15. Liability- Asset
transformation function
 Asset transformation is the process of
creating a new asset (loan)
from liabilities (deposits) with different
characteristics by converting small
denomination, immediately available
and relatively risk free bank deposits
into loans

16. size transformation function
of financial system
 A type of transformation that is
performed by banks and other
depositary institutions whereby small
deposits by different types of depositors
are pooled in order to issue large loans
to seekers of funds

17. risk transformation function
of financial system
 Risk transformation is about how to
mitigate risk and in parallel develop
competitive advantages. ... Risk may
include financial risk, security/safety-
related risks, uncertainty,
and risk through action or lack of action.

18. maturity transformation
function of financial system
 Maturity transformation is the practice
by financial institutions of borrowing

lend money out.

19. Equilibrium in Financial Markets
 Equilibrium in financial markets– usually determined by
assuming perfect competition
 Financial markets are said to be perfect when
 A large number of savers and investors operate in markets
 The savers and investors are rational
 All operators in the market are well-informed and information is
freely available to all of them
 There are no transaction costs
 The financial assets are infinitely divisible
 The participants in markets have homogenous expectations
 There are no taxes
 Under these ideal conditions, the financial markets attain
equilibrium position when supply and demand are equal
 the interest rate at which the supply curve and
demand curve intersect with each other

20. EQUILIBRIUM CONTD.,
 The equilibrium in financial markets is
established when the expected demand
for funds (credit) for short-term and long-
term investments matches with the
planned supply of funds generated out
of saving and credit creation.
 Supply of funds
○ Aggregate savings by household, business
and govt. sectors

21. EQUILIBRIUM CONTD.,
 Demand of funds
○ Investment in fixed and circulating (working)
capital
○ Demand for consumer durables
○ Investment in housing
○ Current level of capital stock
○ Capacity utilization
○ Desired capital stock
○ Availability of internal funds
○ Cost of funds
○ Technological changes

24. Financial System and Economic
Development
1.Finance is not important at all
Ex: environment- friendly, appropriate
technology.
2.Finance is very important.
3. Cautionary View:
Economic Growth – growth results
predominantly not from the increase in labor
and capital but from the technical progress,
which is external  money and finance and
the policies about them cannot contribute to the
growth process.

25. A well developed financial system can
contribute significantly to the acceleration of
economic development through –
 Technical progress is endogenous ( human and
physical capital are its important sources 
dependent on financial system)
 Good financial system  rate of capital formation
(finance available in time, in adequate quantity and
on favorable terms)  economic development
 Financial system enhances the efficiency of the
function of medium of exchange  helps in
economic development.
