Abstract: This paper examines the sign-dependent international spillovers of Federal Reserve and European Central Bank monetary policy shocks. Using a consistent high-frequency identification of pure monetary policy shocks across 44 advanced and non-advanced economies and the methodology of Caravello and Martinez-Bruera, 2024, we document strong asymmetries in international transmission. Linear specifications mask these effects: contractionary shocks generate large and significant deteriorations in financial conditions, economic activity, and international trade abroad, while expansionary shocks yield little to no measurable improvement. Our results are robust across samples, identification strategies, and the framework proposed by Ben Zeev et al., 2023.
