QE has substantially increase d central bank reserves held by commercial banks and raised the volume of short-term wholesale deposits\, which made bank funding less stable. Becau se of Basel III regulation\, large volumes of excess reserves and short-te rm wholesale deposits curtail bank lending. We develop a structural model incorporating imperfect competition in credit and deposit markets and regu latory costs that escalate as banks approach minimum requirements. This fr amework allows us to quantify the cost of specific regulatory constraints and assess how excess reserves contribute to regulatory costs. In France\, QE increased the marginal cost of long-term lending by 16 basis points in Q4 2021. Counterfactual analysis indicates that maintaining reserves at t heir 2019 level of 2 trillion euros instead of 4 trillion euros would have boosted aggregate bank lending by approximately 5% in Q4 2021.\n DTSTART:20250117T153000Z DTEND:20250117T164500Z LOCATION:Room 245\, Bronfman Building\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 1G5\, 1001 rue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:Finance Area Seminar: Basile Dubois URL:/desautels/channels/event/finance-area-seminar-bas ile-dubois-362559 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
