Credit Scores and Committed Relationships
This paper presents novel evidence on the role of credit scores in the dynamics of committed relationships. We document substantial positive assortative matching with respect to credit scores, even when controlling for other socioeconomic and demographic characteristics. As a result, individual-level differences in access to credit are largely preserved at the household level. Moreover, we find...
متن کاملCredit Scores and College Investment
The private market of student loans has become an important source of college financing in the U.S. Unlike government student loans, eligibility conditions on student loans from the private market are based on the credit history of the student and the parents, who often serve as cosigners. In addition, interest rates on private loans vary significantly with credit scores (from 7.4 to 15.4 perce...

The supply and demand of credit are not always well aligned and matched, as is reflected in the countercyclical excess reserve-to-deposit ratio and interest spread between the lending rate and the deposit rate. We develop a search-based theory of credit allocation to explain the cyclical fluctuations in bank reserves, the interest spread, as well as credit rationing. We show that search frictio...

A movement in borrower net worth can shift the composition of the credit between projects with different productivity levels. The model thu...
