加拿大銀行操作頻段

  • April 6, 2020

我閱讀了以下關於加拿大銀行用於誘導目標隔夜貸款利率的“操作區間”的引述:

The Bank of Canada has a system of an "operating band" for overnight trading.” This band is one-half of a percentage point wide and at the center of the bank is the target for the overnight rate. For example, if the operating band is from 2.25 to 2.75%, the target for the overnight rate is 2.5%. The top of that band, 2.75%, is the bank rate—the interest rate that the bank charges on one-day loans to LVTS participants. The bottom of the band, 2.25%, is the deposit rate—the interest rate that the bank pays on any surplus left on deposit overnight at the bank.

我想知道的:讓銀行利率高於2.75和存款利率低於2.25會達到同樣的目標嗎?例如,如果您將操作頻帶設為 2.0 - 3.0 而不是 2.25 - 2.75。

擴大隔夜利率的可接受區間會在一定程度上降低貨幣政策的有效性。如果實際市場利率接近區間中間,則政策利率區間有可能移動50個基點,實際利率可能保持不變。這意味著政策利率區間可能需要更大的變動以實現相同的隔夜利率軌跡。

此外,即使政策立場不變,允許隔夜利率的更多變化也會隨著時間的推移對平均值產生更大的不確定性。這給到期的固定收益工具帶來了比隔夜更大的風險。在投資者厭惡風險的假設下,這將提高期限溢價。
