2 CHAPTER 1 An Overview of Financial Markets and Institutions

3 The Financial System Provides for efficient flow of funds from saving to investment by bringing savers and borrowers together via financial markets and financial institutions. Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 3

4 Exhibit 1.1 Transfer of Funds Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 4

5 Basic components of the financial system: Markets and institutions. Financial markets are markets for financial instruments, also called financial claims or securities. Financial institutions (also called financial intermediaries) facilitate flows of funds from savers to borrowers. Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 5

6 Economic units with financial needs: Households, Businesses, Governments. Households supply labor, demand products, and save for the future. Businesses demand labor, supply products, and invest in productive assets. Governments collect taxes and provide public goods (e.g. education, defense). Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 6

7 Budget positions creating financial needs of economic units: Surplus or deficit. Surplus spending units ( SSUs) have income for the period that exceeds spending, resulting in savings. Other words for SSU are saver, lender, or investor. Most SSUs are households. Deficit spending units (DSUs) have spending for the period that exceeds income. Another word for DSU is borrower. Most DSUs are businesses or governments. Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 7

8 Financial claims arise as SSUs lend to DSUs. SSU s claim against DSU is liability to DSU and asset to SSU. One s liability is another s asset: What is payable by one is receivable by another. Assets arising this way are financial assets. The financial system balances - total financial assets equal total liabilities. Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 8

9 Marketability: Ease with which a financial asset may be sold to another SSU. Ability to resell financial claims makes them more liquid by giving SSUs choices: Match maturity of claim to planned investment period; Buy claim with longer maturity, but sell at end of period; or Buy claim with shorter maturity, then reinvest. Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 9

10 Direct Financing: The simplest way for funds to flow. DSU and SSU find each other and bargain SSU transfers funds directly to DSU DSU issues claim directly to SSU Preferences of both must match as to- -Amount -Maturity -Risk -Liquidity Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 10

11 Direct Financing: efficient for large transactions if preferences match. DSUs and SSUs seize the day DSUs fund desired projects immediately. SSUs earn timely returns on savings. Direct markets are wholesale markets. Transactions typically $1 million or more. Institutional arrangements common. Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 11

12 Institutional arrangements common in direct finance. Private placements are simplest. Investment bankers underwrite new issues of securities. Brokers and dealers bring buyers and sellers of direct claims together. Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 12

13 Private placements are simplest. DSU sells whole security issue to one investor or investor group. Advantages include speed and low transactions costs. Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 13

14 Investment bankers underwrite new issues of securities. Buy entire issues of securities from DSUs Find SSUs to buy securities at higher price Profit from difference - underwriting spread Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 14

15 Brokers and dealers Brokers buy or sell at best possible price for their clients. Dealers make markets by carrying inventories of securities. buy at bid price; sell at ask price Bid-ask spread is dealer s gross profit Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 15

16 Problem with direct financing: DSUs and SSUs cannot always match preferences. Not every SSU can afford wholesale denominations of $1 million or more. DSUs and SSUs often prefer different terms to maturity. Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 16

17 Indirect Financing ( Financial Intermediation ): Financial intermediaries transform claims: raise funds by issuing claims to SSUs; use funds to buy claims issued by DSUs. Claims can have unmatched characteristics: SSU has claim against intermediary; Intermediary has claim against DSU. Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 17

18 Financial intermediaries transform claims Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 18

19 Familiar forms of financial intermediation Commercial Banking Insurance Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 19

20 Commercial Banks Take deposits and make loans - Depositors are SSUs Borrowers are DSUs. Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 20

21 Insurance Companies Issue policies, collect premiums, and invest in stocks and bonds. Policyholders are SSUs; Businesses or governments are DSUs. Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 21

22 Benefits of financial intermediation are a primary rationale for the financial system. Financial intermediaries lower the cost of financial services as they pursue profit. Financial intermediaries perform 5 basic services as they transform claims. Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 22

23 Intermediaries lower the cost of financial services as they pursue profit. 3 sources of comparative advantage: Economies of scale Transaction cost control Risk management expertise Competition pulls interest rates down Financing less costly Projects have higher NPVs Investment in real assets boosts economy Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 23

24 Intermediaries perform 5 basic services as they transform claims. Denomination Divisibility pool savings of many small SSUs into large investments. Currency Transformation buy and sell financial claims denominated in various currencies. Maturity Flexibility Offer different ranges of maturities to both DSUs and SSUs. Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 24

25 Intermediation Services, cont. Credit Risk Diversification Assume credit risks of DSUs; spread risk over many different types of DSUs. Liquidity Give SSUs and DSUs different choices about when, to what extent, and for how long to commit to financial relationships. Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 25

26 4 Major types of financial intermediaries transform claims to meet various needs. Deposit-type or Depository Institutions Contractual Savings Institutions Investment Funds Other Institutions Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 26

31 Contractual Institutions bring long-term savers and borrowers together. Life Insurance Companies Casualty Insurance Companies Pension Funds Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 31

32 Life Insurance Companies insure against lost income at death. Policyholders pay premiums, which are pooled and invested in stocks, bonds, and mortgages Investment earnings cover the costs and reward the risks of the insurance company Investments are liquidated to pay benefits. Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 32

33 Casualty Insurance Companies cover property against loss or damage. Sources and uses of funds resemble those of life insurers, but Casualty claims are not as predictable as death claims; so More assets are in short-term, easily marketable investments Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 33

34 Pension Funds help workers plan for retirement. Workers and/or employers make contributions, which are pooled and invested in stocks, bonds, and mortgages Net of administrative costs, investment earnings are reinvested and compounded Retirement benefits replace paychecks (at least partly) Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 34

35 Investment Funds help small investors share the benefits of large investments. Mutual Funds provide intermediated access to various capital markets shareholders money is pooled and invested in stocks, bonds, or other securities according to some objective Money Market Mutual Funds ( MMMFs ) are uninsured substitutes for deposit accounts MMMFs buy money market instruments wholesale, pay investors interest, and allow limited check-writing Copyright 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 35
