| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Using a panel of bi-annual bank data covering the full universe of Japanese commercial banks over a 15-year period, this study analyzes the effectiveness of unconventional monetary policy, specifically quantitative easing, on the bank lending channel of monetary policy transmission. The findings suggest that Japan’s unconventional monetary policynworked: there is a bank lending channel of monetary policy transmission in Japan. Our results are robust to the inclusion of time fixed effects and generalized method of moments analysis.
However, contrary to the predictions of banking theory, the effects of QE seem to come mostly through undercapitalized banks. These findings suggest that bank balance sheet problems continue to be important factors impairing the credit channel.
