Abstract
Noninterest‐bearing deposits (NIBDs) flow out of U.S. banks in January and February. Banks respond to this seasonal outflow by increasing interest‐bearing deposit (IBD) rates. We document that branch‐level deposit spreads are 4 to 11 basis points higher in January than in December. Increasing rates works as banks replace four‐fifths of the lost NIBDs with IBDs. We also find that, following NIBD outflows, banks resist cutting lending but pass the increases in the cost of funds onto borrowers. Banks do cut lending in response to total deposit outflows, but only in the pre‐crisis period.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
