Book Bank Deregulation   Monetary Order

Download or read book Bank Deregulation Monetary Order written by George Selgin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2002-03-11 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can the 'invisible hand' handle money? George Selgin challenges the view that government regulation creates monetary order and stability, and instead shows it to be the main source of monetary crisis. The volume is divided into three sections: * Part I refutes conventional wisdom holding that any monetary system lacking government regulation is 'inherently unstable', and looks at the workings of market forces in an otherwise unregulated banking system. * Part II draws on both theory and historical experience to show how various kinds of government interference undermine the inherent efficiency, safety, and stability of a free monetary system. * Part III completes the argument by addressing the popular misconception that a monetary system is unsound unless it delivers a stable output price-level.

Book Money  Banking  and Economic Activity

Download or read book Money Banking and Economic Activity written by Gail E. Makinen and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2014-05-10 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Money, Banking, and Economic Activity focuses on the use of macro- and microeconomic theory in the analysis of the interrelations of money, banking, and economic activity. The book first underscores the importance and definition of money and financial intermediaries. Discussions focus on financial intermediaries and risk reduction, ability of intermediaries to decrease their own risks, effect of inflation on credit monies, and empirical definition of money. The text then examines the supply of money and the economic role of nonmoney-creating financial intermediaries, including thrift institutions and monetary policy, federal funds and repurchase agreements, monetary analysis and the place of thrift institutions, and developments altering the functions of financial intermediaries. The publication takes a look at the evolution of the international monetary system, money in an open economy, electronic fund transfers, and the Gibson paradox and the term structure of interest rates. Topics include level of interest rates, importance of theories of the term structure, market structure of financial institutions, theory of the supply of money, and foreign exchanges and the balance of payments. The manuscript is a valuable source of data for researchers interested in the interrelations of money, banking, and economic activity.

Book The Financial Services Revolution

Download or read book The Financial Services Revolution written by Catherine England and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Chapter 5, William Shughart also considers the part that politics played in banking legislation during the 1930s, but he looks at the banking legislation passed in the United States. Shughart draws par ticular attention to the provisions in the Banking Act of 1933 that required the separation of commercial and investment banking activ ities. Applying a public choice analysis, Shughart asks who gained from the provisions, and he concludes that the commercial banking industry, the investment banking industry, and the U. S. Treasury Department can all be said to have benefited in the years immedi ately following the passage of the act. Richard Timberlake, in his comment, extends Shughart's analysis to show how the federal gov ernment manipulated the monetary policy of the 1930s for its own benefit. The history of the regulation of the savings and loan industry is the subject of Chapter 6. James Barth and Martin Regalia examine the way in which regulation of the industry has evolved since the first savings and loan was established in the 1830s. They conclude that the stated purpose of regulation appears to have changed, even while the regulations themselves often have not. Barth and Regalia provide some important insights into the contribution of thrift regu lation to the current problems facing the indusb-y as well as some suggestions about the direction reform should-and should not take.

Book A Primer on Money  Banking  and Gold  Peter L  Bernstein s Finance Classics

Download or read book A Primer on Money Banking and Gold Peter L Bernstein s Finance Classics written by Peter L. Bernstein and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-09-25 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the foremost financial writers of his generation, Peter Bernstein has the unique ability to synthesize intellectual history and economics with the theory and practice of investment management. Now, with classic titles such as Economist on Wall Street, A Primer on Money, Banking, and Gold, and The Price of Prosperity—which have forewords by financial luminaries and new introductions by the author—you can enjoy some of the best of Bernstein in his earlier Wall Street days. With the proliferation of financial instruments, new areas of instability, and innovative capital market strategies, many economists and investors have lost sight of the fundamentals of the financial system—its strengths as well as its weaknesses. A Primer on Money, Banking, and Gold takes you back to the beginning and sorts out all the pieces. Peter Bernstein skillfully addresses how and why commercial banks lend and invest, where money comes from, how it moves from hand to hand, and the critical role of interest rates. He explores the Federal Reserve System and the consequences of the Fed's actions on the overall economy. But this book is not just about the past. Bernstein's novel perspective on gold and the dollar is critical for today's decision makers, as he provides extensive views on the future of money, banking, and gold in the world economy. This illuminating story about the heart of our economic system is essential reading at a time when developments in finance are more important than ever.
