Liquidity risk, credit risk and the overnight interest rate spread: a Stochastic Volatility modelling approach by Beirne, John, Caporale, Guglielmo Maria, Spagnolo, Nicola

“…Our results suggest that liquidity risk is the main determinant of the volatility of the policy spread, but also that private bank credit risk has become more apparent in the post-Lehman collapse phase of the crisis for the euro area as financial CDS premia rose due to possible default fears.In addition, the ECB appears to have been more effective in addressing liquidity risk since the onset of the crisis, and this may be related to its greater direct access to a broader range of counterparties and its acceptance of a broader range of eligible collateral. …”
