Governments do not tax the return on equity less than debt interest, and lenders do not sufficiently honor the benefits of high equity with lower interest rates, owing to a lack of information about the true repayment probability. This is why equity capital held by financial institutions typically is more than twice as expensive as debt capital and why these institutions try to minimize its use.

(e) The cost of construction of the ESCAP conference building was capitalized during the 1996 1997 biennium, and the capital assets and members equity in the Capital Assets Fund increased by 46,500,000.

Where realistic debt restructuring scenarios indicate capital shortfalls, across the board conversion of bank debt into equity will be necessary. And where this does not suffice, banks will need immediate capital injections by their governments.

Equity capital is obtained in the first place from the project sponsors or other individual investors interested in taking stock in the project company.

Banks serve a special function in the economy that does warrant a special role for the government not in setting pay, but in imposing effective capital requirements. Higher and pro cyclical equity capital requirements on banks, combined with a requirement to raise contingent long term debt debt that converts into equity in a crisis is a better way forward.

Other complementary sources of equity capital may include investment funds and other so called institutional investors such as insurance companies, mutual funds or pension funds.

Under Chapter 11, companies with a solid underlying business generally swap debt for equity. Old equity holders are wiped out and old debt claims are transformed into equity claims in the new entity which continues operating with a new capital structure. Alternatively, the debt holders can agree to reduce the face value of debt, in exchange for some warrants.

Higher capital requirements mean, in essence, more equity funding and by implication, under any sensible definition relatively less debt for a given balance sheet size. This is an attractive and sensible policy, because today s global banks have relatively small slivers of equity underpinning their operations.

Private capital, which accounts for more than 90 of capital flows to developing economies, will remain the dominant source of long term financing. But the availability of long term capital appears to have been impaired, as traditional providers of equity to infrastructure projects, for example, have become less able or willing to invest.

For example, the SEC has traditionally thought about adequate equity capital in a regulated business, primarily as the amount needed to help compensate customers in the event that individual firms fail. But it would be much better, as Stein suggests, to think about equity capital from a systemic perspective that is, how much loss absorption is needed to prevent some form of a cascading confidence crisis.

A banking union for the euro area should be catalytic in encouraging deeper integration of the banking sector. But risk sharing is also about deepening capital markets, especially for equity, which is why we also need to advance quickly with a capital markets union.

The US financial institutions that went bankrupt in 2008 or that would have gone bankrupt without government help were in trouble because they lacked equity capital. They did not lack that capital because they never had it, but because they paid out too much of their abundant earnings in previous years to shareholders, leveraging their operations excessively with debt capital.
