The Quality of Eligible Collateral, Central Bank Losses and Monetary Stability

An Empirical Analysis

This book investigates to what extent the quality of eligible collateral is able to explain inflation. Addressing this question, hypotheses derived from the "Theory of Property Economics" by Heinsohn & Steiger are tested. Data are collected using a questionnaire, answered by central banks. An index of the quality of eligible collateral is constructed. Regression analyses are performed based on a sample of 62 countries for the period 1990 to 2003. A negative, robust and statistically significant correlation between inflation and the quality of eligible collateral is found. Central bank independence cannot contribute to the explanation of inflation. The result supports the theory of Heinsohn & Steiger: Securitisation of central bank lending is crucial for price stability.

policy debate.223 He develops a simple framework to assess central bank
capital adequacy and, using capital structure data for a broad sample of central

The Central Bank and the Financial System

As economic advisor to the Bank of England for many years, C. A. E. Goodhart is uniquely positioned to assess the role of the central bank in the modern financial system. This book brings together twenty-one of his previously published articles dealing with the changing functions of central banks over time, recent efforts to maintain price stability, and debates over specific financial regulation proposals in the UK. Although the current day-to-day operations of central banks are subject to continuous comment and frequent criticism, their structural role within the economic system as a whole has generally been accepted without much question, despite several attempts by economists in recent decades to challenge the value of the institution. C. A. E. Goodhart brings his knowledge of both the theoretical arguments and the actual working of central banks to bear in these essays. Part I looks at the general purposes and functions of central banks within the financial system and their evolution over time. Part II concentrates on the current objectives and operations of central banks, and the maintenance of price stability in particular. Part III analyzes the broader issues of financial regulation.

9.1 EARLY HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT When the first Central Banks were
founded, for example the Swedish Riksbank, the Bank of England, the Banque
de France, they were neither expected, nor intended, to perform the functions of a

The European Central Bank, Institutional Aspects

The impending establishment of the European Central Bank (ECB) brings a dramatic transition: the introduction of a single European Community (EC) currency. The European Central Bank describes and analyses, from the perspective of the General Counsel of the Dutch Central Bank, the objectives and tasks entrusted to the ECB and the instruments with which the ECB has been endowed in order to carry out its responsibilities. In the context of this discussion of the institutional features of the ECB, the author: describes the structure of the European System of Central Banks (ESCB), of which the ECB is the nucleus; emphasises how the future European monetary authority is firmly rooted in the legal framework of European Community law; focuses on the institutional arrangements set out in the Treaty establishing the European Community (EC Treaty) and their effect on ECB practical functions; analyses the consequences of a monetary split between members of the monetary union and States remaining outside; and proposes solutions to the difficulties which such a division may entail for the functioning of the European Community. The structuring of EC monetary authority as a part of a community based on respect for the law forms a constant theme throughout The European Central Bank. This work's critical, in-depth analysis; its thought provoking conclusions and summaries of problematic issues; and its clear, grounded structure all make it a particularly useful, scholarly examination of an important development in European and international law.

Theoretical background a) Economic and legal writing In economic and
institutional writing the issue of central bank independence has been discussed

The Bank of Canada's Monetary Policy Framework - Have Recent Changes Enhanced Central Bank Credibility? (EPub)

In recent years the Bank of Canada has made important changes in the way it conducts monetary policy. In particular, the bank has adopted explicit inflation targets and introduced significant changes to its operational framework designed to increase transparency and reduce market uncertainty. This paper examines the key issues associated with the recent changes in the Bank of Canada’s monetary policy framework and analyzes various indicators of central bank credibility.

9The response of the Bank of Canada to various types of shocks, higlighting the
role of central bank credibility, is discussed in Freedman (1996). The remainer of
this section roughly follows Freedman's arguments. 10Eika, Ericsson, and ...

Market Information and Signaling in Central Bank Operations, Or, How often Should a Central Bank Intervene?

A central bank must decide on the frequency with which it will conduct open market operations and the variability in short-term money market that it will allow. It is shown how the optimal operating procedure balances the value of attaining an immediate target and broadcasting the central bank’s intentions against the informational advantages to the central bank of allowing the free play of market forces to reveal more of the information available to market participants.

I. INTRODUCTION In almost all industrialized countries, the central bank
implements policy by setting a proximate operational target for short-term money
market interest rates and then using open market operations and other
instruments such ...
