key principle
  • A single bank can create money (through loans) by the amount of excess reserves
  • Banking system as a while can create money by a multiple (deposition) money multiplier of the initial excess reserves.
Factors that weaken the effectiveness of deposit multiplier:
  1. If banks fail to loan out all of its excess reserves.
  2. If bank customers take their loans in cash rather than in their checking account deposits it creates a cash or currency drain.
