A nationwide panic forced President Roosevelt to declare a banking holiday in March 1933. The government reopened banks sequentially using a process that sent noisy signals about banks’ health. New microdata reveals that the public responded to these signals. Deposits at rapidly reopened banks grew quicker than at comparable or stronger banks that reopened even a few days later. The stigma of late reopening shifted funds from stigmatized to lauded banks and among communities that they served. Despite persisting over a decade, the shift had no measurable impact on the rate at which localities recovered from the Great Depression.
1933年3月,美国的金融恐慌迫使罗斯福总统宣布实行银行假期。政府逐步重新开启银行的过程向外界发送了有关银行运营状况的嘈杂信号。新的微观数据显示,公众对这些信号做出了反应。那些迅速重新开业的银行的存款增长速度比几天后才重新营业的银行要快,尽快后者与前者相比资产和经营状况差不多甚至更好。迟开业不仅导致资金从那些被污名化的银行转移到那些被赞扬的银行,并且在它们服务的社区之间转移。尽管这种情况持续了十多年,它对各地经济从大萧条中恢复的速度并没有产生显著的影响。
