04:15 Reserve ratio rising
06:36 Reserve ratio falling
08:55 Central bank sells gold
11:15 What makes Canada different?
12:30 Is fractional reserve banking the problem?
Here I talk about the reserve ratio of the Canadian banking system from the late '60s, until today. This is the ratio of base money in banks, relative to outstanding demand deposits - systemwide.
The most important question I ask and answer in this video is: Is fractional reserve banking (and low reserve ratios) the source of recessions?
