Abstract

Central banks implement negative interest rate policies (NIRP) to incentivize economic subjects to spend and invest money for long term economic growth. Although nominal negative interest rates can not be effectively explained by economic theory, when inflation is included there are currently real negative interest rates in almost all industrial nations. We investigate the difference in banks' performances regarding their core business composition in the short run after zero interest rate policy is announced first. Assigning European banks in the interval from a pure commercial bank to an investment bank leads to the observed heterogeneity within the industry.
