6. Shadow Banking: Crisis Experience
Off-balance-sheet commitments by banks
– Banks’ ABCP conduits and special-interest vehicles
– Commitments in the repo market
– Too much risk retention by banks in securitization, rather than too
little
Constant-Net-Asset-Value Money Market Mutual Funds
– Borderline to misselling of investment products
Complex mortgage securitization malpractice
NOT non-bank financial intermediaries
– Hedge funds, private equity, loan funds
NOT ‘‘normal’’ securitization
