This thesis investigates various aspects of systemic risk in nancial networks. Chapter 1 explores the existence of a contagion channel to security returns given that banks are connected via overlapping portfolios. Making use of a proprietary dataset on securities held by German banks, I identify the network induced through cross holdings and nd higher correlations among the returns on securities held by connected banks. This contagion channel to security returns is stronger for banks which are large, highly leveraged and highly interconnected and especially at work during the recent nancial crisis. Chapter 2 establishes a model for bank credit risk interconnectedness based on CDS data, in which defaults can be triggered by system...
