Introduction
• Deposits are a key element in defining what a banking firm really does and what critical roles it really plays in the economy
• Moreover, deposits provide much of the raw material for making loans and, thus, may represent the ultimate source of profits and growth for a depository institution
• Two key issues every depository institution must deal with in managing the public’s deposits▫ Where can funds be raised at lowest possible cost?▫ How can management ensure that the institution always has
enough deposits to support lending and other services the public demands?
• So challenging has it become today to attract significant new deposits that many financial firms have created a new executive position – chief deposit officer

Interest Rates Offered on Different Types of Deposits • The Composition of Deposits▫ Bankers would generally prefer a high proportion of transaction
deposits (including regular checking or demand accounts) and low-yielding time and savings deposits▫ These accounts are among the least expensive of all sources of funds
and often include a substantial percentage of core deposits
• The Ownership of Deposits▫ The dominant holder of bank deposits inside the United States is
the private sector
• The Cost of Different Deposit Accounts ▫ Managers of depository institutions would prefer to sell only the
cheapest deposits to the public but it is predominantly public preference that determines which types of deposits will be created

Pricing Deposit-Related Services
• In pricing deposit services, management is caught in a dilemma ▫ It needs to pay a high enough interest return to attract and hold
customer funds, but must avoid paying an interest rate so costly it erodes any potential profit margin
• An individual depository institution has little control over its prices in a financial marketplace that approaches perfect competition
▫ It is the marketplace, not the individual financial firm, that ultimately sets prices
▫ Financial institutions, like most other businesses, are price takers, not price makers

Pricing Deposits at Cost Plus Profit Margin
• The Glass-Steagall Act of 1933 – Federal limits on interest rates paid on deposits▫ The Depository Institutions Deregulation Act of 1980
• Deregulation has brought more frequent use of unbundled service pricing as greater competition has raised the average real cost of a deposit for deposit-service providers
• This means that deposits are usually priced separately from other services▫ Cost-plus pricing formula

Using Marginal Cost to Set Interest Rates on Deposits• Conditional Pricing ▫ Where a depository sets up a schedule of fees in which the
customer pays a low fee or no fee if the deposit balance remains above some minimum level, but faces a higher fee if the average balance falls below that minimum
▫ Conditional pricing techniques vary deposit prices based on one or more of these factors1. The number of transactions passing through the account (e.g.,
number of checks written, deposits made, wire transfers, stop-payment orders, or notices of insufficient funds issued)
2. The average balance held in the account over a designated period (usually per month)
3. The maturity of the deposit in days, weeks, months, or years

Using Marginal Cost to Set Interest Rates on Deposits• Conditional Pricing ▫Deposit pricing policy is sensitive to at least two factors:
1. The types of customers each depository institution plans to serve
2. The cost that serving different types of depositors will present to the offering institution

Pricing Based on the Total Customer Relationship and Choosing a Depository• Related to the idea of targeting the best customers for
special treatment is the notion of pricing deposits according to the number of services the customer uses▫Customers who purchase two or more services may be
granted lower deposit fees compared to the fees charged customers having only a limited relationship to the offering institution
• In theory, relationship pricing promotes greater customer loyalty and makes the customer less sensitive to the prices posted on services offered by competing financial firms

Basic (Lifeline) Banking: Key Services for Low-Income Customers• Should every adult citizen be guaranteed access to certain basic
financial services, such as a checking account or personal loan? • A recent survey found that a substantial segment of the U.S.
population is either▫ “Unbanked” ▫ No deposits or loans of any kind
▫ “Underbanked”▫ Having access to some critical services but not others
• Among the “underbanked” are those families relying on expensive payday loans, check cashing firms, pawnshops, and money order services to pay their bills
• Racial and ethnic minorities are substantially more likely than the general population to be “underbanked”
