It doesn’t do anything really productive, but it makes sure that the productive bits can function. Like the oil in an engine that does no real work, but makes sure that the moving parts do not grind to a halt. It is very hard to ascribe a value to these things, but they are certainly very valuable.

Horrors! Without some means of declaring what, if any value, a bank creates, how is an economist supposed to be paid for that declaration?
