Asymmetries in the Vietnamese lending central bank's policy-related rate spread were documented. Empirical results revealed that the spread adjusts to the threshold faster when the central bank's policy-related rates decrease relative to the lending rates than when the central bank's...

The present paper investigates the pass-through mechanism between market interest rates and bank interest rates using a panel of French banks based on new ESCB harmonised bank interest rate statistics (MIR: Monetary Interest Rates). The data are extracted from new individual contracts on a...

This paper investigates the effectiveness of the interest rate channel in three small open economies with rigid exchange rate regimes in South East Europe – Bulgaria, Croatia and Macedonia – during the period 2000–2010. Specifically, we examine the size and speed of adjustment of bank...

In this study, we seek to better understand the interest rate pass-through in five Central and Eastern European countries - the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia, the CEE-5. Our pass-through estimates for several retail rates are generally lower than those reported in the...

This paper analyses the cross-country heterogeneity in retail bank lending rates in the euro area and presents newly developed pass-through models that account for the riskiness of borrowers, the balance sheet constraints of lenders and sovereign debt tensions affecting interest rate-setting...

This paper empirically examines the pass-through of the Central Bank of Nigeria policy rate to commercial banks' retail rates. The study covers the pre-liberalization (1962M01-1987M07) and post-liberalization (1987M08-2020M09) periods, and em- plys asymmetric cointegration and error-correction...

This paper investigates the consistency of asymmetric interest rate past-trough (IRPT) using a nonlinear autoregressive distributed lag framework. Superior to the previous studies, this study exploits the historical profile of Indonesia to enrich the analysis. Asian Financial Crisis (AFC) which...
