system will most likely carry substantial socio-economic costs. Secondly, the financial system, especially the banking system, is vulnerable to external shocks. Basically, depositors relate this to the fact that banks fund illiquid loans with liquid deposits, which makes them vulnerable to loss
Why Do We Have an Interbank Money Market?
"... This paper presents an interbank market model with a heterogeneous banking sector. We show that banks participate in the interbank market because they differ in marginal costs of obtaining funds from the European Central Bank. Our model shows that this heterogeneity implies intermediation by banks w ..."

with relatively low marginal costs. The resulting positive spread between the interbank market rate and the central bank rate is determined by transaction costs in the interbank market, total liquidity needs of the banking sector, costs of obtaining funds from the central bank, and the distribution of the latter

Interbanks loans and CDS contracts have relatively lower incentive costs than swaps, but the former has the largest distress costs without renegotiations
