It derives values of deposit insurance with both deterministic and stochastic charter values. It is shown that significant charter value can be a main cost to exploit the FDIC's guarantee at a given level of regulatory control. Consequently, studies that fail to allow for charter value tend to understate the costs of a bank's risk-shifting, and tend to overstate the true obligation of the FDIC for an insolvent bank. In the case of stochastic charter value, the correlation between a bank's tangible assets and its charter value is an important factor in determining its fair insurance premium.","abstract_html":"Essay 1 extends the existing theoretical framework to incorporate a bank's charter value and analyze directly its effect on the pricing of deposit insurance.
