NBP source francs for private banks. Experts Office of the President have an idea to secure gold – Dziennik.pl

In June, a team of experts Office of the President is to present a new proposal restructuring of foreign currency loans . Feedback from team members that the security of the whole process would take care NBP . Could provide currency – usually Swiss francs – commercial banks. You will need to meet its obligations to other institutions.

Normal loans are funded by customer deposits, but Polish banks They do not collect deposits in francs. So it had to borrow from other banks, often their foreign exchanges. Simply put, then they sold it for gold, which pay out to customers. Conversion of loans at a rate lower than the market would mean that the banks will not be enough money from the repayment of customers to buy as much francs, as they need to pay your debt. Would have to spend more than dostałyby in the form of repayments, and so arise loss. KNF , reviewing the first presidential draft francs, has calculated it at approx. 70 billion zł. It and the second problem: massive conversion would mean a large demand for the currency in a short time.

From the technical side, the banks will have to buy Francs to give them to those who finance them, or terminate hedging the exchange rate. At the same time banks’ assets (loans) will change in the zloty. At this scale of operations could affect the currency market. Franki could then “substitute” the central bank: first enter into a contract with the Swiss National Bank (SNB) to exchange euros for francs and then sell them Polish banks in exchange for gold. The whole operation will not necessarily require the physical transfer of funds, only swap – says DGP Marek Dietl of the Sobieski Institute, a member of the team of experts in the Office of the President. Reserves at the same time, it was his opinion.

Solution resembles an agreement of November 2009. Between the NBP and the SNB. Swiss National Bank sent the currency of our bank in exchange for the euro, and the NBP could transmit it to commercial banks in exchange for gold. This was to eliminate the risk of financing, among others, foreign currency loans at the beginning of the crisis. The solution, in which the Swiss currency further distributed to commercial banks from the SNB via NBP, has another advantage: it does not involve foreign exchange reserves of the Polish central bank. Without regulating the NBP in this way, and so he could be forced to reach for the provision and supply of francs commercial banks, if the high demand in the market lacked liquidity. This would have negative consequences for the economy.
