Abstract

We investigate the impact of TLTRO III operations introduced by the European Central Bank on bank lending, interest rates and profitability of Slovak banks. We deploy a two-step estimation approach with a mahalanobis distance matching and a difference-in-difference approach relying on bank-level and AnaCredit data. Our findings suggest that the credit easing measures had a positive effect on bank lending and negative effect on lending rates for non-financial corporations. With respect to bank profitability, we find inconclusive evidence of a positive effect of TLTRO III on net interest income and return on assets. Banks in Slovakia have not significantly increased their reserves at the central bank in reaction to participation in TLTRO III.
