For each model we precise he heoreical esimaio ad we propose a origial algorihm for simulaios. Usig a ime series daa of marke rae, ieral rae ad o-mauriy deposis, we ru hese models ad we esimae he opimal parameers. Based o resuls ad daa, we propose a mixed model ad origial relaios for esimaig he parameers. Afer a decisio upo a beer algorihm ad model, we calculae he real values of demad deposis. Some coclusios abou he characerisic feaure of o-mauriy deposis were formulaes a he ed of he paper. Key-Words: No-mauriy deposis, ieres rae, adjusme models, correlaio, sesiiviy, risk. No-mauriy deposis No-mauriy deposis (NMD) such as sigh, curre accous, savigs, demad deposis accous ec are a major source of fuds for all radiioal Baks. The characerisic feaure for hese kid of deposis is ha hey have o saed coracual mauriy ad he balace of hese fuds ca icrease or decrease hroughou he day wihou ay warig (alhough i pracice he balace is quie sable) as he deposiors have always he possibiliy o add or wihdraw fuds a ay ime (he embedded opios ha clies may exercise) a o pealy.

Oe ca ofe observe ha he volume of a NMD posiio flucuaes as clies reac o chages i he cusomer rae ad he relaive araciveess of aleraive ivesme opporuiies (see Fig. ): -whe ieres raes rise, he oal balace of NMD eds o fall as cusomers become more careful i sweepig heir fuds io log-erm ivesmes o lock up he high level of yields (wihdrawal). - whe ieres raes are low, NMD becomes more profiable compared o aleraive shor-erm ivesmes.

As a resul, high o-mauriy deposi volumes may acually reduce reprisig risk ad moderae overall ieres rae risk (see [7]). The cash ISSN: ISBN:

Fig.4 Pareo disribuio for he NMD. Esimaio of NMD balaces Fig. Volume of a NMD posiio, perceived value The sable fracio of he curre balace is called core level (see Fig.3) ad is modeled as a permae balace (log-erm ouflow) while he volaile fracio is viewed as overigh moey ad serves as a buffer for volume flucuaios (see [6]). As is observed i oher cases, he resuls obaied for he value of core deposis varies subsaially by isiuio, depedig o he isiuio s supply of deposis ad abiliy o reai deposis (see [9]). This is impora Fig. 3 Esimaed core level for fiacial decisios i order o make a disribuio over several years of he oal value ha ca be used for ivesig proposal (Fig. 4). We obai ha 44% could firs be ivesed. The reches ha will follow for ivesme depeds o firs ivesme (see [8]). We shall discuss differe saisical models i order o esimae NMD balaces. Le D be he value of a o-mauriy deposi a ime. To refer o he liear regressio ad log-ormal diffusio models, we iroduce he discree variables y = log( D ) ad y = log( D / D ). The Liear regressio model is characerized by: y = a + b( ) = α + β, ( y y)( ) =, a = ( i ), b =. () i= ( ) =, The Log-ormal diffusio model, used for fuure balace (of liquidiy erm srucure), is based o he followig igredies: y = α + β + σε, () wih parameers α, β beig deermied from a liear regressio o y, (ε ) Gaussia (whie) oise erm, σ = Var( ε ) he volailiy of y ime series, ε ~ N(0, σ ). If we cosider a q-cofidece ierval, he ε = Φ ( q). Therefore y = log( V ( )) = α + β + σ Φ ( q), (3) where q is p h quaile from N (0,), give by relaio q = z α /, such ha Φ ( q ) = α /, α = p. The cofidece ierval, for he umber of selecio from a populaio N( µ, σ) is deermied by: σ σ ( y z α /, y + z α / ). (4) ISSN: ISBN:

Hybrid model for NMD balaces Afer a qualiaive sudy of all he models, as well as he daa used, we cosider ha a mixed model will esimae bes he evoluio of omauriy deposis. Thus, we propose a origial model: movig average model for ieres rae ad, respecively for marke rae; a weigh model for y wih coribuios from a model i which ieres rae ad marke rae are idepede variables, ad a auoregressive model, y = ρ ( y ) JDir + ( ρ)( y ) AR.
