We examine the dynamics of eleven different deposit rates for a panel of over 2,500 branches of about 900 depository institutions observed weekly over ten years. We replicate previous work showing that rates are downwards-flexible and upwards-sticky, and show that a simple menu cost model can...

It is shown that a program of attracting the banking term deposits essentially depends on the term structure of new deposits. Solving the linear integral Volterra equations with difference kernel, it was received the explicit analytical solution for the program of attracting new deposits with an...
