Why the Banking Industry Is Regulated• Banks hold money. Banks provide credit.
• The government focuses on information problems and liquidity risk.
• Bank run: many depositors withdraw their deposits and the bank’s funds are exhausted.
• Contagion: spreading of bad news about one bank to include other banks.
• Bankers’ private information limits depositors’ ability to sort out weak banks.

Government Intervention in the Banking Industry
• Federal Reserve was created to serve as a lender of last resort and issue currency.
Since 1863 limits on banks’ ability to open branches have been imposed.
• Numerous bank failures led to the creation of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.– Moral hazard problems caused by bank insurance
increased the need for monitoring.
• Interest rate ceilings (Regulation Q) were intended to buttress bank profits.
