Abstract We study access to banking and how it is related to banks’ rate of return on investments and the distribution of income. We develop our empirical framework through a theoretical supply-side model of bank deposit services with a consumer population heterogeneous in income. We use this model to show how decreases in the interest rate margin and higher income disparities lead to an increase in the proportion of unbanked. Using localized US household data from 2009, 2011, 2013 and 2015 we find strong empirical evidence for the predictions of the model. We then structurally estimate our model to estimate the value of having a checking account relative to alternative financial services and to quantify the effects of actual changes in the interest rate margin and the distribution of income that occurred in the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis.

The Interest Rate

Financial institutions licensed which were established under the Financial Services Act 2013 and the Moneylenders Act 1951 in Malaysia will provide financial loans at the interest rate charged permitted by-laws and guidelines from the Central Bank of Malaysia to borrowers. However, not all borrowers can afford to pay high and onerous interest rates. Therefore, the law in Malaysia allows for friendly loans, i.e. the lender will provide financial loans assistance to the borrower from of interest or with minimal interest rate. This study will focus on the extent to which the legal issues of the practice of friendly loans in Malaysia and whether the provisions of current laws and policies can protect the interests of both lenders and recipients of friendly loans. This study is qualitative in nature and involves library research. The results of this study will look at aspects of legal issues in order to protect the interests of both lenders and recipients of friendly loans. In fact, Malaysia could also consider creating a special law on friendly loans and regulated by the authorities.

Rate Swap

This paper models the relationship between interest rate swaps and capital in savings and loan associations. The interest rate swap is a way in which financial institutions exchange the flexible rate on their liabilities with a fixed interest rate to hedge themselves from interest rate risk, and therefore reduce the need for a capital cushion. The empirical evidence, however, shows that a small capital cushion reduces the firm's possibility of using interest rate swaps because no partner is willing to engage in a rate swapping contract with a firm that does not have adequate capital and soundness.

The Interest Rate

Access to microcredit can have a beneficial effect on the well-being of low-income households excluded from the traditional banking system. It allows this population to receive affordable financial services to help them to meet their needs and to improve their living conditions. However to provide access to credit, microfinance institutions should ensure not only their social mission but also commercial and financial mission to enable the institution to perpetuate and become self-sufficient. To this end, MFIs (microfinance institutions) must apply an interest rate that covers their costs and risk, while generating profits, Also microentrepreneurs need, to this end, to ensure the profitability of their activities. This paper presents the microfinance sector in Morocco. It focuses then on the interest rate applied by the Moroccan microfinance institutions; it provides also a comparative study between Morocco and other comparable countries in terms of interest rates charged to borrowers. Finally, this article presents a stochastic model of the interest rate in microcredit built in random loan repayment periods and on a real example of the program of loans of microfinance institution in Morocco.

Interest Rate Channel

The paper investigates the mechanism of monetary transmission in Vietnam through different channels - namely the interest rate channel, the exchange rate channel, the asset channel and the credit channel for the period January 1995 - October 2009. This study applies VAR analysis to evaluate the monetary transmission mechanisms to output and price level. To compare the relative importance of different channels for transmitting monetary policy, the paper estimates the impulse response functions and variance decompositions of variables. The empirical results show that the changes in money supply have a significant impact on output rather than price in the short run. The impacts of money supply on price and output are stronger through the exchange rate and credit channels, but however, are weaker through the interest rate channel. The impacts of monetary policy on output and inflation may be erroneous through the equity price channel because of the lack of an established and well-functioning stock market.
