Answer: D. U.S. Treasury securities and Discount loans to banks.
Explanation: When examining the Fed's balance sheet, in most periods, the two most important assets are U.S. Treasury securities and Discount loans to banks. The Fed's balance sheet balance sheet includes a large number of distinct assets and liabilities containing a great deal of information about the scale and scope of its operations. Of these assets the U.S. Treasury securities and Discount loans to banks are paramount.
U.S Treasury securities are such as bills, notes and bonds issued by the U.S. government viewed as having virtually no credit risk. As such, they are debt obligations of the U.S. government.
Discount loans to banks are direct short term loans provided to banks by the Fed to meet temporary shortages of liquidity caused by internal or external disruptions.
Answer: Market Efficiency
Explanation:
It is important that the Government as a regulator should not get involved in acts that would protect individual institutions from failure because that would defeat the whole purpose of a competitive industry.
If a government is known to directly involve itself in the protection of institutions from failure, efficiency in institutions may become low because of the lack of fear of failure as companies believe that should they run into bad times, they will simply be bailed out by the government so there is no need for them to maintain a competitive edge.
This can lead to a situation where we have companies performing sub optimally in an economy which can only act to reduce the Economic growth of a country.
Government institutions usually have such backing and in a lot of countries are prone to failure. Look at the Bamangwato Concessions Limited (BCL) mine in Botswana for instance that kept failing and refusing to improve it's efficiency because they could always run back to the government for a bailout. Their position eventually became so untenable that bankruptcy was the only option.
