摘要
The paper presents a model of banks as clearinghouses of private debt where money is used as the means of payment. Implications of the model include: i) the private provision of banknotes or a discount window may be needed to avoid the insufficient debt clearing that results from an inflexible currency stock; and ii) an uncontrolled total money stock may result in a multiplicity of equilibria including an inflationary banknote over-issue.
