Chapter 1 uses a mix of theory and data to study the unintended consequences of mandatory retention rules in securitization. The Dodd-Frank Act and the EU Securitization Regulation both impose a 5% mandatory retention requirement in securitization to motivate financial intermediaries to screen and monitor their borrowers more carefully. To better understand the impact of the policy, this chapter studies two related research questions. First, can mandatory retention have unintended consequences? Second, is the current level of retention optimal? To answer those questions, I propose a novel trade-off model in which retention strengthens monitoring but may also encourage banks to shift risk. I go on to provide empirical evidence supporting this unintended consequence: in the data, banks shifted toward riskier portfolios after the implementation of the retention rules embedded in Dodd-Frank. Furthermore, the model provides clear testable predictions about policy and corresponding consequences. I show in the data that stricter retention rules caused banks to monitor and shift risk simultaneously. According to the model prediction, such a simultaneous increase can only occur when the retention level is above optimal, which suggests that the current rate of 5% in the US is too high. Chapter 2Chapter 2 studies the source of fragility of OTC-natured interbank markets. Most research on the fragility of interbank markets -in the sense of multiplicity of equilibria driven by adverse selection-relies on a competitive market structure. By contrast, this chapter accounts for the OTC market nature and the market power of some players. Under adverse selection alone, markets are not fragile; that is, the equilibrium is unique. However, when adverse selection is combined with moral hazard on the borrowers' side, multiple equilibria arise again, and the bad equilibrium exhibits troubled banks gambling for resurrection. An interest rate floor eliminates the bad equilibrium. More generally, policies to reduce fragility should address moral hazard rather than adverse selection. Chapter 3Chapter 3 studies the contracting differences between corporate loans that are sold in the secondary market and that are securitized in the CLO market. With secondary loan sales and CLO markets being the two markets for corporate loan commoditization, empirical studies find that banks add additional restrictive covenants to loans sold and looser covenants to loans securitized. Why is it so? This chapter builds a theoretical model to explain such contracting differences in these two markets. The key mechanism is that the bank alleviates the borrowers' moral hazard problem via public monitoring and charges higher interest rates due to the relaxing of incentives provided. Those high interest rates facilitate loan sales because the information problem embedded in loan sales is lessened. In contrast, adverse selection is less severe in securitization since the bank retains the information-sensitive tranche.

In an empirical application of our model, we estimate the PPP's effectiveness and compare it with alternative policies. A policy targeted at the smallest firms could have increased the program's effectiveness significantly.

My research revolves around financial institutions. In this essay, I aim to further our understandings of the internal workings of financial intermediaries, how they interact in financial networks, and how they affect monetary policy and the macroeconomy. In the first chapter, James Peck and I study a bank run model where the depositors can choose how much to deposit. In the many years and many published articles following the bank runs paper of Diamond and Dybvig (1983), only a few papers have modeled the decision of whether to deposit, much less the decision of how much to deposit. The questions we address here are, how does the opportunity for consumers to invest outside the banking system- in investments that do not provide liquidity insurance- (1) affect the nature of the final allocation, (2) affect the nature of the optimal deposit contract, and (3) affect the fragility of the banking system? We extend the Diamond and Dybvig (1983) model so to incorporate sequential service constraint and the opportunity of outside investments and show that under certain conditions the equilibrium entails partial deposits, thus arguing for the optimality of limited banking. One might think that when depositors are allowed to invest a fraction of their endowments outside the banking system, they would be hedging against the risk of a run occurring, but losing out on some of the services provided by banks. Thus, one might think that this would improve the stability of the financial system at the expense of lost efficiency. However, we show that the opposite could be true, with reduced stability (runs more likely) but higher efficiency! In the second chapter, I study the strategic behavior of heterogeneous banks in a network and its implications on the stability of the financial system. I construct a model alas Allen and Gale (2000) wherein banks differ in whether they are hit by an uninsurable excess liquidity demand. I show that in such a framework banks that are already facing a high liquidity demand are more likely to incur the burden of excess liquidity shocks even when that shock has not directly hit them, i.e. relatively healthier banks strategically pass liquidation costs to relatively less healthy banks. I also show that private bailouts arise endogenously in this framework. If the strategic behavior of a bank results in the other bank's failure, the first bank may choose to incur the burden of the liquidity shock by itself to let the other bank survive and, thus, to control the indirect costs of failure feeding back to its portfolio. I also show that for some economies the financial network becomes more stable as the level of cross-deposits is increased from the minimum level that fully insures banks against liquidity demand uncertainty up to a threshold level. In the third chapter, I study the role of financial intermediaries in the transmission of monetary policy in low interest rate environments. The global financial crisis not only proved our understanding of intermediaries were inaccurate and in many ways misleading but also provided an unprecedented opportunity to investigate the questions in ways that were not possible before. Among those, was the behavior of economic players in ultra-low and even negative market rates. I study the internal workings of intermediaries by exploiting geographical variation in market concentration and provide the first explanation for the gradual deterioration of monetary policy power in low market rates that does not rely on bank-specific characteristics and similarly applies to non-bank intermediaries. I show that- in stark contrast to the textbook view but consistent with my mechanism- in low market rates more concentrated banks respond to market rate falls by reducing their deposit supply as well as their loan supply by more than those of less concentrated banks. I argue this behavior is the response of banks to loan and deposit demand becoming less elastic to market rate changes in low market rates which itself is due to the shift of household assets from the ones that are fully responsive to market rate changes (e.g. money market funds) to those less responsive (e.g. deposits) or irresponsive (e.g. cash) in low market rates. As the market rate falls, The downward pressure of the increased market power and the upward pressure of the traditional channels, cause the non-monotonic response of banks to market rate changes. The results help explain the puzzling slow recovery of the economy as well as stable inflation after the global financial crisis. I also show that local house prices become less responsive to market rate changes in low market rates in the counties that are exposed to high-market-power banks.

In a coordination game model a la Angeletos and Werning (2006), I show that the floating net asset value, which allows investors to redeem shares at market-based price rather than book value, may lead to more self-fulfilling runs. Compared to stable net asset value, which becomes informative only when the regime is abandoned, the floating net asset value acts as a public noisy signal, coordinating investors’ behaviors and resulting in multiplicity. The destabilizing effect increases when investors’ capacity of acquiring private information is constrained. The model implications are consistent with a surge in the conversion from prime to government institutional funds in 2016, when the floating net asset value requirement on the former is the centerpiece of the money market fund reform.

Banks' role as intermediaries between short term investors and long term borrow- ers has dominated the literature. Whilst this is an important feature, there are many other characteristics of banks. Each chapter in this PhD explores a different aspect of banking, from other forms of lending to banks' role in payment services. The first, and principal, chapter considers credit lines: `commitments' to lend if required. These remain off the bank's balance sheet until drawn upon. As off-balance sheet items, unused commitments face low capital charges under existing capital regulation. I ex- plore how this regulatory feature incentivises banks to build up exposure to these lines. This may lead to a suboptimal allocation of credit, ex post, following a market shock, as high drawdowns cause the balance sheet to balloon and the capital requirement to bind. In the second chapter, I consider banks as agents in large-value payment systems. In choosing the optimal time to settle a payment, banks trade off delay costs against the risk of having insuffcient liquidity to make future payments. With banks participating in multiple systems, I show how default in one system may spill over into another, through the strategic behaviour of multi-system participants. I explore how this risk varies with the degree of information asymmetry between agents in different systems. The third chapter focuses on retail banking. In joint work, we examine how the provision of consumer credit, either through current account overdrafts, or through credit card credit lines, affects the way in which debit and credit card networks com- pete. We find that, even when debit and credit cards compete, there are elements of complementarity between them. Banks providing debit cards and current accounts benefit when the consumer delays withdrawal of funds from her current account by using a credit card. This leads to surprisingly high debit merchant fees.
