Unequal and Unstable: Income Inequality and Bank Risk

Journal of Money, Credit and Banking, EarlyView.
Abstract We present a model in which income inequality interacts with banks' risk‐taking incentives, generating financial instability. Competition and deposit insurance cause some banks to lend to lower‐income borrowers at underpriced rates, creating “risky banks” that fail in downturns, while others lend to higher‐income borrowers and avoid default ...
