IMF-Luxembourg : Selected Issues
April 3, 2018--IMPACT OF MONETARY POLICY ON LUXEMBOURG1
Accommodative monetary policy has contributed to the performance of the Luxembourg economy through some expansion of aggregate demand and through its impact on the financial system. Banks have remained profitable and interest margins stable, while fee and commission income from fund and other activity has been healthy. The investment fund industry has benefited from various factors such as portfolio rebalancing, search for yield, and other market developments leading to strong inflows into various classes of investment funds, and through strong valuation effects.
Scenario analysis suggest that the fund industry could be adversely impacted by sharp interest rate increases and that, because of interconnections, the banking system would also be affected. Margins of some banks could also decline when interest rate normalize. Against this backdrop, it is important to mplement all 2017 FSAP recommendations that will contribute to making the financial system more resilient to shocks, including those arising from faster-than-expected monetary policy normalization.
A. Introduction
1. Monetary policy has been in exceptional territory since the global financial crisis, thereby supporting aggregate demand. While short-term interest rates reached the lower bound,
various unconventional monetary policies were implemented by the ECB and by the Federal Reserve System (Fed), including long-term refinancing operations, asset purchase programs, outright monetary transactions, negative interest rates on the deposit facility driving short-term rates into negative territory, and novel communication tools such as forward guidance.
