  • Experiences of the National Deposit Insurance Fund on the Age Composition of Depositors and on the Distribution of Deposit Amounts*
    Financial and Economic Review, Vol. 16 Issue 2., June 2017, pp. 28–39. Experiences of the National Deposit Insurance Fund on the Age Composition of Depositors and on the Distribution of Deposit Amounts* Katalin Csaba-Kalló – Balázs Vajai In the span of two years (2014 and 2015), ten credit institutions were liquidated in Hungary. Depositors were reimbursed by the National Deposit Insurance Fund (NDIF) in the total amount of HUF 219 billion. This is the first time that the depositor database of the liquidated credit institutions is subject to research. The basic features of the compensation data are presented with the assistance of descriptive statistics tools in the dimensions of the paid-out compensation amounts and the age of depositors. We confirm the hypothesis that the paid-out compensation amounts follow an extreme value distribution, more specifically, a Weibull distribution. The distribution shows that above HUF 5 million, the number of reimbursed depositors grew only moderately, while the paid-out compensation amounts increased significantly. Moreover, in making a comparison between the age distribution of reimbursed depositors and the age distribution of the Hungarian population we found that the savings deposited with the liquidated credit institutions are consistent with Modigliani’s life-cycle hypothesis. Journal of Economic Literature (JEL) codes: D14, D18, G21 Keywords: household saving/personal finance, consumer protection, banks 1. Introduction and motivation In 2015, the Hungarian household sector held about 20 per cent of its financial assets (HUF 9,000 billion) in bank deposits and bank bonds (Boldizsár – Koroknai 2016). This substantial volume allotted to bank financing underlines the key significance of deposit insurance as a tool for building and maintaining confidence in the banking sector.

  • The Great Depression: an Overview by David C
    Introduction The Great Depression: An Overview by David C. Wheelock Why should students learn about the Great Depression? Our grandparents and great-grandparents lived through these tough times, but you may think that you should focus on more recent episodes in Ameri- can life. In this essay, I hope to convince you that the Great Depression is worthy of your interest and deserves attention in economics, social studies and history courses. One reason to study the Great Depression is that it was by far the worst economic catastrophe of the 20th century and, perhaps, the worst in our nation’s history. Between 1929 and 1933, the quantity of goods and services produced in the United States fell by one-third, the unemployment rate soared to 25 percent of the labor force, the stock market lost 80 percent of its value and some 7,000 banks failed. At the store, the price of chicken fell from 38 cents a pound to 12 cents, the price of eggs dropped from 50 cents a dozen to just over 13 cents, and the price of gasoline fell from 10 cents a gallon to less than a nickel. Still, many families went hungry, and few could afford to own a car. Another reason to study the Great Depression is that the sheer magnitude of the economic collapse— and the fact that it involved every aspect of our economy and every region of our country—makes this event a great vehicle for teaching important economic concepts. You can learn about inflation and defla- tion, Gross Domestic Product (GDP), and unemployment by comparing the Depression with more recent experiences.

The raw material of the series is drawn mainly from IMF Working Papers, technical papers produced by Fund staff members and visiting scholars, as well as from policy-related research papers. This mate- rial is refined for the general readership by editing and partial redrafting. The following paper draws on material originally contained in IMF Working Paper 96/83, “Deposit Insurance: Obtaining the Benefits and Avoiding the Pitfalls,” by Gillian Garcia of the IMF’s Monetary and Exchange Affairs Department. Alfred Imhoff prepared the present version. Readers interested in the original Working Paper may purchase a copy from IMF Publication Services ($7.00). iii ©International Monetary Fund.
