Abstract

We provide a detailed classification of core and non-core liabilities for the Turkish banking system a laShin and Shin (2010). We further carry out a two-stage liquidity stress test similar to Van Den End (2010) where we simulate inflow and outflow factors as well as the network topology of mutual liabilities between financial institutions. Our results indicate that Turkish banking system with relatively low level of non-core liabilities is to a great extent robust to liquidity shocks. Nevertheless, the level of non-core liabilities should be monitored closely as a systemic risk indicator, considering its pro-cyclical behaviour over the business cycle and its strong correlation with credit growth.
