Panel 2 : Challenges and opportunities
Júlia Király
Deputy Governor, Magyar Nemzeti Bank
„This time it was not us”
• The epicentre of the crisis was not in emerging markets
• It was originating from developed countries …
– Macro imbalances (low interest rates, excess liquidity, housing market
boom, saving imbalance...)
– Financial market imbalances (yield hunting and greedy risk appetite,
originate-to-distribute model and subprime lending, „toxic assets”:
highly leveraged, structured products, high leverage, shadow banking
system...)
• …and spreading towards East through trade and financial
markets
• Strong financial and trade integration in the CEE region incl.
Hungary has led to fast spill-over of the crisis

Hungary’s high vulnerability triggered an avalanche
„Fiscal alcoholism”
Large public debt
1. Government risk
Integrated banking system with
developed countries
Overoptimistic expectations of
the households
Liberalised balance of capital
High HUF yields
Lending in foreign currency
150% loan to deposit ratio
2. Banking sector risk

Response to the crisis
• Immediate remedies for the liquidity crisis:
– MNB: extended collaterals, LOLR in FX!, decreased reserve requirement
– Foreign parent banks: replacing money market funds
• Fixing balance sheets:
– Government: a sizeable and structural fiscal adjustment - pro-cyclical effects (cut
in social transfers, tax reshuffling: VAT and real estate tax↑, taxes on labor↓)
– Households: increase net saving position, decrease credit demand
– Companies: labor market adjustment, postponing investments
– Banks: deleverage, decrease L/D ratio and tighten credit conditions
• Monetary policy: focus on price stability AND financial stability
(forced tightening, slow easing)
Hungarian banks withstand the shock

• Loan loss ratio is expected to
triple in 2009 and slightly
increase in 2010, while in the
stress scenario it would be 5-6
times higher in 2010 than in
2008
• Strong capital position is
expected to be kept along the
baseline scenario (end-2010
CAR above 11%)
• Recapitalisation needs (EUR
400-600 million for the whole
banking system) under a severe
stress scenario are manageable

The potential output can be negatively affected by the
crisis
• Productivity (TFP):
– Financing constraints disrupt daily operations
– Expenditure on innovation falls
– Sluggish reallocation between industries
• Labour input:
– Long-term unemployment erodes human capital
• Capital input:
– Capital accumulation slows down
– Excess capacities are scrapped
• But two country-specific factors reduce these negative effects:
– High risk premia fall with fiscal consolidation
– Government measures boost labor market participation
Financial crises reduce potential growth
although their long-term impact varies:
Lower long-run potential
growth rate (Japan)?
Full recovery in levels (Sweden)? One-time loss in output level
(Finland)?

IMF estimations
– Growth regression
– Potential growth is 0.6-2.5 pp
lower after the crisis
– Hungary is mostly affected
through its debt burden

…but Hungary with lower post-crisis potential
output growth is not an exception in CEE
European Commission estimations for the CEE region
– Potential growth slows to 2-2.5 per cent
– No recovery to pre-crisis growth rates (contrary to the euro area)
