1 The I Theory of Money Markus K. Brunnermeier & Yuliy Sannikov Princeton University CSEF-IGIER Symposium Capri, June 24 th, 2015

2 Motivation Framework to study monetary and financial stability Interaction between monetary and macroprudential policy Connect theory of value and theory of money Intermediation (credit) Excessive leverage and liquidity mismatch Inside money as store of value Demand for money rises with endogenous volatility In downturns, intermediaries create less inside money Endogenous money multiplier = f(capitalization of critical sector) Value of money goes up Disinflation spiral a la Fisher (1933) Fire-sales of assets iquidity spiral Flight to safety Time-varying risk premium and endogenous volatility dynamics

33 Formal model: capital & output Technologies b a Physical capital K t - Capital share ψ t 1 ψ t Output goods Y b b t = k t Y a a substitutes t = k t ggregate good (CES) - Consumed or invested - numeraire Price of goods Y t = P t b = Y t b (s 1)/s + 1 s/(s 1) 2 Y a (s 1)/s t Y t Y t b 1/s Imperfect P t a = 1 2 Y t Y t a 1/s Model setup in paper is more general: Y t = ψ t K t

34 Formal model: risk When k t is employed in sector a by agent j dk t = Φ ι t δ k t dt + σ a k t dz t a + σ j k t d Z t a Investment rate (per unit of k t ) sectorial idiosyncratic independent Brownian motions (fundamental cash flow risk) Φ ι t is increasing and concave, e.g. log[ κι t + 1 /κ] ll dz are independent of each other Intermediaries can diversify within sector b Face no idiosyncratic risk Households cannot become intermediaries or vice versa

35 sset returns on money Money: fixed supply in baseline model, total value p t K t Return = capital gains (no dividend/interest in baseline model) If dp t /p t = μ p p t dt + σ t dzt, dk t /K t = Φ ι t δ dt + 1 ψ t σ a dz a t + ψ t σ b b dz t (σ t K ) T dz t dr t M = Φ ι t δ + μ t p + σ t p T σt K dt + σ t p + σt K dz t π t = p t q t +p t fraction of wealth in form of money

43 Overview No monetary economics Fixed outside money supply mplification/endogenous risk through iquidity spiral Disinflationary spiral asset side of intermediaries balance sheet liability side Monetary policy side: Money vs. Credit view (via helicopter drop) Wealth shifts by affecting relative price between ong-term bond Short-term money Risk transfers reduce endogenous aggregate risk Macroprudential policy

44 Outside Money Pass through Bonds b t K t 1 χ t ψ t q t K t Inside Money (deposits) Net worth N t dverse shock value of risky claims drops Monetary policy response: cut short-term interest rate Value of long-term bonds rises - stealth recapitalization iquidity & Deflationary Spirals are mitigated

45 Effects of policy Effect on the value of money (liquid assets) helps agents hedge idiosyncratic risks, but distorts investment We saw this in the toy model with one sector Redistribution of aggregate risk, mitigates risk that an essential sector can become undercapitalized ffects earnings distribution, rents that different sectors get in equilibrium

46 Monetary policy and endogenous risk Intermediaries risk (borrow to scale up) η x t (σ b 1 b σ K t ) σ t = 1 ψ η η π η π/η amplification fundamental risk + ψ(1 χ) η η + π η 1 ψ b t p t B η B(η)/η mitigation Example: b t B η p t B η = α t π η π(1 π) α(η) Intuition: with right monetary policy bond price B(η) rises as η drops stealth recapitalization Can reduce liquidity and disinflationary spiral

51 Monetary policy in the limit full risk sharing of all aggregate risk ggregate risk sharing makes q determinisitic ike in benchmark toy model Excessive k-investment Too high q (pecuniary externality) ower capital return Endogenous risk corrects pecuniary externality

52 Overview No monetary economics Fixed outside money supply mplification/endogenous risk through iquidity spiral Disinflationary spiral asset side of intermediaries balance sheet liability side Monetary policy Wealth shifts by affecting relative price between ong-term bond Short-term money Risk transfers reduce endogenous aggregate risk Macroprudential policy Directly affect portfolio positions

55 MacroPru policy: Welfare frontier Stabilize intermediaries net worth and earnings Control the value of money to allow HH insure idiosyncratic risk (investment distortions still exists, otherwise can get 1 st best 30 optimal macroprudential policy that removes endogenous risk household welfare no policy intermediary welfare

56 Conclusion Unified macro model to analyze Financial stability Monetary stability - iquidity spiral - Fisher disinflation spiral Exogenous risk & Sector specific idiosyncratic Endogenous risk Time varying risk premia flight to safety Capitalization of intermediaries is key state variable Monetary policy rule Risk transfer to undercapitalized critical sectors Income/wealth effects are crucial instead of substitution effect Reduces endogenous risk better aggregate risk sharing Self-defeating in equilibrium excessive idiosyncratic risk taking Macro-prudential policies MacroPru + MoPo to achieve superior welfare optimum
