Raghuram G. Rajan

Douglas W. Diamond

The National Bureau of Economic Research, Inc. (NBER) presents an abstract of the June 2000 working paper entitled "Banks, Short Term Debt and Financial Crises: Theory, Policy Implications and Applications," written by Douglas W. Diamond and Raghuram G. Rajan. The full text of the paper may be purchased online. This paper argues that while the empirical association between a financial institution's short-term borrowing and susceptibility to crises may exist, the direction of causality is often the opposite to the one traditionally suggested by commentators.
