The welfare costs of bank regulation by deposit rate ceilings

Author

  • Weinrich, Gerd

Abstract

In a transparent and parsimonious moral hazard setting, various types of inefficiencies of deposit rate ceilings are identified. Welfare with ceilings may be lower than welfare without these and a more risky environment may render deposit rate ceilings impotent.
