The paper analyzes how the degree of centralization of the corporate culture of global banks affects the transfer of financial shock from parent banks to their subsidiaries abroad. The analysis is based on a new methodology for measuring the culture of centralization of multinational banking conglomerates, which is based on text analysis and measuring the language of dominance and authority in bank financial statements. The study reveals a number of new scientific results, the most important of which is that the subsidiaries of banks with a more autocratic culture reduce their lending to a greater extent after a financial shock for the parent bank, compared to conglomerates with less autocratic corporate culture.

The results are of global significance for our understanding of the transmission of crises and financial shocks across borders and the contamination between financial systems.
