate the non-core to core ratio from such global factors. This insulation is stronger in periods away from global crises. Tighter prudential regulations appear to have a complementary effect to exchange rate insulation.
