Abstract

This paper investigates the impact of the Bank of England's (BoE) financial stability communication practices on the stock market returns of banking and non-banking institutions. The communication practices are reflected in frequency, tools and scheduling of communication. The event study results show that the practices have no effect on market participants' reaction. Furthermore, the results show that market participants react to information content independently of practices.
