摘要
We assess the yield impact of asset purchases within the European Central Bank's (ECB) Securities Markets Programme (SMP) in five euro area sovereign bond markets from 2010-11. In addition to large announcement effects, we find an impact of approximately -3 basis points at the five-year maturity for purchases of 1/1000 of the outstanding debt. Bond yield volatility and tail risk are lower on intervention days for most SMP countries. A dynamic specification points to both transitory and long-run effects. Purchases improved liquidity conditions and reduced default-risk premia, while the signaling of future low interest rates did not play a role. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
