By employing a direct ex-ante measure of risk-taking and estimating the simultaneous equations of loan … approval and loan amount, we are the first to provide quantitative evidence of the impact of monetary policy on the risk …

Di Pace, Federico; Görtz, Christoph - 2021

Using a structural vector autoregression, we document that a contractionary monetary policy shock triggers a decline in durable and non-durable outputs as well as a contraction in bank equity and a rise in the excess bond premium. The latter points to an important transmission channel of...
