J Boonprakaikawe and S Ghosal

CSGR Working Paper No. 70/01

Abstract:

 

We show that even with noisy signals on the quality of a bank's assets multiple equilibria exist in models of banking. We argue that the conditions under which this happens arise naturally in models of banking.

Keywords: Banking, fundamentals, signals and equilibria
