Bank Funding Cost and Liquidity Supply Regimes

No 854, BIS Working Papers from Bank for International Settlements

Abstract: Designing operations for liquidity support requires central banks to properly measure and monitor bank funding risk in real time. We construct a new indicator of rollover risk for banks, called the forward funding spread. By accounting for market participants' expectations of how funding costs will evolve over time, it serves as a better signal of the change in the stance of monetary policy than the usual spot InterBank Offered Rate-Overnight Interest Swap spread. Our indicator helps to contrast three liquidity regimes, which coincide with the levels of excess liquidity supplied by central banks.
