Download or read book Banks Government Bonds and Default written by Nicola Gennaioli and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2014-07-08 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We analyze holdings of public bonds by over 20,000 banks in 191 countries, and the role of these bonds in 20 sovereign defaults over 1998-2012. Banks hold many public bonds (on average 9% of their assets), particularly in less financially-developed countries. During sovereign defaults, banks increase their exposure to public bonds, especially large banks and when expected bond returns are high. At the bank level, bondholdings correlate negatively with subsequent lending during sovereign defaults. This correlation is mostly due to bonds acquired in pre-default years. These findings shed light on alternative theories of the sovereign default-banking crisis nexus.

Download or read book Savings Bonds written by Daniel J. Pederson and published by TSBI Publishing. This book was released on 1999 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a multi-title review. Titles include 'Saving Bonds' and '100 Best Stocks to Own in the World' - With earlier editions, these two titles have already proved their value. Affordable and reliable, they provide advice that the average saver or investor can use. Pederson is a former supervisor of the Savings Bonds Division at the Detroit branch of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago. He also runs a fee-based service that provides bond owners with detailed analyses of their holdings and prospective purchases. This is the fourth updating of Pederson's guide to U.S. savings bonds, which is a unique resource because the government itself provides few details on how to manage bonds as part of an overall investment portfolio. Pederson explains why even banks are not always knowledgeable about the savings bonds they sell for the government, and he demystifies savings bonds interest rates. He also contrasts bonds with other investment options, distinguishes among the different types of savings bonds, and advises when best to purchase and redeem bonds. Perhaps most important, he discusses the various tax aspects of owning bonds. Walden's focus is on mutual funds, currently the most popular form of investment. He is a frequent contributor to financial publications and appears often on financial talk shows. He is also the author of 100 Ways to Beat the Market (1998) and The 100 Best Stocks to Own in America (1996). For the third time, he updates his roster of top-performing funds. After explaining the various categories of funds and how his ranking system works, Walden provides a basic profile of each of his 100 selections.
Download or read book Investment Banking written by Giuliano Iannotta and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-01-12 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From a historical point of view, the main activity of investment banks is what today we call security underwriting. Investment banks buy securities, such as bonds and stocks, from an issuer and then sell them to the ?nal investors. In the eighteenth century, the main securities were bonds issued by governments. The way these bonds were priced and placed is extraordinarily similar to the system that inve- ment banks still use nowadays. When a government wanted to issue new bonds, it negotiated with a few prominent “middlemen” (today we would call them investment bankers). The middlemen agreed to take a fraction of the bonds: they accepted to do so only after having canvassed a list of people they could rely upon. The people on the list were the ?nal investors. The middlemen negotiated with the government even after the issuance. Indeed, in those days governments often changed unilaterally the bond conditions and being on the list of an important middleman could make the difference. On the other hand, middlemen with larger lists were considered to be in a better bargaining position. This game was repeated over time, and hence, reputation mattered. For the middlemen, being trusted by both the investors on the list and by the issuing governments was crucial.
