Abstract: Abstract This paper examines the effects of monetary authorities in Europe and US unconventional policy announcements on emerging stock markets (BRICS). An event study methodology is used to analyse the impact on the sectors of interest: consumer, financials, and materials. The analysed abnormal returns are significant during some events and are also dependent on the announcing central bank authority, as well as the sector and country investigated, linking the announcements to spillover effects in those countries. In terms of differing magnitude effects regarding the announcements of the central banks, no significant pattern was found. However, magnitudes seem to be unexpectedly, but not always significantly, higher during FED statements.
