Abstract

Monetary policy can affect the economy through a variety of channels. Using quarterly secondary data from 2010: 1 to 2020: 2. This paper examines the bank lending channel to provide new evidence and explain the transmission mechanism in Indonesia. The estimation method used is a Vector Error Correction Model (VECM). The result of the VECM analysis shows that the Monetary Policy transmission mechanism through the bank lending channel still has a weak influence on the output. Therefore, from the demand side, it is necessary to seek new market shares for export purposes, also, to maintain existing ones to restore domestic corporate credit demand, and from the supply side, banks must provide easy access for MSMEs to obtain loans while still prioritizing the principle of prudence.
