Monetary and financial analysis

In our monetary and financial analysis we look at how our monetary policy is transmitted to the economy via channels such as credit, bank lending, risk-taking and asset pricing. Our analysis assigns an important role to monetary and financial indicators which, together with other variables, allow us to assess:

  • possible changes in monetary policy transmission (for example related to structural factors such as a rise in non-bank financial intermediation); or
  • impairments in transmission (for example owing to fragmentation or market stress).

The monetary and financial analysis also provides for a more systematic evaluation of any longer-term build-up of financial imbalances and their impact on the economy and inflation. It thus recognises that financial stability is a precondition for price stability.

Moreover, the analysis looks at the extent to which macroprudential measures mitigate possible financial stability risks that are relevant from a monetary policy perspective. The monetary and financial analysis thus recognises that financial stability is a precondition for price stability.

We continuously refine and develop the tools and instruments we use for monetary analysis.
