This study investigates exchange rates and bank lending as the transmission channels for Japan’s Quantitative Easing Policy (QEP) during 2001–2006. Using a Time Varying Parameter-VAR model and monthly data to analyze the dynamism of the QEP, this study is the first to show that the exchange rate channel was the effective QEP transmission channel after around 2005, while the bank lending channel was inactive.

Quantitative Importance

We study the monetary-transmission mechanism with a data set that includes quarterly observations of every insured U.S. commercial bank from 1976 to 1993. We find that the impact of monetary policy on lending is stronger for banks with less liquid balance sheets—i.e., banks with lower ratios of securities to assets. Moreover, this pattern is largely attributable to the smaller banks, those in the bottom 95 percent of the size distribution. Our results support the existence of a “bank lending channel” of monetary transmission, though they do not allow us to make precise statements about its quantitative importance. (JEL E44, E52, G32)
