Forward looking behavior in ECB liquidity auctions: Evidence from the pre-crisis period

Abstract

Using data from the pre-crisis period we investigate banks' joint bidding behavior in the ECB's Main Refinancing Operations (MRO) and Longer Term Refinancing Operations (LTRO). We test whether banks bid at lower rates in MROs before the LTRO and at higher rates after the LTRO, compared to other operations. We motivate this by findings from the auction literature suggesting that agents' bidding behavior is forward looking and takes sequences of future auctions into account.
