A series of (un)fortunate events: Commercial bank interest rates and deposit reallocation during the Great Depression in the Netherlands

The Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract During the global economic crisis of 1929–33, deposits in the Dutch commercial banking sector sharply declined as funds shifted to the government‐guaranteed Post Office Savings Bank and other savings institutions.
