BoE says negative interest rates are ‘under review’ for first time

英国央行首次表示，正在考虑负利率

背景：英国央行在其324年历史上首次表示，正在研究用负利率政策来刺激经济复苏。一周前，英国央行行长安德鲁·贝利还表示，英国央行不会为了应对新冠肺炎危机而“计划或考虑”负利率政策。但没有几天，在投资者接受了三年期国债-0.003%的平均利率(这意味着你得付钱才能借钱给政府)的当日，贝利的态度来了个大反转——他告诉议员们，央行正在积极地审视负利率政策，我们不会排除任何可能，尤其是在当前这种特殊情况下。实际上，许多欧洲国家已经实行了负利率，并收获了一些积极的传导效果。
