Abstract

This paper explores the impact of Covid-19, and that of the MMLF program on US MMFs systemic risk through the CoVaR methodology. Using 149 listed prime MMFs, between January 2019 and April 2020, the results document that while Covid-19 increased their systemic risk, the MMLF facility scheme mitigated it.
