Working Paper

2485d03e4848

We assess the effect and the timing of the corporate arm of the ECB quantitative easing (CSPP) on

corporate bond issuance. Because of several contemporaneous measures, to isolate the programme

effects we rely on one key eligibility feature: the euro denomination of newly issued bonds. We find that

the significant increase in bonds issuance by eligible firms is due to the CSPP and that this effect took at

least six months to unfold. This result holds even when comparing firms with similar ratings, thus providing

evidence that unconventional monetary policy can foster a financing diversification regardless of firms'

risk profile.

Accuracy and determinants of self-assessed euro area house prices, 14/11/2019

https://www.ecb.europa.eu/pub/pdf/scpwps/ecb.wp2328~119c7e6f25.en.pdf?b9e6b653463a09780dd9

Working Paper

9dc5a39b2da0

Using microdata from the second wave of the Household Finance and Consumption Survey, we investigate

the accuracy of property values estimated by homeowners - so called "self-assessed" house prices - and

explore the drivers of possible deviations of these prices from official hedonic house price indices. We find

evidence that euro area homeowners overestimate the value of their properties by around 9%. Across the

largest euro area countries, the overestimation lies in a range between 3.2% in Germany and 22% in Italy.

Keywords: house prices, micro data, under/overvaluation, wealth effects, quantile regressions

Working Paper

This paper assesses house prices in 11 Canadian Census Metropolitan Areas (CMA) using the borrowing-

capacity and the net-present-value approaches. The results indicate that by the end of 2018, house prices

in most metropolitan areas are aligned with macroeconomic fundamentals. However, in Hamilton,

Toronto, and Vancouver house prices have increased beyond the values implied by the fundamentals.

Keywords: house prices, borrowing capacity, valuation, financial stability

Integrating Solvency and Liquidity Stress Tests: The Use of Markov Regime-Switching Models,

Tests-The-Use-of-Markov-Regime-Switching-Models-48752

The paper presents a framework to integrate liquidity and solvency stress tests. An empirical study based

on European bond trading data finds that asset sales haircuts depend on the total amount of assets sold

and general liquidity conditions in the market. To account for variations in market liquidity, the study uses

Markov regime-switching models and links haircuts with market volatility and the amount of securities

sold by banks. The framework is accompanied by a Matlab program and an Excel-based tool, which allow

the calculations to be replicated for any type of traded security and to be used for liquidity and solvency

stress testing.

Keywords: stress testing, solvency risk, liquidity risk, asset fire sales, Markov regime-switching models

usefulness of flow statements of risk-weighted assets for trading desks under the internal models

MNB - Válogatás a nemzetközi pénzügyi és gazdasági intézmények dokumentumaiból

We study the optimal design of a central bank digital currency (CBDC) in an environment where agents

sort into cash, CBDC and bank deposits according to their preferences over anonymity and security; and

where network effects make the convenience of payment instruments dependent on the number of their

users. CBDC can be designed with attributes similar to cash or deposits, and can be interest-bearing: a

CBDC that closely competes with deposits depresses bank credit and output, while a cash-like CBDC may

lead to the disappearance of cash. Then, the optimal CBDC design trades off bank intermediation against

the social value of maintaining diverse payment instruments. When network effects matter, an interest-

bearing CBDC alleviates the central bank's tradeoff.

institutions, 15/11/2019

Publication

https://www.bis.org/fsi/publ/insights21.pdf

Financial institutions use a range of testing activities to assess their cyber resilience capabilities. While

each type of test has its intended objective, there is recognition of the importance of threat intelligence-

led simulation of real-life cyber attacks through red team tests. Red team tests are useful to identify

potential weaknesses in financial institutions' cyber protection, detection and response capabilities that

are then addressed by an effective remediation plan. In recent years, a number of jurisdictions have

established frameworks for red team testing mainly for large and critical financial institutions. These

frameworks share a number of common elements, but the objectives and implementation details differ.

Coordinated cross-border red team testing by financial institutions is necessary to avoid jurisdictional blind

spots and minimise unnecessary duplication of efforts by firms and authorities. In this regard, we observe

that certain authorities may be prepared to recognise red team testing conducted under another

jurisdiction's framework if certain conditions are met.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping economies, promising to generate productivity gains, improve

efficiency and lower costs. At the same time, AI is also fuelling anxieties and ethical concerns. As AI's

impacts permeate our societies, its transformational power must be put at the service of people and the

planet. This document presents the work conducted by the Expert Group on Artificial Intelligence at the

OECD (AIGO) to scope principles to foster trust in and adoption of AI. In particular, this paper presents a

common understanding of what is an AI system as well as a framework that details the stages of the AI

system lifecycle. This work informed the draft Recommendation of the Council on Artificial Intelligence.

This paper looks for reasons to explain why the labour participation rate in Ireland has yet to recover from

the crisis. In recent years, the Irish economy has experienced a sustained expansion phase and the

unemployment rate is approaching pre-crisis levels. However, ten years after the crisis, the labour market

participation rate, a crucial determinant of labour supply, has not recovered as strongly as expected.

Ireland stands out from the EU average, where the activity rate has increased continuously.

Understanding the Gender Gap in Financial Well-Being,15/11/2019

EU

https://ec.europa.eu/info/publications/understanding-gender-gap-financial-well-being_en

Publication

Increasingly, evidence of a gender gap in a range of economic and social contexts alongside a gender wage

gap, has been demonstrated. An element of this can be considered through the body of economic, social

and behavioural literature which highlights a gap between genders in their financial experiences and their

ability to meet their financial needs - also referred to as financial well-being. This study uses EU timeseries

survey data to investigate how a gender gap manifests in indicative components of financial wellbeing -

experience of prices and risk, and expectations on spending and saving. Understanding different

dimensions of this gender gap and determining how much is due to differences in income and financial

situation, provides practical insights into potential policy interventions. Results indicate a persistent

gender gap in key indicators of financial well-being, measured through male and female experience of

changes in prices and risk aversion.

Keywords: gender, well-being, financial markets, survey data

Managed Trade: What Could be Possible Spillover Effects of a Potential Trade Agreement Between the

IMF

U.S. and China?, 15/11/2019

Working Paper

https://www.imf.org/en/Publications/WP/Issues/2019/11/15/Managed-Trade-What-Could-be-Possible-

Spillover-Effects-of-a-Potential-Trade-Agreement-48771

The trade discussions between the U.S. and China are on-going. Not much is known about the shape and

nature of a potential agreement, but it seems possible that it would include elements of managed trade.

This paper attempts to examine the direct, first-round spillover effects for the rest of the world from

managed trade using three approaches. The results suggest that, in the absence of a meaningful boost in

China's domestic demand and imports, bilateral purchase commitments are likely to generate substantial

trade diversion effects for other countries. For example, the European Union, Japan, and Korea are likely

to have significant export diversion in a potential deal that includes substantial purchases of U.S. vehicles,

machinery, and electronics by China.

Keywords: managed trade deal, spillover effects

Press Release

Greece's economic recovery continues, but it has fallen far short of expectations. The new government

elected in July has pledged to follow pro-growth policies while honoring fiscal and structural policy

commitments to Euro Area (EA) member states, but its ability to overcome vested interests has yet to be

tested. Public debt is projected to trend down over the next decade, though long-term sustainability is not

assured under realistic macro-fiscal assumptions. Still-weak bank balance sheets act as a drag on growth

prospects and pose significant fiscal and financial stability risks. These and other factors leave Greece

vulnerable to a range of external and domestic shocks. Greece owes the Fund SDR 6.7 billion and is under

Post-Program Monitoring (PPM). The authorities have asked the European Institutions (EIs) for approval

to prepay the portion (SDR 2.2 billion) that is subject to surcharges.

Press Release

Collective bargaining and workers' voice are often discussed in the past rather than in the future tense,

but can they play a role in the context of a rapidly changing world of work? This report provides a

comprehensive assessment of the functioning of collective bargaining systems and workers' voice

arrangements across OECD countries, and new insights on their effect on labour market performance

today. The publication provides a detailed review of existing collective bargaining institutions and workers'

voice arrangements. It analyses the role of these institutions for employment, wages, labour market

inclusiveness, as well as non-monetary aspects of job quality. The publication also discusses how collective

bargaining can be mobilised to address emerging challenges in the labour market, and identifies the type

of government intervention that may be required to do this. The report provides a resource for policy

makers, trade unions and employers' organisations interested in understanding how collective bargaining

and workers' voice can be used to complement public regulation in shaping ever-changing labour markets.

Press Release

Government at a Glance 2019 presents a dashboard of key indicators of public sector performance and

policies that governments are implementing to reconnect with their people, improve equality and spur

more inclusive growth. The policy chapter focuses on how "people-centric" public services are performing

in terms of access, responsiveness and quality. The report provides outcome indicators on education,

health and justice, complemented with measures of how people perceive those public services. The

publication also reviews, through internationally comparable indicators, public governance practices and

reforms from the perspective of people-centricity, for example in budgeting, regulatory governance,

public procurement and the use of open government data.

Key findings:

• Persistently high debt levels reduce governments' ability to react to economic shocks;

• While public employment has been generally steady over time, not all public employees are treated

equally;

  • A growing number of countries are pursuing budget practices that focus on the impact of budgetary decisions on key population groups and policy areas;
  • Stakeholder consultation on draft laws and regulations is widespread in OECD countries, yet it usually occurs late in the process and stakeholders are seldom provided with feedback about the impact of their comments;
  • Governments are increasingly using public procurement to advance sustainability goals;
  • OECD countries continue to show progress in making data from public bodies available to all in open, free and accessible formats;
  • While trust in government has returned to pre-crisis levels, people's sense of political efficacy remains low;
  • On average, citizen satisfaction with health and education and confidence in the judiciary have slightly increased in the OECD, but inequalities persist among population groups.
