If the value of bank assets is insufficient to meet the debt oligations, bank’s shareholders and debtholhers will face losses of wealth. Debt financing under limited liability creates conflict of interest between shareholders and debtholders.

Then, this paper examines the relationship between assets value and deposit liabilities. The model’s results is shown that the change in the possibility of bankruptcy banking firm will adopt different deposit liabilities under different object.
