Banking • What are banks ? • Banks act as financial intermediaries that accept deposits and channel them into investment.
Fractional Reserve System • It means banks are required to keep a given fraction of their total deposits as required reserves.
Minimum Reserve Ratio • It means the minimum fraction of a bank’s total deposits that is legally required to be in form of cash or specific assets.
Why do banks keep a minimum reserve ratio ? • It can meet the usual withdrawal of deposits. • It can prevent the banks from over lending. • It can maintain the confidence of the public to the banks. This will reduce the possibility of bank run.
Deposit Creation ( Credit Creation ) • Assume : • Minimum reserve ratio = 25% • Mr P deposits $1 000 cash with bank A. • The working will be done on the blackboard.
Maximum Banking Multiplier • As the minimum reserve ratio increases, the banking multiplier will decrease. • The whole process of deposit creation is called the multiple expansion of deposits.
Assumptions for the maximum deposit creation • Banks keep the minimum reserve. They have no excess reserve. • Banks can lend out all money they want to lend. There are enough borrowers to borrow the loan provided by banks. • All people deposit their money into the banks. There is no cash leakage from the banks to the public.
Explain why the actual deposit created is smaller than the maximum deposit created. • Banks keep excess reserve. • There is insufficient demand for the loan. There are not enough borrowers to borrow the loan. • There is cash leakage from the banks to the public. People do not deposit all the money back to the banks.
What is the excess reserve ? • Assume the minimum reserve ratio = 20% • Total deposit = $10 000 • Reserve = $3 500 • Ans. $1 500
What is the excess reserve ? • Excess reserve = actual reserve – minimum required reserve = $3 500 - $10 000 X 20% = $3 500 - $2 000 = $1 500
Brief Description of Deposit Creation in Sequence • If one deposits $1 000 in the bank that is an injection of new money. The bank has excess reserve that is $800. • The bank will loan out the excess reserve. • The money loaned out will be re-deposited into the bank.
Brief Description of Deposit Creation in Sequence • The bank will have excess reserve and loan out the money. • The process of bank deposit creation goes on. • Ultimately, the maximum total bank deposits created by $1 000 X 1/20% = $5 000. ( CE 1997 Q9c )
Deposit Contraction • Assume • A man withdraws $500 from his bank. • The bank does not keep excess reserve. • The minimum reserve ratio = 20%
Brief Description of Deposit Contraction in Sequence • If one withdraws $M from the bank. The bank will lose reserve. The actual reserve will be less than the required reserve. • The bank will call back loans or sell bank assets to the public.
Brief Description of Deposit Contraction in Sequence • Further withdrawal of bank deposit to repay the loans or to buy bank assets. • The process of bank deposit contraction goes on. • Ultimately, the maximum total bank deposits contracted by $M X 1/20% = $5M. ( CE 1995 Q10a )
How can banks increase the reserve to meet the minimum reserve requirement ? • The banks can call back the loan. • The banks can borrow from other banks. • The banks can sell the investment assets, e.g. shares or bonds to the public.
