Christophe Blot et al., « Beyond the Interest Rate Pass-through: Monetary Policy and Banks Interest Rates during the Effective Lower Bound », HAL SHS (Sciences de l’Homme et de la Société), ID : 10670/1.e25c6f...
We investigate whether monetary policy influences the retail interest rates in the Euro Areawhen the policy rate reaches the effective lower bound. We estimate a panel-Error CorrectionModel that accounts for potential heterogeneities in the transmission of monetary policy. Theanalysis disentangles alternative non-standard measures implemented by the ECB. We findthat unconventional measures have influenced banking interest rates beyond the pass-throughof the current and expected policy rate. These effects are driven by liquidity provisions in corecountries and by covered bond purchase programmes in peripheral ones.
