Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper presents a model to analyse alternative interbank settlement systems. Intraday credit exposures in netting systems generate systemic risk (the failure by one bank to settle at the end of the day may cause a chain of bank failures). To prevent this, mutual loss-sharing is implemented. Following Merton (1977), we develop a methodology to measure the cost of loss-sharing. Alternatively, banks can move to gross settlement. Since each payment is immediately settled, systemic risk is eliminated. But banks need collateral or reserves before making payments. Facing costly collateral holdings, banks will economise on them, which may generate delays. The trade-off between the cost of collateral and delay is incorporated in our model. Finally, we estimate the total cost of net and gross settlement. It is found that the extra cost of gross settlement exceeds the reduction in systemic risk.

Download or read book Distributed Ledger Technology Experiments in Payments and Settlements written by Mr.Ghiath Shabsigh and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2020-06-24 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Major transformations in payment and settlements have occurred in generations. The first generation was paper-based. Delivery times for payment instruments took several days domestically and weeks internationally. The second generation involved computerization with batch processing. Links between payment systems were made through manual or file-based interfaces. The change-over period between technologies was long and still some paper-based instruments like checks and cash remain in use. The third generation, which has been emerging, involves electronic and mobile payment schemes that enable integrated, immediate, and end-to-end payment and settlement transfers. For example, real-time gross settlement systems have been available in almost all countries. DLT has been viewed as a potential platform for the next generation of payment systems, enhancing the integration and the reconciliation of settlement accounts and their ledgers. So far, experiments with DLT experimentations point to the potential for financial infrastructures to move towards real-time settlement, flatter structures, continuous operations, and global reach. Testing in large-value payments and securities settlement systems have partly demonstrated the technical feasibility of DLT for this new environment. The projects examined analyzed issues associated with operational capacity, resiliency, liquidity savings, settlement finality, and privacy. DLT-based solutions can also facilitate delivery versus payment of securities, payment versus payment of foreign exchange transactions, and efficient cross-border payments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many questions have been raised about America's status in the increasingly interconnected global economy. Yet key factsâ€"such as the amount of foreign assets abroad owned by U.S. citizensâ€"are not known. The crucial data needed to assess the U.S. position are unavailable. This volume explores significant shortcomings in U.S. data on international capital transactions and their implications for policymakers. The volume offers clearcut recommendations for U.S. agencies to bring data collection and analyses of the global economy into the twenty-first century. The volume explores: How factors emerging since the early 1980s have shaped world financial markets and revealed shortcomings in data collection and analysis. How the existing U.S. data system works and where it fails how measurements of international financial transactions are recorded; and how swaps, options, and futures present special reporting problems. How alternative methods, such as collecting data, from sources such as global custodians and international clearinghouses, might improve coverage and accuracy.

Download or read book The Economics of Large value Payments and Settlement written by Mark Manning and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2009-09-24 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Central banks have over the past few years devoted considerable resource to the study of the economics of payments. In parallel, this field has begun to establish itself as a new subject for scholarly research, drawing in academic students and researchers. To date, however, there has been little attempt to draw together the key insights gained from this growing body of research. This volume seeks to offer just such a synthesis. It charts the frontier of our knowledge to date and puts it in the context of a comprehensive overview of the policy issues faced by central banks in this sphere. In particular, it explores central banks' roles in payment systems; the risks on which central banks focus in their oversight activities; and the challenges central banks face as the payments and settlement landscape evolves. The economics of payments is a multi-disciplinary field, taking in branches of economics such as monetary theory, search theory, game theory and industrial organisation. It also draws on techniques from network theory and makes extensive use of simulation studies to model complex interactions between payment system members. For each of the topics covered, this volume highlights some of the most influential works in the literature. The volume also draws heavily on empirical insights, in particular offering an historical context to central banks' involvement in payment systems.
