Transmission of Interest Rates: the Case of the Czech Republic
Original language description
The paper examines the interest rate pass-through in the Czech Republic. Specifically, I focus on the pass-through from the main monetary policy rate to consumer, mortgage, SME and corporate lending rates in period from January 2004 to September 2016. The empirical literature suggests that the pass-through varies across countries and across type of loans. After the global financial crisis, however, researchers mostly confirm a lesser pass-through. The goal of this paper is to find out whether spill-over effects of the global financial crisis have somehow influenced the interest rate pass-through in the Czech Republic. In addition, I test the role of credit risk and government bond yields in the setting of lending rates. To do so, I employ the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) modelling approach. The baseline results suggest that the interest rate pass-through is complete for all lending rates. Those results, however, neglect the effect of the global financial crisis. In order to address this concern, I create a shift crisis dummy variable. The results of the model with the crisis dummy variable show that after the crisis, the efficiency of the pass-through significantly dropped for mortgage and SME lending rates but not for corporate lending rates, for which the pass-through remained complete.
