Description
Summary:The term structure of interest rates and m e phenomenon of bank runs are widely bur separately studied in me literature. In this paper, we introduce a simple term structure of interest rates in a bank runs model. By allowing depositors to use a symmetric mixed strategy the probability of bank runs can be derived. Our simulation shows mat a low short-term real interest rate or a high long- term real interest rate would raise the probability of bank runs. This result is consistent with recent empirical findings.
