What we do
I Incorporate banks and banking panics in simple macro model
I Broad goal:
I Develop framework to understand dynamics of recent financialcrisis
I Specific goal:
I Characterize sudden/discrete nature of financial collapse in fall2008
I No observable large exogenous shockI Gorton (2010), Bernanke (2010): Bank runs at heart of
collapse
I Explore qualitatively and quantitatively:
I Spillover of crisis to real activityI Role of monetary policy and macro-prudential policy
Motivation
GDP Growth, Credit Spreads, and Broker Liabilities during the Financial Crisis

Model Overview
I Simple New Keynesian model with investment
I Banks intermediate funds between households and productivecapital
I Hold imperfectly liquid long term assets and issue short termdebt →
I Vulnerable to panic failure of depositors to roll over short termdebt
I Based on GK (2015) and GKP (2016)I In turn based on Cole/Kehoe(2001) self-fulfilling sovereign
debt
I Households may directly finance capital, but less efficient atmargin than banks
Evolution and Financing of Capital
I End of period capital St vs. beginning Kt
St = Γ( ItKt
)Kt + (1− δ)Kt
Γ′ > 0, Γ′′ < 0
I St → Kt+1:
Kt+1 = ξt+1St
ξt+1 ≡ ”capital quality” shock
I Sbt intermediated by banks; Sh
t directly held by households
St = Sbt + Sh
t
Household and Bank intermediation
I If Sht /St > γ, (utility) cost to household of direct finance
ς(Sht ,St) = χ
2 (Sht
St− γ)2St
I Marginal rate of return on intermediated capital
Rbt+1 = ξt+1
Zt+1+(1−δ)Qt+1
Qt
I Marginal rate of return on directly held capital
Rht+1 = 1

BankersI Bankers exit with exogenous probability 1− σI Objective
Vt = EtΛt,t+1[(1− σ)nt+1 + σVt+1]
I Net worth nt accumulated via retained earnings - no newequity issues
nt+1 = Rbt+1Qts
bt − Rt+1dt if no run
= 0 if run
I Balance sheetQts
bt = dt + nt
Deposit Contract
Rt+1 ≡ deposit rate; Rt+1 ≡ return on depositspt ≡ run probability; xt+1 < 1 ≡ recovery rate
I Deposit contract: (One period)
Rt+1 =
{Rt+1 with prob. 1− ptxt+1Rt+1 with prob. pt
Limits to Bank Arbitrage
I Moral Hazard Problem:
I After banker borrows funds at t, it may divert fraction θ ofassets for personal use.
I If bank diverts, creditors can
I recover the residual funds andI shut the bank down.
I ⇒ Incentive constraint (IC)
θQtsbt ≤ Vt
Solution
I Endogenous leverage constraint:
Qtsbt ≤ φtnt
φt depends on aggregate state only
I Note: nt ≤ 0⇒ bank cannot operate (key for run equilbria)
Bank Runs
I Self-fulfilling ”bank run” equilibrium (i.e. rollover crisis)possible iff:
I A depositor believes that if other households do not roll overtheir deposits, the depositor will lose money by rolling over.
I Condition met iff banks’ net worth nt goes to zero during a run
I nt = 0 → bank would divert any new deposit
Existence of Bank Run Equilibrium
I Forced liquidation → Q∗t < Qt
Q∗t = Et{(Λt,t+1ξt+1(Zt+1 + (1− δ)Qt+1)} − χ(Sht
St− γ)

St= 1.
I Run equilibrium exists if
xt =ξt(Zt + (1− δ)Q∗t )Sb

RtDt−1< 1
or equivalently if ξt < ξRt
xt(ξRt
)=ξRt (Zt + (1− δ)Q∗t )Sb

RtDt−1= 1
Run Equilibrium
I Run at t + 1 if : (i) A run equilibrium exists (ii) A sunspotoccurs
I Assume sunspot occurs with probability κ.
I → The time t probability of a run at t + 1 is
pt = Pr t{ξt+1 < ξRt+1} · κ
Production, Pricing and Monetary Policy (Standard)
I Production, resource constraint and Q relation for investment
Yt = AKαt L
1−αt
Yt = Ct + It + GQt = Φ( It
Kt)
I Monopolistically comp. producers with quadratic costs ofnominal price adjustment (Rotemberg)
I Monetary policy: simple Taylor rule
