Kim, Chi Hyun; Other, Lars - 2019
We examine the credit channel of monetary policy from 2000 to 2015 in the Euro Area using daily monetary policy shock and credit risk measures in an autoregressive distributed lag model. We find that an expansionary monetary policy shock leads to a short-run increase in the credit risk of...

Currency futures' risk premia and risk factors
Bernoth, Kerstin; Hagen, Jürgen von; Vries, Casper G. de - 2020
The use of futures exchange contracts instead of forwards completes the maturity spectrum of the correlation between the spot yield and the premium. We find that the forward premium puzzle (FFP) depends significantly on the maturity horizon of the futures contract and the choice of sampling...

The forward premium puzzle and latent factors day by day
Bernoth, Kerstin; Hagen, Jürgen von; Vries, Casper G. de - 2010
We use futures instead of forward rates to study the complete maturity spectrum of the forward premium puzzle from two days to six months. At short maturities the slope coefficient is positive, but these turn negative as the maturity increases to the monthly level. Futures data allow us to...
