In her job market paper, April (@AprilMeehl) models bank decisions under bail-in versus bailout policies to quantify the impacts on the bank size distribution and the frequency of big bank failure. #EconJobMarket #EconTwitter https://t.co/iWNloIbRJ6

@AliUppalEcon Thank you, Ali! Looking forward to continuing our discussions of modeling bank risk once we finish this market!

I am trained in both economics and finance and study the unintended consequences of government regulation due to the strategic nature of firms/financial institutions. You can learn more about my research, teaching, and experience on my website https://t.co/7XAATi0GcM!

The number of big banks decreases by 44%. Banks that still grow above the threshold are those with lower loan default rates. These banks are less likely to fail, so the probability of big bank failure decreases 77%.

Thank you, Jennifer, for sharing my job market paper! Thread coming soon on my research about bail-in policies for failing big banks!
