摘要
Using a panel dataset of 9421 banks from 59 countries over the period 2009-2018 and a Difference-in-Differences estimator, this paper aims to assess the effects of negative interest rates on banks' risk-taking. We find that banks' risk-taking has been lower in countries where negative rates have been implemented. This effect depends on the characteristics of a country's banking system, namely the level of capitalization and size. (C) 2019 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
