A credit creation theory of banking

 Yves here. This is deceptively important post. We’ve regularly mentioned that mainstream economists and the monetary economists at the Fed and presumably many other central banks adhere to the “loanable funds” theory of investment and lending. That model posits that loans come from a pre-existing pool of savings. The credit view, which the Bank of England, and even Greenspan and Bernanke have effectively admitted is how things really work, is that banks create loans out of thin air, and simultaneously, the related deposit. The check on this process is the cost of money (the central bank’s policy rate). This model, unlike the loanable funds story, explains how central bank policy influences credit and money supply growth.

Bhadrakumar on Saudi-Iran rapprochement

 In Indian Punchline “ The agreement announced on Friday in Beijing regarding the normalisation of diplomatic relations between Saudi Arabia and Iran and the reopening of their embassies is a historic event. It goes way beyond an issue of Saudi-Iranian relations. China’s mediation signifies that we are witnessing a profound shift of the tectonic plates in the geopolitics of the 21st century. ”

 A reality check for Modi Govt’s G20 ambitions

“A plausible explanation could be that after being threatened with a regime change orchestrated by the western intelligence — starting with the BBC documentary, followed by the Hindenburg report, and culminating in George Soros’s prognosis of a “democratic revival” in India — the ruling elite panicked.”
