Book Synopsis A Model of the Lender of Last Resort by : Mr.Haizhou Huang
Download or read book A Model of the Lender of Last Resort written by Mr.Haizhou Huang and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1999-03-01 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper develops a model of the lender of last resort. It provides an analytical basis for “too big too fail” and a rationale for “constructive ambiguity”. Key results are that if contagion (moral hazard) is the main concern, the Central Bank (CB) will have an excessive (little) incentive to rescue banks and the resulting equilibrium risk level is high (low). When both contagion and moral hazard are jointly analyzed, the CB’s incentives to rescue are only slightly weaker than with contagion alone. The CB’s optimal policy may be non-monotonic in bank size.
Book Synopsis The Lender of Last Resort Function after the Global Financial Crisis by : Marc Dobler
Download or read book The Lender of Last Resort Function after the Global Financial Crisis written by Marc Dobler and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2016-01-22 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The global financial crisis (GFC) has renewed interest in emergency liquidity support (sometimes referred to as “Lender of Last Resort”) provided by central banks to financial institutions and challenged the traditional way of conducting these operations. Despite a vast literature on the topic, central bank approaches and practices vary considerably. In this paper we focus on, for the most part, the provision of idiosyncratic support, approaching it from an operational perspective; highlighting different approaches adopted by central banks; and also identifying some of the issues that arose during the GFC.
Book Synopsis A Model of the Lender of Last Resort by : Charles Goodhart

Book excerpt: This paper develops a model of the lender of last resort (LOLR). In a simple one-period setting, the Central Bank (CB) should only rescue banks which are above a threshold size, thus providing an analytical basis for "too big too fail". We also provide a rationale for "constructive ambiguity". In a dynamic setting, both the probability of the need for LOLR support and the likelihood of a bank requiring LOLR being insolvent in each period is a function of CB's prior actions, since these actions then influence the subsequent behavior of banks and depositors. In these conditions the CB's optimal LOLR policy is time varying and contingent on the probabilities and effects of failure and of the likelihood of a bank requiring LOLR being insolvent. If contagion is the main concern, then the CB in general would have an excessive incentive to rescue banks, especially large banks, and then the resulting equilibrium risk level is high. If moral hazard is the main concern, the CB in general would have little incentive to rescue banks. In this case, its incentives to rescue do not critically depend on bank size. When both contagion and moral hazard are jointly analyzed, then the CB's incentives to rescue are stronger than in the single period setting, but weaker than in the dynamic setting with contagion alone. In such a dynamic setting the CB's optimal policy may be non-monotonic in bank size. We show that there may be dynamic fluctuations wherein the CB may rescue because the banks have adopted a low risk profile, which leads banks to prefer higher risk, which causes the CB to be tougher. Overall, we believe that we have provided a formal basis to explain several facets of CB's actual, historical LOLR behavior.
Book Synopsis The New Lombard Street by : Perry Mehrling
Download or read book The New Lombard Street written by Perry Mehrling and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2022-11-29 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Walter Bagehot's Lombard Street, published in 1873 in the wake of a devastating London bank collapse, explained in clear and straightforward terms why central banks must serve as the lender of last resort to ensure liquidity in a faltering credit system. Bagehot's book set down the principles that helped define the role of modern central banks, particularly in times of crisis—but the recent global financial meltdown has posed unforeseen challenges. The New Lombard Street lays out the innovative principles needed to address the instability of today's markets and to rebuild our financial system. Revealing how we arrived at the current crisis, Perry Mehrling traces the evolution of ideas and institutions in the American banking system since the establishment of the Federal Reserve in 1913. He explains how the Fed took classic central banking wisdom from Britain and Europe and adapted it to America's unique and considerably more volatile financial conditions. Mehrling demonstrates how the Fed increasingly found itself serving as the dealer of last resort to ensure the liquidity of securities markets—most dramatically amid the recent financial crisis. Now, as fallout from the crisis forces the Fed to adapt in unprecedented ways, new principles are needed to guide it. In The New Lombard Street, Mehrling persuasively argues for a return to the classic central bankers' "money view," which looks to the money market to assess risk and restore faith in our financial system.

Book Synopsis A Simple Model of An International Lender of Last Resort by : Mr.Haizhou Huang
Download or read book A Simple Model of An International Lender of Last Resort written by Mr.Haizhou Huang and published by INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND. This book was released on 2000-04-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper develops a simple model of an international lender of last resort (ILOLR). The world economy consists of many open economies, each with a banking system and a central bank operating under a pegged exchange rate regime. The fragility of the banking system and the limited ability of a domestic central bank to provide international liquidity together can cause currency and banking crises. An international interbank market can help an economy with the needed international liquidity, but with potential costs of international financial contagion. An ILOLR can play a useful role in providing international liquidity and reducing international contagion.

Book Synopsis Connectedness and Contagion by : Hal S. Scott
Download or read book Connectedness and Contagion written by Hal S. Scott and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2016-05-13 with total page 439 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An argument that contagion is the most significant risk facing the financial system and that Dodd¬Frank has reduced the government's ability to respond effectively. The Dodd–Frank Act of 2010 was intended to reform financial policies in order to prevent another massive crisis such as the financial meltdown of 2008. Dodd–Frank is largely premised on the diagnosis that connectedness was the major problem in that crisis—that is, that financial institutions were overexposed to one another, resulting in a possible chain reaction of failures. In this book, Hal Scott argues that it is not connectedness but contagion that is the most significant element of systemic risk facing the financial system. Contagion is an indiscriminate run by short-term creditors of financial institutions that can render otherwise solvent institutions insolvent. It poses a serious risk because, as Scott explains, our financial system still depends on approximately $7.4 to $8.2 trillion of runnable and uninsured short-term liabilities, 60 percent of which are held by nonbanks. Scott argues that efforts by the Federal Reserve, the FDIC, and the Treasury to stop the contagion that exploded after the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers lessened the economic damage. And yet Congress, spurred by the public's aversion to bailouts, has dramatically weakened the power of the government to respond to contagion, including limitations on the Fed's powers as a lender of last resort. Offering uniquely detailed forensic analyses of the Lehman Brothers and AIG failures, and suggesting alternative regulatory approaches, Scott makes the case that we need to restore and strengthen our weapons for fighting contagion.

Book Synopsis The International Lender of Last Resort by : Olivier Jeanne
Download or read book The International Lender of Last Resort written by Olivier Jeanne and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2001-05 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper considers how an international lender of last resort (LOLR) can prevent self-fulfilling banking and currency crises in emerging economies. We compare two different arrangements: one in which the international LOLR injects liquidity into international financial markets, and one in which its resources are used to back domestic banking safety nets. Both arrangements would require important changes in the global financial architecture: the first one would require a global central bank issuing an international currency, while the second one would have to be operated by an "international banking fund" closely involved in the supervision of domestic banking systems.
