The Mathematics of Fractional Reserve Banking

in mathematics •  7 years ago 

The balance sheet of the bank always has to balance - remember the bank lends to the same people it borrows from (as for every lender there is a borrower) so that's impossible. The more money the bank makes, the more the equity holders and deposit holders get. It's a circle that balances out to 0.
