## Definition

Unless otherwise defined, this refers to the transmission of a central bank measure to the lending behavior of banks. - A distinction is often made between the bank lending channel, where institution-specific changes in business policy are decisive, depending in particular on the respective liquidity situation and regulatory capital requirements, and the balance sheet channel, where a possible loss in the value of loan collateral tendered to the bank influences transactions. - See braking channel, monetary policy; bull market, cyclical; information, asymmetric; transmission mechanism, monetary - See ECB Monthly Bulletin, November 2011, pp. 95 f.
