Book Synopsis Financial Structure, Bank Lending Rates, and the Transmission Mechanism of Monetary Policy by : Mr.Carlo Cottarelli
Download or read book Financial Structure, Bank Lending Rates, and the Transmission Mechanism of Monetary Policy written by Mr.Carlo Cottarelli and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1994-03-01 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The stickiness of bank lending rates with respect to money market rates is often regarded as an obstacle to the smooth transmission of monetary policy impulses. Yet, no systematic measure of the different degree of lending rate stickiness across countries has been attempted. This paper provides such a measure. It also relates the different degree of lending rate stickiness to structural features of the financial system, such as the existence of barriers to competition, the degree of development of financial markets, and the ownership structure of the banking system. Thus, the paper provides further evidence on the relationship between structural financial policies and monetary policy, as well as on the relevance of credit markets for the monetary policy transmission mechanism. The role of administered discount rates in speeding up the. adjustment of lending rates is also discussed.
Book Synopsis Inflation Expectations by : Peter J. N. Sinclair
Download or read book Inflation Expectations written by Peter J. N. Sinclair and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-12-16 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inflation is regarded by the many as a menace that damages business and can only make life worse for households. Keeping it low depends critically on ensuring that firms and workers expect it to be low. So expectations of inflation are a key influence on national economic welfare. This collection pulls together a galaxy of world experts (including Roy Batchelor, Richard Curtin and Staffan Linden) on inflation expectations to debate different aspects of the issues involved. The main focus of the volume is on likely inflation developments. A number of factors have led practitioners and academic observers of monetary policy to place increasing emphasis recently on inflation expectations. One is the spread of inflation targeting, invented in New Zealand over 15 years ago, but now encompassing many important economies including Brazil, Canada, Israel and Great Britain. Even more significantly, the European Central Bank, the Bank of Japan and the United States Federal Bank are the leading members of another group of monetary institutions all considering or implementing moves in the same direction. A second is the large reduction in actual inflation that has been observed in most countries over the past decade or so. These considerations underscore the critical – and largely underrecognized - importance of inflation expectations. They emphasize the importance of the issues, and the great need for a volume that offers a clear, systematic treatment of them. This book, under the steely editorship of Peter Sinclair, should prove very important for policy makers and monetary economists alike.

Book Synopsis Financial Structure and Monetary Transmission in Europe by : Gabe J. De Bondt
Download or read book Financial Structure and Monetary Transmission in Europe written by Gabe J. De Bondt and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'I can fully recommend this book to those interested in the transmission process of monetary policy.' - Harry Garretsen, De Economist Due to financial market imperfections it is imperative to analyse the relationship between financial structure and the monetary policy transmission process in Europe to effectively design and implement European monetary policy. Focusing on the years 1980-1995 and providing empirical evidence for six European countries, namely Germany, France, Italy, the UK, Belgium and the Netherlands, the author discusses whether cross-country variations in financial structure have a systematic relationship with inter-country differences in the monetary transmission process. The analysis of this is invaluable as differences in financial structures across EMU countries may hamper the implementation of a common European monetary policy in the future. The conclusion is that some elements of the financial structure are clearly relevant and applicable for European monetary policy and the monetary transmission process in particular.
Book Synopsis Monetary Policy Transmission in Emerging Markets and Developing Economies by : Mr.Luis Brandao-Marques
Download or read book Monetary Policy Transmission in Emerging Markets and Developing Economies written by Mr.Luis Brandao-Marques and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2020-02-21 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Central banks in emerging and developing economies (EMDEs) have been modernizing their monetary policy frameworks, often moving toward inflation targeting (IT). However, questions regarding the strength of monetary policy transmission from interest rates to inflation and output have often stalled progress. We conduct a novel empirical analysis using Jordà’s (2005) approach for 40 EMDEs to shed a light on monetary transmission in these countries. We find that interest rate hikes reduce output growth and inflation, once we explicitly account for the behavior of the exchange rate. Having a modern monetary policy framework—adopting IT and independent and transparent central banks—matters more for monetary transmission than financial development.

Book Synopsis Monetary Policy Transmission in Emerging Asia by : Nasha Ananchotikul
Download or read book Monetary Policy Transmission in Emerging Asia written by Nasha Ananchotikul and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2015-09-28 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given the heavy reliance on bank lending as the main source of financing in most Asian economies, banks could potentially play a pivotal role in monetary policy transmission. However, we find that Asia’s bank lending channel or, more broadly, credit channel of domestic monetary policy is not very strong at the aggregate level. Using bank-level data for nine Asian economies during 2000–2013, we show that heterogeneity of bank characteristics (e.g., ownership type, financial position), degree of foreign bank penetration of the domestic banking sector, and global financial conditions all have a bearing on the response of domestic credit to changes in domestic monetary policy, and may account for the apparently weak credit channel at aggregate level.

Book Synopsis Banking Structure and Monetary Policy Transmission by : Alex Hsu
Download or read book Banking Structure and Monetary Policy Transmission written by Alex Hsu and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We find a significant increase in sensitivities of firm-level investment to monetary policy changes after interstate banking deregulation (IBD) in the U.S. The sensitivities are on average 2% more negative in the years following IBD compared to prior. The intensification of monetary policy potency is through the balance sheet channel of transmission. The result is driven entirely by firms with low external financing premium, characterized by low book leverage and high book-to-market ratio. Consistent with our empirical finding, when the financial accelerator is turned on in a calibrated DSGE model, the investment response to monetary policy shocks is amplified.
Book Synopsis Banking Structure and The Effect of Monetary Policy on Bank Lending by :
Download or read book Banking Structure and The Effect of Monetary Policy on Bank Lending written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation examines the role of bank structure on the effectiveness of monetary policy. Using time series data for U.S. banks, I examine the varying effect of monetary policy on bank lending for the period 1976-2003. It is found that as the banking industry gets more concentrated (through mergers and acquisitions), the effect of monetary policy transmission (through open market operations) is being mitigated. That was the result of the deregulation of the banking sector that took place in the first half of the 1990s which led to an unprecedented wave of consolidation in the banking sector. Then I investigate the lending channel evidence at the bank level. That is, how important is the cross-sectional differences in the way that banks with varying characteristics respond to policy shocks. Three bank characteristics are highlighted: bank size, liquidity and capitalization. It is found that large, more liquid, and well capitalized banks are more impervious to changes in monetary policy than other banks. Real estate loans, agriculture, commercial and industrial (C & I), and consumer loans are analyzed. The size of the bank is found to be most crucial for real estate lending, where small banks are much more sensitive to changes in the federal funds rate compared to large banks. The effect is comparatively less pronounced for C & I and consumer lending and largely disappears when it comes to agriculture lending. Finally, the question of monetary policy asymmetry is examined. As expected, monetary policy has more effect on bank lending when it tightens than when it eases interest rates. This is found to be the case for all types of loans except for real estate loans, where a decline of FFR entices more real estate lending than a rise.
Book Synopsis Monetary Policy in the Presence of Islamic Banking by : Mariam El Hamiani Khatat
Download or read book Monetary Policy in the Presence of Islamic Banking written by Mariam El Hamiani Khatat and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2016-03-21 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper discusses key issues related to the conduct of monetary policy in countries that have Islamic banks. It describes the macrofinancial background and monetary policy frameworks where Islamic banks typically operate, and discusses the monetary transmission mechanism in economies where Islamic and conventional banking coexist. Most economies with Islamic banks also have conventional banks and this calls for a comprehensive approach to monetary policy. At the same time, a dual approach to monetary policy should be considered whenever the Islamic segment of the financial system is not as developed as the conventional one. The paper tries to shed light on potential spillovers between conventional and Islamic financial systems, and proposes specific recommendations on the design of Islamic monetary policy operations and for facilitating monetary transmission through the Islamic financial system.

Book Synopsis Monetary Transmission in Low Income Countries by : Ms.Prachi Mishra
Download or read book Monetary Transmission in Low Income Countries written by Ms.Prachi Mishra and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2010-10-01 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper reviews monetary transmission mechanisms in low-income countries (LICs) to identify aspects of the channels that may operate differently in LICs relative to advanced and emerging economies. Given the weak institutional frameworks, reduced role of securities markets, imperfect competition in the banking sector and the resulting high cost of bank lending to private firms, the traditional channels (interest rate, bank lending, and asset price) are impaired in LICs. The exchange rate channel is also undermined by central bank intervention in the foreign exchange market. These conclusions are supported by review of the institutional frameworks, statistical analysis, and previous literature.

Book Synopsis Negative Interest Rate Policy (NIRP) by : Andreas Jobst
Download or read book Negative Interest Rate Policy (NIRP) written by Andreas Jobst and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2016-08-10 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than two years ago the European Central Bank (ECB) adopted a negative interest rate policy (NIRP) to achieve its price stability objective. Negative interest rates have so far supported easier financial conditions and contributed to a modest expansion in credit, demonstrating that the zero lower bound is less binding than previously thought. However, interest rate cuts also weigh on bank profitability. Substantial rate cuts may at some point outweigh the benefits from higher asset values and stronger aggregate demand. Further monetary accommodation may need to rely more on credit easing and an expansion of the ECB’s balance sheet rather than substantial additional reductions in the policy rate.
