Hiệu quả truyền tải chính sách tiền tệ qua kênh tín dụng thương mại ở Việt Nam

Abstract

Existing research in Vietnam mainly focuses on the traditional transmission channels of monetary policy. This article investigates the effectiveness of monetary policy transmission through an alternative funding channel for bank credit, which is the trade credit channel. Panel data regression was conducted with datasets from 501 Vietnamese enterprises in the period of the second quarter of 2010 to the second quarter of 2020. The results show that most enterprises in Vietnam do not have the ability to use trade credit as an alternative fund for bank credit in the context of monetary tightening, thereby helping to maintain or even increase the transmission efficiency of monetary policy. The transmission of monetary policy through the trade credit channel is most effective for enterprises with low credit ratings and is partly weakened for large enterprises, which can use trade credit as complementary short-term financing in the situation of credit supply shortage.
