Should bank capital regulation be risk sensitive? / by Toni Ahnert, James Chapman and Carolyn Wilkins. : FB3-5/2018-48E-PDF
"How much debt a bank should have issued relative to equity (capital) is a key question for policymakers and bank regulators.

In this paper, we construct a simple theoretical model to examine the problem of risk sensitivity from the point of view of the bank regulator"--Non-technical summary, p. i.
