Three factors drove this change. First, motivated financial professionals convinced states to adopt the “prudent man rule,” a legal investment standard that emphasized professional management and maximum financial returns. Second, declining bond yields during World War II led public pension managers to reconceptualize the political goals of pension investment, from balancing retiree returns against low-cost public infrastructure, to maximizing employee benefits by achieving maximum returns in financial markets. Third, public officials hired private asset managers to undertake new investment strategies. These professionals then used their influence to pursue further pension liberalization. Ultimately, US financialization was not a break, but a continuous process through which government officials intentionally used financial markets to enhance public social provision.","PeriodicalId":46636,"journal":{"name":"REVIEW OF SOCIAL ECONOMY","volume":"2014 19","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135813406","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Postal banking and US cash transfer programs: a solution to insufficient financial infrastructure?","authors":"Melanie G. Long, Steven Pressman","doi":"10.1080/00346764.2023.2259362","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/00346764.2023.2259362","url":null,"abstract":"AbstractDirect cash transfers to households during the COVID-19 pandemic, including relief checks and Child Tax Credit payments, were delayed by weeks for recipients without bank accounts and were not received by many non-filers who lacked the time or resources to complete necessary paperwork. A postal banking system has the potential to expand access to financial infrastructure and enable the rapid distribution of resources to households in need during economic downturns – often the same households that are currently excluded from the financial system. This paper examines the history of the US Postal Savings System and the feasibility of a return to postal banking using evidence on the socioeconomic and spatial patterns of financial exclusion. We find that postal banks would be well positioned to compete with both alternative and conventional financial institutions, address issues with physical branch access, and improve outreach to vulnerable populations.KEYWORDS: Postal bankingpayment mechanismsfinancial inclusioncash transfersCOVID-19 pandemicJEL CODES: E65G21G28H53 Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Data availability statementData sharing is not applicable to this article as no new data were created or analyzed in this study.Notes1 https://www.fiscal.treasury.gov/eft/ (Last Accessed August 21, 2023).2 The corresponding country-level data are available in Tables A1 and A2 in Appendix A.3 Importantly, there is wide variation in account ownership and financial exclusion rates within global banking models, linked to specifics of the financial and social context of each country that fall beyond the scope of this paper. For instance, more than 80% of respondents in Japan hold an account in the Yucho network of postal banks. In Italy, 17% of respondents hold post accounts alone, yet it continues to have one of the highest levels of financial exclusion in Europe (16.9%). Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia has an extraordinarily large unbanked population among economies without postal banking – over 50% – due to restrictions on women’s access to accounts at financial institutions. Despite this variability, the same qualitative comparisons across the five postal banking categories hold regardless of whether averages or medians are used.4 Market income excludes government transfers but includes wages and salaries, self-employment income, non-tax investment income, dividends, capital gains, alimony payments, child support, Social Security and other pension income, and miscellaneous sources of income not listed above. In theory, Social Security is a transfer program that would be of interest for this study. However, the SCF does not disaggregate Social Security income from other sources of retirement income, and the evidence cited in Section 1 indicates that Social Security generally does not suffer from challenges related to outreach and disbursement.5 Net worth or wealth is the difference between assets (checking a","PeriodicalId":46636,"journal":{"name":"REVIEW OF SOCIAL ECONOMY","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135814489","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
