A MODEL OF FINANCIAL MARKET LIQUIDITY BASED ON INTERMEDIARY CAPITAL
构建了一个受资本约束的金融中介提供市场流动性的模型,发现市场流动性随中介资本水平上升,并分析了中介的稳定与不稳定作用。
We present a model of financial market liquidity provided by financially constrained intermediaries. We show that market liquidity increases with the level of intermediary capital.We also characterize conditions under which intermediaries play a stabilizing or destabilizing role in markets. Finally, we sketch a number of areas, including welfare and public policy, on which the model can shed light.
