Abstract

After the ECB’s Governing Council Monetary policy meetings, market uncertainty has systematically fallen. It has done so even more in the past years. In particular, announcements related to asset purchases had a strong dampening impact on market uncertainty. This suggests that, despite the increasing complexity of unconventional policies, the ECB has been successful in communication. L’incertitude des marchés a, en moyenne, diminué après chacune des réunions de politique monétaire du Conseil des gouverneurs de la BCE, et plus encore ces dernières années. En particulier, les annonces relatives aux achats d’actifs ont eu un effet fortement modérateur sur l’incertitude, signe de l’efficacité de la communication de la BCE malgré la complexité croissante des politiques non conventionnelles.
