Exchange rates and the information channel of monetary policy

Holtemöller, Oliver; Kriwoluzky, Alexander; Kwak, Boreum - Leibniz-Institut für Wirtschaftsforschung Halle - 2020

We disentangle the effects of monetary policy announcements on real economic variables into an interest rate shock component and a central bank information shock component. We identify both components using changes in interest rate futures and in exchange rates around monetary policy...

Technological innovation and the bank lending channel of monetary policy transmission

Hasan, Iftekhar; Li, Xiang; Takalo, Tuomas - Leibniz-Institut für Wirtschaftsforschung Halle - 2023 - This version: 23.11.2023

Same, but different : testing monetary policy shock measures

Ettmeier, Stephanie; Kriwoluzky, Alexander - Leibniz-Institut für Wirtschaftsforschung Halle - 2017

In this study, we test whether three popular measures for monetary policy, that is, Romer and Romer (2004), Barakchian and Crowe (2013), and Gertler and Karadi (2015), constitute suitable proxy variables for monetary policy shocks. To this end, we employ different test statistics used in the...
