Christian Bittner is an Economist at the Research Centre of the Deutsche Bundesbank since May 2023. His research focuses on Banking, Financial Intermediation, Monetary Policy, and Green Finance. He has contributed to understanding the interplay between unconventional monetary policies like quantitative easing (QE) and interest rate adjustments, particularly at the effective lower bound in the Euro Area. His work also explores information transmission mechanisms in banking and corporate control dynamics, as well as the augmented bank balance-sheet channel of monetary policy. Bittner’s recent publications analyze the implications of negative interest rates and asset-purchase programs on bank lending behavior and financial stability. Key publications include analyses on mixing QE with interest rate policies, information flows between banks and corporate markets, and the contagious effects of 'zombie' firms on financial stability. His research often employs micro-level data to assess policy impacts, contributing to macroeconomic and financial policy design. Bittner holds a strong academic background in economics, though his specific educational details are not elaborated in the provided texts. He is actively involved in the Bundesbank’s Research Centre, collaborating on initiatives like the Panel on Household Finances and Green Finance initiatives. His work bridges theoretical monetary policy frameworks with empirical evidence from banking systems, emphasizing real-world applications for central bank decision-making.
