The absence of major nancial regulatory changes during our sample period makes it well-suited to identify the e ects of population aging on bank risk-taking. Second, we can exploit the Great Recession to analyze whether higher ris

That is, we can analyze whether laxer lending standards had an impact on nancial stability. And third, we avoid the zero lower bound on interest rates (Leahy et al., 2022).2.1 Mai
4、n variablesPopulation aging. Our main explanatory variable at the county level is the change in the log of the population of ages 65 and above from 1997 to 2007, denoted by oldc. We use the change in the number of seniors (i.e., in the level) rather than the change in the ratio of seniors to the tot
5、al population (i.e., in the share), because changes in the share could be driven by changes in the numerator or denominator. For example, a decline in the total population of a county would lead to an increase in the share of seniors, even though the number of seniors does not change. In such a case
6、, the relationship between e.g. deposits or loans and the change in the share of seniors would be driven by the decline in population.7 Detailed population data by age cohort are provided by the National Cancer Institute Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) program. We use these data a
7、lso to construct changes in the size of other age cohorts.Bank exposure. To calculate banks* exposure to aging counties, we use data from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporations (FDIC) Summary of Deposits (SOD), which provides information on the geographic distribution of bank deposits.8 We compu
8、te7ln regressions of the log of the share of seniors on the log of the total number of seniors (the numerator) and the log of the total population (the denominator), a Shapley decomposition of the R-squared shows that around two-thirds of the variation in the share is explained by the variation in t
9、he total population, and around one-third by the variation in the senior population. Using the share of seniors as an explanatory variable would hence lead to signi cant measurement issues, as most of the variation would be due to changes in the total population. Instead, we directly control for pop
10、ulationgrowth in our regressions.8An assumption underlying our analysis is that deposits raised by banks in a given county are raised from residents of that county. Amel et al. (2008) show that between 1992 and 2004, the median distance between a depositor and its bank was three miles and remained c
11、onstant over time. Nonetheless, the rise of online banking could mean that branchless deposits are recorded in the banks headquarters branch. To the extent that the amount of branchless deposits is uncorrelated with bank exposure, such measurement error would arguably not lead to a bias in the estim
12、ates. In line with this argument, we nd that excluding banks headquarter county from the analysis does not a ect our results (unreported).banks beginning-of-sample exposure asdepositsb;cX exposureb = c depositsb oldc;(1)where depositsb;c and depositsb denote bank bs deposits in county c and its tota
13、l deposits as of 1997. oldc is county cs change in the log of the population of ages 65 and above. High exposureb implies that a large share of banks, initial deposits is held in aging counties, while low exposure implies that deposits are held in counties with a small increase in the number of seni
14、ors. Higher exposure thus corresponds to an increase in deposit-weighted average aging in banks* borrower counties. Exposure is constructed from beginning-of-sample deposit shares, alleviating concerns about banks selectively opening branches in aging counties.9Instrumental variable strategy. Counti
15、es that experience a stronger increase in se-niors could di er along other dimensions that could matter for deposit growth. We thus predict old, i.e., the change in the population of ages 65 and above from 1997 to 2007, with the change in the population of age 45 to 65 from 1977 to 1987 in the same
16、county. In essence, we use the predetermined component of each countys age structure 20 years prior to our sample period as an instrumental variable for the actual change in the age structure. This approach builds on the assumption that the historical demographic structure is plausibly exogenous to
17、changes in contemporaneous confounding factors. For example, it purges old from changes in life expectancy, in- or out-migration, or incomes over the sample period.Similar to county aging, bank exposure could be correlated with other (unobservable) factors that a ect bank behaviour. For example, agi
18、ng counties could, for whatever reason, face better economic prospects in terms of their unemployment trajectory or income growth. Banks more exposed to aging counties would then also be more exposed to faster growing areas, which poses a threat for our identi cation strategy. To address this concer
19、n beyond the xed e ects strategy (explained below), we construct exposure in Equation (1) based on old predicted by the historical demographic structure. In addition, and to test whether exposure to aging counties is correlated with exposure to counties with better growth trajectories, we compute ex

22、outcome (granted or denied), loan amount, and borrower income for each loan.11 We measure bank risk-taking through the loan-to-income (LTI) ratio, de ned as loan volume over applicant income. The LTI ratio is a signi cant predictor of ex-post default (Fuster et al., 2021) and has been widely used in
23、 the literature to measure the riskiness of loans (DellAriccia and Marquez, 2006; DellAriccia et al., 2012; Duchin and Sosyura, 2014). We compute the change in the average LTI ratio, as well as at the 10th, 25th, 50th, 75th, and 90th percentile in each bank-county cell:LT I07 LT I97 b;cb;cLT lb;C =
24、(LT I07 + LT l97)=2 :(2)b;c b;cAdditionally, we compute the change in the share of denied applications in each bank-county cell. For these measures of risk-taking, we are restricted to the Intensive margin1, in the sense that we can only take into account counties in which banks made loans in 1997 a
