Deposits’ special function:

Banks form the backbone of

the payments system and fa-

cilitate the net payments

Storing payment surpluses:

What happens with net pay-

ment surpluses at the end of

the day? Through what ins-

truments are money balances

stored within the system?

For every institution, money

is something different.

hierarchy of money…

The sovereign as a “bank”:

Without the sovereign the

money matrix is incomplete.

We do not typically think

of her as a bank, but the

sovereign is also capable

of absorbing money demand.

The alchemy of banking:

Take more [o/n liquidity],

give less [o/n liquidity]

and put the rest in term…

…this exposes “banks” to

rollover risks, and if

there is a run you ask:

“do I have enough [o/n]

liquidity to survive?”.

Different institutions

have different sets of

backups for survival if

o/n liquidity runs out.

It is the type and mix of

these backups (or “puts”)

that determine the strength

of money claims’ promise of

at par on demand liquidity.

Page 30: How the Financial System Works · How the Financial System Works 1 - A Map of Money Flows in the Global Financial Ecosystem - by Zoltan Pozsar An Appendix to the paper “Shadow Banking:

Hierarchy of liquidity puts:

Money funds can borrow

only limited amounts.

If this option is exhausted

money funds must sell.

In a panic, this will likely

spiral into a fire sale.

Enter the Fed’s RRPs:

RRPs effectively give money

funds and dealers, the core

entities of the shadow ban-

king system, access to a re-

serve account at the Fed for

the very first time in U.S.

monetary history. Do appre-

ciate the evolutionary sig-

nificance of this step and

look beyond the view that

the only significance of

RRPs is that they will help

the Fed control short rates.

RRPs are likely a station,

not a destination (more on

this shortly in Part II).

RRPs and cash pools:

Unlike individuals, banks

and now shadow banks, cash

pools still do not have a

direct access to the Fed’s

liabilities (the ultimate

form of money, and the sa-

fest of safe assets around).

That is, corporations and

asset managers are still

constrained to holding

mostly shadow money claims.

But the quality of shadow

money claims is now much

better because they are

now backed (at least in

part) by something better

(RRPs) than ever before.

RRPs and cash pools:

Consider RRPs potential as

a macro-prudential tool.

Required minimum RRP balan-

ces for shadow banks could

become equivalent to what

minimum reserve requirements

are for traditional banks.

The implementation of mini-

mum RRP balances would in-

crease the safety of shadow

money claims further still.

This could be an evolution-

ary step toward Mehrling’s

“dealer of last resort” in

Bagehot 21st century sense.

Risk PMs are security rich but return poor. They always search for yield.

Cash PMs are cash rich but safety poor. They primarily search for safety.

A Macro View on Shadow Banking

Page 150: How the Financial System Works · How the Financial System Works 1 - A Map of Money Flows in the Global Financial Ecosystem - by Zoltan Pozsar An Appendix to the paper “Shadow Banking:

150

1. Bond portfolios are getting more and more leveraged andbonds are becoming more and more valuable as collateral.

2. Leveraged bond portfolios help asset-liability matchingin an ever-lower yield environment and collateral givescash pools safety in a system w/ an outdated safety net.

3. Credit, maturity and liquidity transformation is a start,but ask “why”: to manage future and present imbalances.

4. Credit transformation: bond-like volatility and equity-like returns to help CIOs meet future promises (“theme”).

5. Maturity and liquidity transformation: safe, short-termassets for the safekeeping of skewed incomes (“theme”).

6. RRPs are about more than just controlling short rates.They give shadow banks access to a reserve account at theFed, and are a first step toward “dealer of last resort”.
