论文摘要：

This paper shows that banks issue larger loans when the borrower has an active CDS market on its debt. The results are more pronounced when there is an active CDS market referencing the borrower’s debt. The effect only exists for banks active in CDS trading. Meanwhile, banks active in CDS trading do not charge higher spread for the riskier loans they issue to CDS firms. Moreover, the average credit quality of the loans for CDS firms is lower and continues to deteriorate following initiation, compared with loans from similar firm without a CDS market. These findings suggest CDS encourages banks to take on more risk through extending riskier credits without changing pricing. A bank-level analysis suggests that such risk-taking behavior ultimately results in riskier profile for individual banks.
