Contagious Bank Runs and Committed Liquidity Support

چکیده
In a crisis, regulators and private investors can find it difficult, if not impossible, to tell whether banks facing runs are insolvent or merely illiquid. We introduce such an information constraint into global-games-based bank run model with multiple aggregate uncertainties. The creates vicious cycle between contagious falling asset prices limits the effectiveness of traditional emergency liquidity assistance programs. explain how regulator set up committed support contain contagion stabilize even without on banks’ solvency, rationalizing some recent developments in policy practices.

We construct an endogenous growth model in which bank runs occur with positive probability in equilibrium.

To avoid having to possibly liquidate shares at the marginal post-run price—in which case the risk-averse market-making sector will already hold a lot of share inventory and thus be more reluctant to absorb additional s...
متن کاملHerding and bank runs
Traditional models of bank runs do not allow for herding e¤ects, because in these models withdrawal decisions are assumed to be made simultaneously. I extend the banking model to allow a depositor to choose his withdrawal time. When he withdraws depends on his consumption type (patient or impatient), his private, noisy signal about the quality of the banks portfolio, and the withdrawal histori...
متن کاملBank Portfolio Restrictions and Equilibrium Bank Runs
and Headnote We put “runs” back in the bank runs literature. A unified bank, one that invests in both liquid and illiquid assets, can easily avoid runs but it still faces a small probability of non-run rationing of depositors. In a separated financial system, the bank only holds relatively liquid assets; it is subject to runs with small probability, but because of its overinvestment in the liqu...
