Review: Basic EconomicsEconomists teach that the most efficient use of
resources can be achieved by free competition“Every individual seeks the most
advantageous employment for his capital….
“Study of his own advantage necessarily leads him to prefer that employment most advantageous to society” - Adam Smith, 1776

What to do about the dangers of banking?
For centuries there has been disagreementFree enterprise banking – let people create and
run banks freelyAdvocates believe most problems of banking are
caused by government mistakesThey fear regulation will reduce efficiency
Government-regulated banking – government sets rules about who can start a bank and how they can run it Advocates believe government can reduce the dangers
without greatly reducing efficiency

Attractions Of The Global Capital Market
Borrowers benefit from:
the additional supply of funds global capital markets provide
the associated lower cost of capital (the price of borrowing money or the rate of return that borrowers pay investors)
The cost of capital is lower in international markets because the pool of investors is much larger than in the domestic capital market

Manias and CrashesUnfortunately, the world economy since the time
of the Holy Roman Empire (800 years ago!!!) has been plagued by Manias – periods when everyone believes they
can make money doing something that turns out not to be so great after all
Example – the dotcom boom of the early 2000s.
Crashes – periods when the economy has huge problems as the problems of the mania period unravel
Kindelberger, Manias, Panics, and Crashes, 1998

Mid 2000s: The world had a lending & investing
maniaDeregulation
Excess savings in developing countries (China, Taiwan) and Japan It’s hard to spend money in a fast-growing
economy
“Easy money” in the developed countriesU.S. government allowed money supply to grow
![Page 15: The Global Capital Market Hill, Chapter 11. Review: Basic Economics Economists teach that the most efficient use of resources can be achieved by free.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062805/5697bfd61a28abf838cadf04/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Banks, most of all in U.S., issued ‘sub-prime’ mortgages
Banks did not want to own them, but packaged pieces of many mortgages into bondsBanks said the mortgages underlying the bonds
wouldn’t all default at onceRating agencies (firms resembling Consumer Reports) agreed
Developing country & Japan investors bought
Eventually the pile got so bad people saw the problems

The Crash of 2008Many banks have so many hard-to-evaluate
investments that no one knows if their assets are worth more than their liabilitiesWould you invest in your bank if your deposits
weren’t government guaranteed?

Governments…Lent huge amounts of money to banks
Took over dying banks
