Presentation Transcript

  1. Causes of Non-Fed Variables: M2 Determination • Federal Reserve controlled variables: HNON (open market operations), rD, rT. • This chapter -- studies key causes of k, t, mmmf, e, and DL.

  2. Key Causes of k = C/D • Interest rates (i), i  k • Bank Panics, Panic  k • Illegal Activity, increases the demand for cash • Financial Innovation towards transactions convenience (e.g. credit cards) (FI), FI  k

  3. Key Causes of t = T/D • Interest rates (i), i  t • Market Risk (Stock) (S), S  t • Uncertainty About the Economy (Y), Y  t • Sweep Programs (SWEEP), SWEEP  t

  4. Key Causes of mmmf = MMMF/D • Interest rates (i), i  mmmf • Market Risk (Stock) (S), S  mmmf • Uncertainty About the Economy (Y), Y  mmmf 

  5. Key Causes of e = ER/D • Interest rates (i), i  e • Expected Deposit Outflows (DOE) DOE  k • Deposit Risk, or Uncertainty About Deposit Outflows (D) D  e

  6. Recent Developments: Increasing the e-Ratio • Increased Vault Cash for Servicing ATMs. • Establishment of Clearing Balances with the Federal Reserve, receives some return from the Fed. • Future – Interest on excess reserves?

  7. Key Causes of Discount Loans (DL) • Interest rates (i), i  DL • The Discount Rate (iDISC), iDISC   DL • Fed Surveillance, Surveillance  DL

  8. Synthesizing the Analysis • Event  • What components of M2 determination are affected, and how?  • How does this change M2 (immediately and/or through bank loaning)?

  9. M2 Determination: A Review M2 = (1 + k + t + mmmf) (HNON + DL) (k + rD + rTt + e) The money multiplier (m2)

  10. How the Components Affect M2: A Review HNON M2 DL  M2 rD  M2 rT  M2 k  M2 t  M2 mmmf  M2 e  M2

  11. Example 1 -- An Increase in Interest Rates i  k M2 i  t M2 i  mmmf M2 i  e M2 i  DL M2 Is there a money supply function?

  12. Example 2 -- 1929-33 (Major Panic/Bank Failures) Panic  k  M2 Could the Federal Reserve have offset the situation (Discount Window, emergency loans)? DL  M2

  13. Example 3 -- 1934-41 (Keynesian Liquidity Trap) • Federal Reserve -- practicing active monetary policy. HNON M2

  14. 1934-41 -- Bank Behavior • But, banks experience high deposit risk (D), expected deposit outflows (DOE), and very low interest rates  desire to hold large amounts of excess reserves. D, DOE, i e  M2 • Offsets the effect of policy.
