The article discusses the activities of National Bank of Poland during the past twenty-five year and more specifically in the years 1989–2013 with particular emphasis on monetary policy. During this time, the Polish central bank has undergone fundamental change, starting from the position of the so-called monobank, i.e. bank without autonomy in activities, characteristic of planned economy. The article describes the process of transformation of the National Bank of Poland to the role of a central bank operating in a market economy. The paper emphasizes all the important events in the transformation, including building of a two-tier banking system, the gradual replacement of the administrative measures by monetary policy instruments, currency denomination, constitutional guarantees of the role and independence of the National Bank of Poland, creation of the Monetary Policy Council – a departure from the single monetary policy-making in favor of collegiality, changing the monetary policy strategy to direct inflation targeting, bank exchange rates policy, open market operations.

Purpose The study aims to identify the impact of monetary policy tools on the performance of banks in India, and this could be an excellent suggestion to the regulators in framing the favourable interest rates which would meet the macroeconomic objectives of the Indian economy. Design/methodology/approach The design adopted in this study is descriptive and analytical research. Correlation and regression analysis is used to determine the relationship between bank rate (BR) and the performance of public sector banks in India. The sample chosen for this study is the public sector banks actively performing in India. Findings The performance is measured by taking three factors, and they are deposits, loans and advances (L&A) and total asset value of the banks. All three factors have shown an impact of BR on them during the five years. L&A affected the least amongst the three factors, but the other two were significantly impacted by the change in BR by the Reserve Bank of India. So, there should be a favourable fluctuation in the BR which will bring flexibility in the banking system, and they can perform well in the economy and the central bank also can concentrate on the macro-economic situation in the country. Originality/value This paper helps in giving suggestions to the Central bank, researchers, financial institutions to look into the financial performance and monetary policy rates and the central bank also can concentrate on the macro-economic situation in the country.

The financial market in Poland consists of institutions and rules of market trading regulated by legal norms defined by financial law regulations. The main element of the banking sector in Poland is the banking system. It was structured in 1989 in a two-tier structure with a division into central and commercial banking modelled after the western banking model. The central bank is the main institution of the banking market and indirectly also of the entire financial market. It regulates the amount of money in the national economy using monetary policy instruments. These instruments include the impact on interest rates on the banking market, open market operations, lending and deposit operations and the shape of the reserve requirement of commercial banks. The application and functioning of these monetary policy instruments is strictly regulated by law. Despite the fact that the financial market, like other markets, is built according to the classic model of the market mechanism, in which two sides of the market interact, i.e. demand and supply, and the subject of trading is money in cash or contained in various financial instruments, this market is a particularly institutionalized and regulated market.

Instabilities in the banking sector have had an adverse effect on the economy as a whole, since the largest share in the financial system and financial intermediation in Kyrgyzstan have been captured by banking sector. Economic efficiency in banking can be viewed as a source of financial stability of banking system. Economic efficiency of the banking is more important challenge not only for shareholders and managers of banks, and also for regulation and supervision authorities, and public and potential investors. The aim of this study is to examine factors affecting the banking cost efficiency for Kyrgyz banks. It is also important to choose the appropriate approach in measurement of banking cost efficiency, since there are many different methods. In this study preferred stochastic frontier approach which assumes random error term which captures sampling, measurement and specification errors. We adopted stochastic cost frontier model proposed by Battese ve Coelli (1995) which also allow to examine investigate the impact of variables on efficiency. We used unbalanced panel data set captured 17-23 Kyrgyz commercial banks for period of 2000-2013. Obtained results suggest that capitalization, foreign ownership, credit risk, liquidity risk and currency risk have most influence on cost efficiency scores of banks calculated averagely at level of 0,766. Overall results indicate that domestic banks more cost efficient than domestic private and foreign banks. Average cost efficiency scores of domestic banks, foreign and separately public banks are 0,848; 0,649 and 0,875, respectively.

Purpose This paper aims to examine the role of foreign banks in transmitting global monetary policy shocks to India. Further, the authors try to explore the international bank lending channel and analyze the impact of global monetary policy on Indian macroeconomic variables. Design/methodology/approach The authors use a structural break unit root test and structural vector autoregression on monthly data from 1998 to 2018. Findings The study finds that the global monetary policy is significantly determining foreign banks’ lending in India; the evidence of a portfolio re-balancing channel in the process of global monetary policy transmission to the Indian economy; the exchange rate is significantly explaining the foreign bank credit dynamism in India; and evidence of international monetary policy spillover to the Indian economy. Originality/value This is the first attempt to analyze the role of foreign banks in the transmission of global monetary policy shocks to India, where the literature availability is limited. The finding of ineffective domestic monetary policy on foreign bank lending opens the need for an in-depth and diversified analysis of the role of foreign banks in the transmission of domestic monetary policy.

Abstract. Introduction. Researchers and banking practitioners pay considerable attention to the analysis of the impact of inflation on the banking sector. The statement of the scientists as to the nature of inflation, corresponding to the modern development of the economic processes, is an approach to the origin of inflation based on the imbalance in money supply and demand. Purpose. During 2014-2017, the political and economic crises in Ukraine led to imbalances in the main macroeconomic proportions, which negatively affected the development of the banking system and, as a result, caused rising of the inflation rate, cash outflow, increasing dollarization and declining purchasing power. Inflation processes had a negative impact on the banks’ performance, namely, the rise in inflation reduced lending and interest income and increased interest expenses, what, therefore, reduced banks’ net interest income. Results. While assessing the impact of inflation on the banks’ performance, it was determined that 2019 was a year of the banks’ performance record. According to the statistics, when the inflation rate fell to record low of 4.05%, BSU’s profit in 2019 reached a historic high: solvent banks received UAH 58.36 billion of net profit, which is 2.7 times higher than the previous year historical record. Thus, the implementation of the NBU’s stimulating monetary policy contributes to the achievement of the projected social and economic goals of the society and is an essential factor in ensuring the stability of the banking system, creating the appropriate basis: price stability and low inflation in the long run. Conclusions. According to the results of the analysis, it is possible to state that in 2020 and in the coming years, due to the qualitative monetary policy of the NBU and a decrease in inflation, there is a reason to expect an increase in net profit of the banking system in Ukraine. This positive trend will renew the banking sector in Ukraine, which will lead to its profitability and efficiency. Keywords: inflation, inflation component, inflation targeting, monetary policy, banks’ performance, lending.
