Sunspot bank runs in competitive versus monopolistic banking systems

This paper extends the Diamond and Dybvig (1983) model to compare two banking economies: one with a competitive banking system and another with a monopolistic one. It is shown that a competitive banking system is more fragile than a monopolistic one in the sense that the parameter set stipulating that a bank run equilibrium exists in the competitive banking system dominates the set in the monopolistic one.
