This paper examines the impact of the June 2014 switch to negative interest rates (NIRs) by the European Central Bank (ECB) on the operation of the eurozone interest-rate pass-through (IRPT) mechanism. We focus on the relationship between major central-bank policy rates and selected money-market rates. That link is identified as the first stage of the IRPT mechanism and its dynamics are rates i.e., the policy rate is partially pass-through to retail rates and other interest rates. Second, pass-through differs considerably within and outside the country . borrowers who have other financing choices. As a result, when interest rates decline, pass-through of policy rates to various market rates may be imperfect, which could impede monetary policy transmission. And as bank margins tend to compress, this, in turn, may adversely affect banks’ ability to lend as it erodes their capital positions. When market interest rates rise, so do bank funding costs. Therefore, the effect of higher interest rates on banks’ net interest margins—the difference between banks’ interest income and interest expense expressed as a percentage of average earning assets—is ambiguous. Trends in Interest Rates and Net Interest Margins Given that movements in the fed funds rate are closely linked to movements in short-term interest rates, but less so to movements in long-term interest rates, changes in the policy rate are likely to impact the yield curve. 4 The next figure compares the fed funds rate with the difference between 10-year and one-year Treasury bond rates.

Second, pass-through differs considerably within and outside the country . Exchange rate developments can play an important role in shaping the outlook for HICP inflation. As a change in the exchange rate can affect consumer prices with considerable delays and as the impact can depend on the economic situation at the time, assessing the exchange rate pass-through requires constant monitoring. The Interest Rate Pass-Through in Malaysia: An Analysis on Asymmetric Adjustment MAGGIE MAY-JEAN TANG, CHIN-HONG PUAH AND VENUS KHIM-SEN LIEW Faculty of Economics and Business, Universiti Malaysia Sarawak, Kota Samarahan, Sarawak, Malaysia ABSTRACT The interest rate channel is the primary and most important mechanism for policymakers. An incomplete interest rate pass-through distorts the transmission process through the credit, the interest rate, or the exchange rate channels enormously. Therefore, it is necessary to estimate the interest rate pass-through in monetary policy. As a result many monetary policy studies are concentrated on this theme. Lending rates are a key element in the transmission of monetary impulses to the real economy, even more so in bank-based financial systems such as the Austrian one. This article examines whether the turbulence in the financial markets and the – These pass-through effects become stronger as policy rates move deeper into negative territory. Banks offering negative rates provide more credit than other banks suggesting that the transmission mechanism of monetary policy is not hampered. The negative interest rate policy (NIRP)
