Abstract

[fre] En tant que réseau d’opérateurs à la fois très concentrés et largement interconnectés, le marché monétaire est particulièrement sensible à toute incertitude sur la qualité des bilans de ses intervenants. Il s’est donc transformé au cours des dernières années pour s’adapter aux asymétries d’information et à l’incertitude. La perte de confiance dans la solidité des bilans des établissements financiers consécutive à la crise financière a entraîné une réduction significative des opérations en blanc, le développement d’opérations de collatéralisation et la montée en charge de procédures de sécurisation des échanges et des positions (assurances crédits, compensation des flux, garantie d’une CCP). Ces transformations, accompagnées par la Banque centrale, pour relancer le marché du refinancement ont cependant débouché sur des liens renforcés entre dettes publiques et bilans des banques, au moment où la pression de la discipline des marchés s’est accrue sur les premières. Elles amènent aussi la Banque centrale à prendre des positions plus risquées et à garantir potentiellement une banque (la chambre de compensation) en situation de d’insolvabilité et non pas seulement en situation d’illiquidité. . Classification JEL : E52, E58, G21. [eng] The Money Market : Cash or Financial Securities Market ? . As a highly concentrated and interconnected market of operators, the money market is particularly sensitive to any kind of uncertainty relating to the quality of its actors’ balance sheets. It has therefore changed over the past three years to adapt to both asymmetric information and uncertainty. The loss of confidence in the reliability of the big financial institutions’ balance sheets has entailed a significant decrease in unsecured transactions, the development of collateralization and the strengthening of the security procedures that preside over transactions and positions (loan insurance). These changes aimed to invigorate the refunding market and controlled by the Central Bank strengthen the link between government debt and the banks’ balance sheets at a time when the pressure of market discipline on the former is mounting. They also lead the Central Bank to take riskier positions and potentially bail out a bank (the clearing house) that has proved insolvent, and not only short of liquidity. . Classification JEL : E52, E58, G21.
