摘要：This paper aims to estimate the effects of contagion on the three Romanian
commercial banks during financial crisis period, by using the CoVaR methodology. The
motivation in choosing this topic is represented by the fact there is little research on systemic
risk and contagion in the Romanian banking sector. The results of this paper highlight that
the largest contribution to the daily losses of the most important commercial banks is given
by Carpatica, while the lowest contribution is given by Transilvania. Moreover, we obtained
that the Carpatica has the highest impact on both BRD and Transilvania, while Transilvania
has the smallest impact.
