Financial intermediaries Reduce transaction costs (due to
economies of scale and lower information costs)
Allow for differences in the desired lending and borrowing time horizons
Risk sharing (asset transformation) lowers risk through diversification
![Page 12: Overview of the Financial System The Economics of Money, Banking, and Financial Markets Mishkin, 7th ed. Chapter 2](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56649e875503460f94b8b425/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Asymmetric information Moral hazard
The existence of a contract causes one party to alter their behavior in a manner detrimental to the other party
Adverse selection Individuals who are willing to accept a
financial (or other) contract are of lower “quality” than a typical individual in the population
![Page 13: Overview of the Financial System The Economics of Money, Banking, and Financial Markets Mishkin, 7th ed. Chapter 2](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081421/56649e875503460f94b8b425/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Asymmetric information: Adverse selection,and Moral hazard
Adverse Selection1. Before transaction occurs2. Potential borrowers most likely to produce adverse
outcomes are ones most likely to seek loans and be selected
Moral Hazard1. After transaction occurs2. Hazard that borrower has incentives to engage in
undesirable (immoral) activities making it more likely that won’t pay loan back
Financial intermediaries reduce adverse selection and moral hazard problems, enabling them to make profits

assets and activities, deposit insurance, and anti-competitive measures
