      Deposit market concentration and monetary transmission: evidence from the euro area

      Abstract

      Key Points: 
        • Abstract
          I study the transmission of monetary policy to deposit rates in the euro area with a
          focus on asymmetries and the role of banking sector concentration.
        • Moreover, the
          gap between deposit rates across euro area member states - despite being exposed to the same
          key ECB interest rates - has widened.
        • This begs the question whether deposit rates are more
          sluggish in response to both policy rate increases and cuts, and what factors might influence the
          transmission of monetary policy to deposit rates.
        • Whether banks are indeed able to adjust deposit rates asymmetrically to positive and
          negative changes in policy rates could thus well depend on how much market power they hold
          in the deposit market.
        • Arguing that market power increases in the degree of market concentration,
          I further consider whether more concentrated banking sectors set rates (more) asymmetrically.
        • The response of deposit rates in banking sectors with an average degree of concentration does
          not appear asymmetric.
        • The degree of market concentration is often pointed at, but recent evidence
          for the euro area is scarce.
        • In this paper, I provide empirical evidence on the asymmetric response of deposit rates to
          monetary policy, and relate this to the degree of concentration within a country?s banking sector.
        • Both papers
          provide empirical evidence based on US deposit markets showing that deposit rates respond
          more rigidly to upward changes in market rates than downward changes, especially so in more
          concentrated markets.
        • Recent research on euro area deposit markets,
          instead, has focused more on the transmission of negative policy rates (see e.g.
        • Whether banks are able to set deposit rates that materially differ from policy rates is affected

          by market concentration: market power is assumed to increase in the degree of concentration in
          the banking sector.

        • Concentration thus appears to matter for how quickly ECB monetary policy has
          been transmitted to deposit rates across the euro area.
        • Banks thus have a motive to be
          rigid in adjusting deposit rates to a ?positive? monetary policy shock.
        • While customers are generally (and potentially rationally) inattentive, swift and substantial
          nominal deposit rate declines may trigger deposit outflows.
        • relative deposit rate = deposit rate - short term rate
          The inverse of the wedge, the relative deposit rate will allow us to see more clearly how
          the deposit rate evolves in comparison to the short-term rate.
        • This then translates to (more
          pronounced) effects on the transmission of policy to the deposit wedge, reinforcing the asymmetry discussed before.
        • More concentration would mean more rigid deposit rates (and thus an
          increase in the deposit wedge) in case of positive surprises, and more flexible deposit rates (and
          thus a decrease in the deposit wedge) in case of negative surprises (see also e.g.
        • I add an identical
          altered-linex adjustment cost for deposit rates, to capture the upward rigidity and downward
          flexibility of deposit rates as well.
        • As discussed
          previously, the deposit rate is particularly rigid in case of a positive shock, illustrating the dividend smoothing motive and bank market power.
        • Without the asymmetric adjustment cost,
          the response of the deposit rates to positive and negative changes in policy would have been
          symmetric.
        • This appears a reasonable assumption
          in general, as market concentration or market shares are slow-moving concepts.

          Methods and data

          I study the dynamic response to an unexpected change in monetary policy on deposit rates
          in different countries in the euro area.

        • deposit rate - short-term rate), which for the sake of
          brevity I will refer to as the ?relative deposit rate?.
        • Positive IRFs for the relative deposit rate imply that
          the deposit rate has increased by more than the short-term rate, narrowing the wedge between
          the short-term rate and the deposit rate.
