Proper conduct of monetary
policy requires understanding the monetary transmission mechanism, to monitor the economy,
make decisions on the stance of policy, and explain the policy actions to the public.
Hence, gathering evidence on the monetary transmission mechanism in the euro area has been
a priority for the Eurosystem. This book presents the results of a multi-year
collaborative project conducted by the European Central Bank and the other Eurosystem
central banks. First, macro data are consistently investigated with both VARs and
structural models for the area as a whole and for individual countries. Second, the book
contains an unprecedented set of studies on the effects of monetary policy using bank and
firm panel data. The results described in country case studies and overview essays by
central bank economists, along with a discussion chapter by eminent academics, provide an
essential contribution to the latest research.
