Abstract

This work develops an empirical study of the credit channel in Chile. We found that the interest rate has a positive effect in the long run credit supply. Nevertheless, the disequilibrium in the short run credit supply has a significant negative effect on economic activity. This is most marked when the central bank is carried out a contractive monetary policy. Thus, all this evidence supports the fact that the central bank should implement a monetary policy beyond the control of the interest rate i.e. non conventional monetary policies to affect directly the liquidity restriction on the banking system to avoid a collapse of the economy in crisis times.
