What makes a run on deposits such a difficult challenge for a financial firm? In case a lot of clients decide to withdraw money simultaneously, banks may lack liquidity required for lending activities and other business processes. Such fears may be spread easily among clients of banks in the process of a run on deposits. Thus, a deposit run can become a self-fulfilling prophecy even if a bank is highly capitalized.
