Abstract

Using bank‐level information on lending rates, we study the transmission of conventional and unconventional monetary policy measures in the euro area via shifts in the supply of credit. For conventional operations, we find that the transmission is stronger for weaker banks, in line with the standard predictions of the bank‐lending channel literature. For nonstandard measures, instead, the monetary accommodation was transmitted more by banks with stronger capital and funding positions and characterized by a higher exposure to government bonds.
