Abstract Worries about Italy and the unresolved issue of euro governance – coupled with uncertainty surrounding Brexit – means that the European Central Bank (ECB) may already be facing its next crisis in the euro area. Unfortunately, the ECB is still fighting the last war, deploying the tools of unconventional monetary policy to address lingering problems while unable institutionally to address needed structural change. This paper looks at the ECB as an institution amongst institutions and shows how even more unconventional approaches will not help to bolster the economy of the euro area. Indeed, given the complexity of money, the effects of expectations, and continued uncertainty, expanding the ECB’s unconventional arsenal is likely to have deleterious consequences across Europe.

The paper looks at the ‘new normal’ in so many of the world's central banks, and specifically the UK. It examines the position of the monetary policy framework, instrument settings, the underlying models, unconventional policy measures, real interest rates, and the interface with macroprudential policy. It explores both the advantages and challenges involved in any move to return towards pre-crisis arrangements, and offers suggestions for possible ways in which current policy dilemmas might be resolved.

The following article is a literature study on how monetary policy is in maintaining the Indonesian economy amid the Covid-19 pandemic and will be reviewed from a sharia perspective, and will see whether government policies are fair and not only benefit certain parties. The method used is to review several research results that have been published in journals that explain the Covid-19 Pandemic and the policies taken by the government. The findings of this study inform that monetary policy is indeed influential in suppressing the inflation rate and can achieve economic stability, and the more obvious thing is that the government and a set of policy makers have been very fast in responding to the impacts arising from the Covid-19 pandemic undermining the global economy with policy stimuli that have been drawn up to fight the pandemic. From the point of view of sharia, the policies taken by the government already have a very good goal, namely meeting the needs of the people is fair and mashlahah is the main goal, the policies carried out by the government are conceptual and seen from the sharia side it is very good and upholds the welfare of the people. Pandemi Covid-19 menjadi musuh nyata bagi seluruh lapisan masyarakat baik dari kalangan menengah ke atas maupun menengah kebawah, karena pandemic ini tidak hanya menyerang aspek kesehatan melainkan seluruh aspek kehidupan, baik dari segi ekonomi, religi hingga gaya hidup sehingga dengan keadaan ini pemerintah menerapkan tatanan kehidupan baru yang disebut New Normal. Tulisan berikut ini adalah studi literature tentang bagaimana kebijakan moneter dalam menjaga perekonomian Indonesia ditengah masa pandemic Covid-19 dan akan ditinjau berdasarkan perspektif syariah, serta akan melihat apakah kebijakan pemerintah sudah adil dan tidak hanya menguntungkan pihak tertentu. Metode yang digunakan adalah mengkaji beberapa hasil penelitian yang pernah dimuat pada jurnal-jurnal yang menjelaskan seputar Pandemi Covid-19 dan kebijakan-kebijakan yang diambil oleh pemerintah. Temuan penelitian ini menginformasikan bahwa kebijakan moneter memang berpengaruh dalam menekan laju inflasi dan dapat mencapai kestabilan perekonomian, dan hal yang lebih nyata pada saat ini pemerintah dan seperangkat pembuat kebijakannya sudah dengan sangat cepat dalam menanggapi dampak-dampak yang timbul akibat pandemic Covid-19 yang telah merusak perekonomian global dengan stimulus- stimulus kebijakan yang telah disusun demi melawan pandemic. Dari sudut pandang syariah, kebijakan yang diambil oleh pemerintah sudah memiliki tujuan yang sangat baik, yaitu pemenuhan kebutuhan rakyat sudah adil dan mashlahah menjadi tujuan utama, pada intinya kebijakan yang dilakukan pemerintah secara konseptual dan dilihat dari sisi syariah sudah sangat baik dan menjunjung tinggi kesejahteraan rakyat.

Abstract We investigate how liquidity regulations affect banks by examining a dormant monetary policy tool that functions as a liquidity regulation. For causal inference, we use a regression kink design that relies on the variation in a marginal high-quality liquid asset requirement around an exogenous threshold. We show that mandated increases in liquidity cause banks to reduce credit supply. Liquidity requirements also depress banks’ profitability, though some of the regulatory costs are passed on to liability holders. We document a prudential benefit of liquidity requirements by showing that banks subject to a higher requirement just before the financial crisis had lower odds of failure.
