We use a unique data set that comprises each bank’s bids in the Eurosystem’s main refinancing operations and its recourse to the LOLR facility (a) to derive banks’ willingness-to-pay for liquidity through a one-week repo and (b) to show that a bank’s willingness-to-pay is a good...

We study the prices that individual banks pay for liquidity (captured by borrowing rates in repos with the central bank and benchmarked by the overnight index swap) as a function of market conditions and bank characteristics. These prices depend in particular on the distribution of liquidity...

We identify frictions in the market for liquidity as well as bank-specific and market-wide factors that affect the prices that banks pay for liquidity, captured here by borrowing rates in repos with the central bank and benchmarked by the overnight index swap. We have price data at the...
