During the recent financial crisis, one of the forces set in motion by the initial losses on subprime-mortgage loans was a significant decline in the market liquidity of assets and in the ability of financial institutions to obtain funding in wholesale markets. In this article, the authors summarize recent research that clarifies the role of liquidity in destabilizing the financial system and examine the implications of this research for the recently announced financial system reforms, including Basel III.2011-05-19T07:20:35+00:00enUnderstanding and Measuring Liquidity Risk: A Selection of Recent Research2011-05-19Unconventional Monetary Policy: The International Experience with Central Bank Asset Purchases
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/kozicki.pdf
As part of their policy response to the financial crisis of 2007–09, central banks introduced numerous unprecedented monetary policy measures to provide monetary easing. This article defines and documents these measures, focusing on central bank asset purchases and their impact on central bank balance sheets. It then discusses the challenges of identifying the effects of these measures and explores possible exit strategies. The potential costs of these policies are also analyzed, as well as the broader implications for monetary policy frameworks.2011-05-19T07:14:56+00:00enUnconventional Monetary Policy: The International Experience with Central Bank Asset Purchases2011-05-19Lessons from the Use of Extraordinary Central Bank Liquidity Facilities
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/lavoie.pdf
The recent crisis was characterized by widespread deterioration in funding conditions, as well as impairment of the mechanism through which liquidity is normally redistributed within the financial system. Central banks responded with extraordinary measures. This article examines the provision of liquidity by central banks during the crisis as they adapted their existing facilities and introduced new ones, while encouraging a return to private markets and mitigating moral hazard. A review of this experience illustrates the importance of clear principles for intervention, a flexible operating framework, and clear communication and co-operation by central banks. By exposing the degree of interdependence of financial institutions and markets, the crisis highlighted the need for reforms aimed at improving the infrastructure supporting core funding markets and the liquidity of individual institutions.2011-05-19T07:10:31+00:00enLessons from the Use of Extraordinary Central Bank Liquidity Facilities2011-05-19Central Bank Collateral Policy: Insights from Recent Experience

The collateral policy of central banks played a critical role during the recent financial crisis, as they worked to bolster liquidity and alleviate the funding pressures facing financial institutions. This article examines central bank collateral policy and discusses three areas in which central banks can use their collateral policy to influence financial market practices: promoting greater transparency for securitized products, improving practices related to credit risk, and reducing procyclicality in the management of market risk.2011-05-19T07:05:09+00:00enCentral Bank Collateral Policy: Insights from Recent Experience2011-05-19
