Abstract:	This dissertation is composed of three chapters on macroeconomics and banking. The main objective of these chapters is to analyze how the banking sector affects the macroeconomy. In Chapter 1 I explore how the optimal capital requirement varies with the level of competition in the banking sector. In Chapter 2 I investigate how banking competition affects the business cycle and the transmission of uncertainty shocks. Finally, in Chapter 3 I analyze the business cycle implications of macroprudential regulation.
