Abstract

Research background: Amidst deepening economic internationalization and financial globalization, multinational banks remain the most important financial intermediaries in the international debt capital market. By ensuring the cross-border movement and redistribution of credit resources, multinational banks’ credit activities lead to the accumulation of external indebtedness in the host countries. Purpose of the article: The purpose of the article is to substantiate scientific and practical recommendations for improving multinational banks’ credit activities regulations in order to minimize their negative impact on the level of external indebtedness and the formation of the debt-type economy in the host countries. Methods: Methods of abstraction, systematization and generalization, as well as system approach have been used in our research. Findings & Value added: A hierarchical system of multinational banks’ credit activity regulation, which includes institutional-subjective (the level of multinational banks themselves), macro-regional (the level of the home country and host countries), mega- and meta-regional, and global levels have been proposed. Scientific and practical approaches to regulating multinational banks’ credit activities, which are based on the introduction of special regulatory measures by the countries with debt-type economies (transformation of external financing sources, revision of forms of credit cooperation with multinational banks, intensification of inclusion in the processes of securitization of credit relations, introduction of a system of macroprudential regulation instruments, increasing the level of international liquidity), have been developed.

Highlights

  • The results of our previously published research confirm the existence of a strong relationship between external debt in most developed and developing countries and direct cross-boreder loans provided by MNBs, and show that MNBs’ lending is an important source of debt-type economy formation in the world (Zapotichna, 2020)

  • The first group is represented by articles in which theoretical approaches to the study of the emergence of external debt and the formation of the debt-type economy, practical aspects of assessing the level of external debt and its management are overviewed (Muhanji and Ojah, 2011; Kumar, Bhutto, Mangrio and Kalhoro, 2019; Dey and Tareque, 2020; Anderu, Omolade and Oguntuase, 2019)

  • Given the results of our earlier research, we believe that in the face of growing risks associated with global financial markets and the general uncertainty of the global economic environment, the implementation of aggressive credit strategies by MNBs will provoke further increase in numberі of debt-type economies and exacerbate external debt problems of individual borrowers, but may lead to the development of a systemic debt crisis in the world

Summary

Introduction

The results of our previously published research confirm the existence of a strong relationship between external debt in most developed and developing countries (in particular, those of systemic importance to the world economy) and direct cross-boreder loans provided by MNBs, and show that MNBs’ lending is an important source of debt-type economy formation in the world (Zapotichna, 2020).The ambiguous impact of MNBs’ lending on the economy of the host countries, the potential risks of excessive external debt accumulation indicate the need to develop and implement a number of measures to regulate MNBs’ lending at various levels.The purpose of the following article is to substantiate scientific and practical recommendations for improving the system of MNBs’ lending activities regulation in order to minimize their negative impact on the external debt and the formation of the debt-type economy in the host countries.Three groups of scientific articles construct the theoretical basis of our research. The purpose of the following article is to substantiate scientific and practical recommendations for improving the system of MNBs’ lending activities regulation in order to minimize their negative impact on the external debt and the formation of the debt-type economy in the host countries. The first group is represented by articles in which theoretical approaches to the study of the emergence of external debt and the formation of the debt-type economy, practical aspects of assessing the level of external debt and its management are overviewed (Muhanji and Ojah, 2011; Kumar, Bhutto, Mangrio and Kalhoro, 2019; Dey and Tareque, 2020; Anderu, Omolade and Oguntuase, 2019). The third group is represented by scientific articles which analyze, assess and classify the determinants of cross-border bank flows (Barrell and Nahhas, 2020; Müller and Uhde, 2013; Aysun and Hepp, 2016; Horobet, Radulescu, Belascu and Dita, 2021)
