Abstract
Modern central banking offers policymakers innovative tools to safeguard price stability and the normal functioning of the financial system. However, the unintended impact of the implementation of non-standard monetary policy measures, especially on systemic risk, remains underexplored from a microeconomic point of view. This study investigates the effect of non-standard monetary policy measures on systemic risk of listed financial institutions in the Euro area. Our results show the presence of the systemic risk-taking channel of monetary policy, whereby systemic risk increases following further enforcement of non-standard monetary policy measures, with the effect being stronger for smaller and undercapitalised banks. The results are robust to various alternative measures of bank systemic risk and non-standard monetary policy. Our findings bear critical policy implications for financial stability.
