Description: |
We build a model to answer two sets of questions. (1) What motivates banks to offer wealth management products (WMP)? (2) If a bank is actively selling WMPs, what characteristics does it exhibit? We fi nd there are at least three possible reasons for a bank to actively off er WMPs: (i)a bank is making high-return loans; (ii) a bank is able to sell WMPs with interest rates lower than its competitors; or (iii) a bank has liquidity troubles. These theoretical hypotheses are also confirmed with empirical studies. |
