China s Interest Rate Challenge

America s Interest Rate Puzzle

How much government debt is too much is an open question, because tolerance for public debt is highly dependent on prevailing perceptions. The risk premium attached to the interest rate is the critical variable once it starts rising, the existing rate of deficit financing becomes unsustainable.

But this is what Alan Greenspan encouraged Americans to do. When normal mortgages did not prime the pump enough, he encouraged them to take out variable rate mortgages at a time when interest rates had nowhere to go but up.

A ten year Treasury has a nominal interest rate of less than 2 . Because the inflation rate is also about 2 , this implies a negative real interest rate, which is confirmed by the interest rate of 0.6 on ten year Treasury Inflation Protected Securities (TIPS), which adjust interest and principal payments for inflation.

The second adverse effect of deflation is to raise the real interest rate, that is, the difference between the nominal interest rate and the rate of inflation. When prices are rising, the real interest rate is less than the nominal rate since the borrower repays with dollars that are worth less.

The problem now is that the natural interest rate that is, the liquid safe nominal interest rate on short term US Treasury securities is less than zero. Thus, the central bank cannot push the market interest rate there.

The fact that the Provident Fund humanitarian loans do not carry any interest rate (commercial or otherwise) renders the effective interest rate method for amortization inapplicable, as there are no interest deductions from the repayment instalments as required by the effective rate method.

Again, this theme is about variable cost, variable living.

But judging from a short term perspective, the further downward movement of the long term interest rate requires phased risk exposure and the downward movement of capital interest rate.

0 means that this variable is not a reference 1 means that this variable is a reference to another variable.
