For identification, we exploit the 2011 reform of the investment income tax in Italy that induced households to substitute bank bonds with deposits.

Additional evidence indicates that these results are consistent with theories emphasizing the demandable nature of the deposit contract rather than theories stressing the stability of deposit funding due to government guarantees.
