Flow Effects of Central Bank Asset Purchases on Sovereign Bond Prices: Evidence from a Natural Experiment

Abstract: We estimate the response of sovereign bond prices to net supply shocks caused by purchase operations under the ECB's Public Sector Purchase Programme (PSPP). To avoid simultaneity bias in the estimated relationship between prices and purchases, we exploit a PSPP feature that renders securities temporarily ineligible for reasons unrelated to their prices. Using these purchase restrictions as an instrument to identify exogenous variation in purchase volumes, we find that PSPP causes statistically significant and… Show more

“…Most of the research on the influence and impact on inflation and other macroeconomic instruments such as; interest rates, unemployment, and gross domestic product (Ajah et al, 2020;Diamond, 2020;Perillo & Battiston, 2020;Ramkumar & Bates, 2020;Taghizadeh-Hesary et al, 2020). Min-Ho Nam concluded from his quantitative research that quantitative easing (QE) policies in developed countries such as the United States, Japan, Europe, and the United Kingdom have effectively helped lower inflation through the exchange rate channel, while if using trade channels the influence on inflation is insignificant (Bartkiewicz, 2020;Blattner & Joyce, 2020;De Santis & Holm-Hadulla, 2020;Tanaka, 2020;Ward, 2020). Other research shows that QE policy by the Fed has a significant influence on the financial sector in Indonesia (Pastpipatkul et al, 2015;Teguh&Andaiyani, 2019;Rizky, 2015).…”

“…Эти эффекты распространяются на аналогичные виды активов в той степени, в которой инвесторы считают эти активы взаимозаменяемыми [22]. Снижение доходности облигаций вследствие мер, реализуемых в рамках политики количественного смягчения, также отмечается в работе [23].…”

“…An important caveat is that the ECB's first two government bond purchase programs were aimed at reducing risk premiums in countries under stress (Altavilla et al, 2016;Fratzscher et al, 2018). Indeed, the SMP and OMT were effective in reducing spreads among euro area member countries (Wafte, 2015), while the PSPP appears to have been effective in reducing yields across the euro area (De Santis and Holm-Hadulla, 2017).…”
