ABSTRACT
We explore the relationship between US bank claims and European bank claims on Emerging Market Economies (EMEs) and the level of shadow banking assets in 11 major EMEs over the 18-year period spanning 2002–2019. By using a fixed-effects panel model, we find that cross-border bank flows from US banks and European banks have different effects on shadow banking assets in EMEs. Whereas US bank claims on EMEs have a positive impact on the level of shadow banking assets in EMEs, European bank claims on EMEs are significantly negatively related to the level of shadow banking in EMEs.
