社区银行与货币政策传导——美国的实践及对我国的启示

Community Banks and the Transmission of Monetary Policy:Practices in U.S. and Its Implications to China

美国的实践表明,社区银行是货币政策行动影响经济的一条重要渠道。这一方面体现在货币政策的改变对其贷款活动带来相比于其他银行机构更大的影响,另一方面则体现在经由其将不属于资本市场"活跃的参与者"的小企业也纳入货币政策显著影响的范围。鉴于我国货币政策在基层的传导效果不够理想,社区银行的发展可以为货币政策的传导提供基层承载体。

The practices in U.S. show that community banks serves as an important channel for monetary policy actions to take effect on economy. This can be explained from two aspects. On the one hand, the change of monetary policy brings much bigger influence on lending behavior of community banks than on those of other banks, and on the other hand, through community banks, small businesses, which are not the active participants of capital markets, are also brought into the effect-scope of monetary policy. Seeing that the transmission of monetary policy at the primary level in China is not smooth, the development of community banks can provide primary carriers for the transmission of China＇ s monetary policy.
