There is not a dependency on deposits in order create loans. This is false. Banks can make loans to the extend of demand for loans at the banks terms. Deposits have nothing to do with it in terms of funding. The bank must be in compliance with capital requirements and reserve requirement in order to be in the federal reserve system . As Mosler says (founder of MMT) The loan guy does not call the deposit guy at the bank before making a loan.
