The euro zone’s highly expansionary monetary policy since 2014-2015 has not led to: Strong credit growth; A sharp depreciation of the euro; A sharp rise in asset prices; A squeezing of risk premia. Its only clear consequence is to have instituted a large redistribution of income from lenders to borrowers. We weigh up the efficiency of these redistributive effects.
