Bank lending and the stock market's response to monetary policy shocks

Johann Scharler

International Review of Economics & Finance, 2008, vol. 17, issue 3, 425-435

Abstract: This paper explores whether a limited participation model modified to include features of the bank lending channel can account for the empirically observed reaction of stock market returns to monetary policy shocks. When calibrated to match characteristics of US data, the model generates responses that broadly match the empirical counterparts. The results also suggest, that the higher exposure of bank-dependent firms to liquidity shocks generates substantial heterogeneity of the responses across firms.
