Abstract

We examine the effect of post-2010 banking regulation in South Africa on financial stability, macroeconomic variables and bank performance. We focus on risk spillovers and increased network and tail connectedness between banks, using a sample of 9 listed South African banks in 2008-2023. The implementation of Basel III regulation, particularly capital adequacy ratios, has reduced connectedness related risks but there is weak evidence of an effect on bank performance.
