medium · FRM Part 2 Operational Risk

In the context of macroprudential policy, a 'Type 2 error' regarding the Credit-to-GDP gap signal and the CCyB would be defined as:

  1. Releasing the CCyB too late in a crisis, causing a procyclical contraction in lending.
  2. Using the wrong GDP figure in the denominator, leading to an incorrect gap calculation.
  3. Activating the CCyB when no systemic crisis subsequently occurs, leading to unnecessary capital costs for banks.
  4. Failing to activate the CCyB ahead of a systemic banking crisis when the credit gap was actually signaling danger.
