Banking has historically been built on face-to-face interactions between bankers and their clients. But as the industry has gone digital, Assistant Professor Naz Koont wonders if we’ve removed something critical from the transaction. #finance stanford.io/4gS0SSe

The ease of online banking has big implications for financial stability, argue @Columbia Ph.D. student @NazKoont, @Columbia_Biz's Tano Santos, and our Faculty Director, @ChicagoBooth's @zingales in a new paper. More in @chicagoboothrev, by Andrea Riquier

Excited to share these results on how #digitalbanking is reducing the stickiness of deposits! Important for understanding how this digital transformation alters the potency of monetary policy + implications for banking regulations that are based on the idea of sticky deposits.
Bank regulators have always assumed bank deposits are ‘sticky,’ but the advent of #digitalbanking is changing that. New research by @zingales (@ChicagoBooth @StiglerCenter), @NazKoont & Tano Santos (@Columbia_Biz) focuses on new dangers of ‘bank walks.’

Interesting thread and blog post. Theme: mobile apps make deposits less sticky. Untraditional but helpful take on “transaction costs”. Need to include clicks, time, and other forms of sludge.

Bank regulators assume that deposits are sticky, meaning they don’t move around much. But digital banking is changing that. New research, described in a blog (link below) by Koont, Santos, Zingales shows how mobile apps make deposits less stable.

Should we re-think bank regulation in this age of digitalization after the SVB collapse? Very insightful new analysis from @NazKoont, Tano Santos and @zingales #proudmom promarket.org/2023/04/04/des…

Many thanks to the @FinancialTimes for featuring our paper on ETFs joined with @NazKoont, Lubos Pastor, and Yao Zeng. on.ft.com/417E4qw

Surprised to find that passive bond ETFs are everything but passive. They deviate from their index all the time to reduce arbitrage costs for authorized participants (big dealer banks). Seems that liquidity transformation does not come for free, even for ETFs!
In order to be passive and liquid, ETFs must be active, from @nazkoont, @yiming__ma, Lubos Pastor, and Yao Zeng nber.org/papers/w30039
