JOB MARKET PAPER:
"Rollover Risk and Bank Lending Behavior: Evidence from Unconventional Central Bank Liquidity" (with C. Mendicino and D. Supera)
Abstract: How does a sudden reduction in debt rollover risk affect the lending behavior of banks? We use the provision of cheaper long-term funding by the 2011 European Central Bank's (ECB) very long-term refinancing operations (vLTRO) as a natural experiment to address this question.

We show that a reduction in rollover risk has a positive and economically sizable impact on bank lending to the real economy. Our findings highlight stronger effects on the supply of credit to small, younger, riskier firms and firms with shorter lending relationships. We also find that loan-level results translate to real and credit effects at the firm-level.
