Question:
In 1960, federal regulations prohibited banks from paying interest on checking accounts. Today, banks are legally allowed to pay interest on checking accounts, yet the value of checking accounts has shrunk from more than 50% of commercial bank liabilities in 1960 to less than 12%.
Because checking accounts now pay interest, shouldn’t they have become more popular with households rather than less popular?
