Money Market

• What is money?Without it, modern economies could not function

Historical Development of Money• No Money: Barter Economy (goods for goods)• Money as a medium of Exchange:

Goods Money Goods

Lydian Coin (Western Turkey), 700-637 B.C.• How did all start? (shells, barley, peppercorns, gold, and silver)

History of money

– Precious metals, (Metals objects were introduced as money around 5000 B.C. By 700 BC, the Lydians became the first in the Western world to make coins.)

– Paper money (fully) backed by gold,– Paper money fractionally backed by gold,– Fiat money,

Properties of a Good Medium of Exchange

1. Acceptable 2. Standardized quality (diamonds, clear or not)3. Durable (fish, strawberry, do they last)

4. Valuable relative to its weight (cement)5. Divisible (diamonds, pay for bread)

The Functions of Money

1) Medium of Exchange2) Unit of account3) Store of Value New York Note, 1776

4) Standard of deferred payments

Precious metals are easily divisible into standardized coins and do not lose value when made into smaller units : COINS

Initial stages of development of money

• Coins, • “Bank Notes” start of Paper money,– Fully backed by gold.– Fractionally backed by gold,

• Fiat Money What is the supply? (more efficient)

Why is money important?

• Using standardized coins or paper bills made it easier to determine prices of goods and services,

• the amount of money in the system also plays an important role in setting prices.

Inflation or deflation

Money Supply

Delegated to Central Banks

Can the Central Bank change MS?

• YES!!!

• HOW? – With some tools known as monetary policy tools.

(Tools are instruments that a policy maker can change in order to influence the workings of an economy)

Monetary Policy Tools

1. Discount Rate,2. Reserve Requirement ratio,3. Open Market Operations.

How do they work? Need to look at how banking system work and money changes hands…

Commercial Banks

• Banks are profit seeking institutions.– They accept deposits,– They give loans

• Public Banks (Ziraat, Halk …) and Private banks (IsBank, Akbank, Garanti

…)

Commercial Banks Balance SheetsAssets Liabilities

Reserves Deposits

Loans Short and long term borrowing

Building and Equipment Other Liabilities

Other Assets

Total Liabilities

Stock holders equities

Total Assets Total liabilities + stock holders’ equities

Rules that commercial banks follow:

• Hold the required reserve ratio determined by Central Bank.

If required reserve ratio (rr) is 15%, then in equilibrium

(Reserves/ Deposits)*100 ratio=15 %.

e.g. If Total Deposits are 2000 billion TL, then reserves need to be 300 billion TL.

(Reserves/ Deposits)*100 ratio=(300/2000)*100=15 %

A new deposit comes into Bank One

Change Assets Change LiabilitiesReserves +1000 Deposits +1000

Loans

Total Assets +1000 Total Liabilities +1000

Bank One uses this new deposits in giving out new loans

(Reserves/deposits)*100= 15 %. Result: Creates a new loan equal to 850.

Change Assets Change Liabilities

Reserves + 150 Deposits +1000

Loans + 850

Total Assets +1000 Total Liabilities +1000

The new loan comes back to Bank Two Change Assets Change LiabilitiesReserves +850 Deposits +850

Loans

Total Assets +850 Total Liabilities +850

Change Assets Change LiabilitiesReserves +127.5 (850*0.15) Deposits +850

Loans +722.5 (850*0.85)

Total Assets +850 Total Liabilities +850

New loans of 722.5 TL are created by Bank Two

This will repeat ∞ times

• Total change in the deposits: 1000+ (0.85*1000)+(0.85*1000)2+(0.85*1000)3+…

(0.85*1000)∞
