Abstract

ZUSAMMENFASSUNG Der Aufsatz bespricht die Rolle des Bankensystems im Rahmen makroökonomi‐scher Modelle. Es wird argumentiert, dass die herkömmlichen Modelle ‐ soweit sie ein Bankensystem überhaupt berücksichtigen ‐ dieser Roue nicht völlig gerecht werden. Ein Modell wird dargestellt, welches die Existenz eines Bankensystems erklären und rechtfertigen kann, indem es seinen produktiven Beitrag explizit aufzeigt, und welches damit eine Basis gibt ‐ im Rahmen eines Gleichgewichts‐modells ‐ für eine Analyse der volkswirtschaftlichen Auswirkungen von Mass‐nahmen, welche Grösse und Struktur des Bankensystems beeinflussen (wie bei‐spielsweise die Einführung gesetzlicher Mindestreserven). SUMMARY The paper discusses the role of the banking system in macroeconomic models. It is argued that the standard models—to the extent that they do include a banking system at all—do not describe this role in a completely adequate manner. A model is presented which does explicitly take into account the productive contribution of a banking system, and which thus can explain and justify its existence, as well as provide us with a basis—in the context of an equilibrium system—for an analysis of the social costs (or benefits) of actions influencing size and structure of the banking system (such as, for example, the introduction of legal reserve requirements). RÉSUMÉ L'article discute le rôle du système bancaire dans le cadre des modèles macro‐économiques. L'auteur argumente que les modèles traditionnels ‐ même s'ils considèrent ce rôle ‐ ne lui rendent pas la justice voulue. II présente un modèle capable d'expliquer et de justifier un système bancaire en démontrant explicite‐ment sa contribution productive. Dans le cadre d'un modèle èquilibré il crée ainsi un point de départ pour l'analyse des conséquences économiques de mesures qui définissent volume et structure du système bancaire (exemple: introduction de réserves minimales obligatoires).
