Abstract

El presente trabajo propone una metodología para la construcción de un índice de vulnerabilidad bancaria, calculado sobre la base de ejercicios de stress-testing. El mismo tiene por fin estimar la evolución de la “salud” de un sistema bancario ante la ocurrencia de diversos escenarios macroeconómicos y financieros de estrés, es decir, situaciones extremadamente adversas, poco probables, pero plausibles. La metodología que se propone sería útil para la detección temprana de vulnerabilidades, facilitando acciones preventivas o de mitigación. Se incluye una aplicación ilustrativa para el caso del grupo de bancos privados argentinos durante el período 1996-2008, desarrollada mediante la generación de escenarios de estrés por simulación de Monte Carlo. Los resultados muestran, en líneas generales, un buen comportamiento del índice de vulnerabilidad bancaria, y también permiten revelar alcances y limitaciones de la metodología. En particular, se resalta su marcada sensibilidad respecto a los cambios en criterios contables o pautas regulatorias, lo que requiere una lectura prudente e informada de los resultados.
