DIRECT- involves only one contract between lender & borrower- called dis-intermediation- E.g. you loan money to your neighbor
SEMI-DIRECT- Involves essentially one contract but . . .- A middle party is needed to execute it- E.g. you buy Intel stock through Charles Schwab from your neighbor
INDIRECT- Involves two contracts - Financial intermediary is in the middle- E.g. you deposit money in the bank which loans it to your neighbor
FINANCIAL INTERMEDIARIES

FUNCTIONS OF FIN. INTERMEDIARIES
Maturity & Liquidity IntermediationE.g. You deposit $ in savings account, which is loaned out in a 30-yr fixed-rate mortgage to your neighbor; even though the loan won’t be paid off for many years, yet you can get your money at any time. Financial intermediaries absorb liquidity risk!
Interest-rate and Inflation Risk IntermediationE.g. Bank absorbs risk from borrower locking into fixed rate for 30 years.
Repackaging SizeE.g. Bank can re-package the size of a security to the level desired. Most of us don’t have $100,000 sitting around to lend to our neighbor, so many of us poor investors can pool our $.
Diversification & Default RiskE.g. You deposit $ in savings account, pooled together with other investors, so that no one investor is lending to only one borrower. Depository institutions also offer government deposit insurance. In short, financial intermediaries absorb default risk.
Efficiencies & SpecializationE.g. Bank is better able to invest in mortgages (legal issues, credit approval, etc.). Since the bank has specialized in this, it has economies of scale (full-time lawyers, appraisers, credit specialists, etc.)
Clearing House for PaymentsE.g. financial intermediaries make possible EFT, credit/debit cards, checks, etc. which wouldn’t exist otherwise

Bank Participation in Financial Conglomerates
Impact of the Financial Services Modernization Act (1999) Prompted by the Citicorp-Traveler’s merger Gave more freedom to merge and offer a range of
financial services Insurance Securities services
Many banks are now subsidiaries of a financial conglomerate

Bank Participation in Financial Conglomerates
Benefits of diversified services To Individuals: they can obtain all their
financial services at a single place (one stop shop)
Deposits Loans Investing (brokerage) Insurance
To Businesses: they can obtain loans, issue stocks and bonds, and have their pension fund managed by the same institution

Bank Participation in Financial Conglomerates
Benefits of diversified services to the financial institution Reduce reliance on demand for single
service Economies of scale and scope Diversification (service and geographical)
may result in less risk Generate new business
Risks of conglomerates: too big to failNOTE: there are bills currently before Congress
now that would split big banks and their diversified services. This is an attempt to prevent the “too-big-to-fail” syndrome.

Bank Sources of Funds
Bank capital Represents amount of equity stockholders have Obtained from issuing stock and retaining earnings The more capital, the more “safe” the bank is because
capital is a buffer to absorb future losses Banks often resist building up too much capital because it
lowers the return on equity (ROE). Stated another way, the more leverage the bank, the more ROE is magnified.
Capital is usually approx. 6-12% of assets but it really depends on risk-based capital requirement and size of bank
Primary capital (stock & RE) is of higher quality than secondary capital (subordinated notes & bonds)
Copyright© 2002 Thomson Publishing. All rights reserved.
A major reason banks failed during the financial crisis because of inadequate capital.Basel III (or the Third Basel Accord) is a global regulatory standard on bank capital adequacy, stress testing, and market liquidity risk agreed upon by the members of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision in 2010–11, and scheduled to be introduced from 2013 until 2018. (Basel is a town in Switzerland where they meet.) Basel III strengthens bank capital and introduces new regs on liquidity and leverage.

Baker Boyer Bank
In the 1800s, Walla Walla was the largest city in the Northwest and the financial and cultural center of the NW region (and it almost became the state capitol).
Baker Boyer Bank (BBB) was founded in 1869, twenty years before Washington became a state. The bank really started as a mercantile store where gold miners would keep their gold in the store’s safe. As much as $40,000 in gold would be left in the safe for more than a year, and though it wasn't common to give or ask for receipts, no losses were ever suffered.
At one point in 1911, the BBB building was the tallest building west of the Mississippi River.
During the banking crisis of the 1930s, most banks were forced to close, at least temporarily. But BBB was determined to remain open, even though it had been ordered closed. BBB allowed customers to use the back door of the bank until banks were allowed to reopen.
BBB is still partly owned by the families of the original founders, Dorsey Baker and John Boyer. Today the CEO is the great-great-granddaughter of Dorsey Baker.
BBB remains a community bank with 8 branches in WW, Tri-Cities, Milton-Freewater, and Yakima Megan Clubb,

Banner Bank
Banner Bank (BB) started in the 1890 (one year after Washington gained statehood and two years before the founding of WWU).
For most of its history, it was known as First Washington Bank and remained a small, community-based bank in Eastern Washington.
In 1995, the bank did an IPO and become a public company traded on the Nasdaq (ticker of BANR).
Since then, the bank has pursued a path of tremendous growth through mergers/acquisitions.
Today it has expanded to 93 branches in 31 counties throughout WA, OR and ID.
In 2000, the bank changed its name to Banner Bank.
