Motivation• Long-standing debate on real effects of monetary policy
Extraordinary recent actions to keep rates low
• Residential mortgage market believed to play an importantrole in the transmission of monetary policy Homes and mortgage debt as key household asset and liability Adjustable rate mortgages (ARMs) represent frictionless
pass-through
• Empirical evidence on the impact of lower mortgage rateson households/broader economy fairly limited Data limitations Identification challenges

This Paper• Provide novel evidence on the impact of lower rates on
households and broader economy during the crisis Micro: Household balance sheet and (inferred) consumption
Credit card debt, auto financing Regional: Broader economy
House prices, durable consumption, employment
• Speak to policies on mortgage market rules/regulations Significant debate regarding the relative magnitudes
Does debt deleveraging limit consumption response? (Agarwal et al. 2012, Mian and Sufi 2013)
Mortgage modification programs, programs facilitating refinancing Remove institutional frictions in implementation of policies
[HAMP/HARP] since all eligible households receive rate reduction

Related Literature• Contribute to literature on
Monetary transmission mechanism Household response to income shocks & (fiscal) stimulus programsMortgage payments reduction / modification on defaults Household behavior during recent crisis
• We add to the literature in significant ways Significant stimulus spaced over time in contrast to one-time income
increase Impact of lower mortgage rates on consumer debt and other
economic outcomes
Closely related to concurrent work by Di Maggio et al. 2014

Empirical Challenges• Hard to empirically assess impact of lower interest rates
Rates endogenous with either borrower characteristics and/or macroeconomic environment
• Our approach At micro level: Exploit variation in ARM contract types across
borrowers to generate variation in rates faced by similar households
At regional level: Exploit variation in distribution of contract types (ARM share) across similar regions

Micro Data• Proprietary data from a secondary market participant
Detailed monthly loan-level panel dataMortgage performance data
Loan balances, current interest rate, mortgage type, payments, delinquency status, location (zip code)
Consumer credit recordsCredit card balances, auto loans, student loans, credit inquiries,
payment status, current credit score (FICO) Records matched using borrower SSN
• Dataset representative of most U.S. mortgage borrowersMore than 350,000 agency borrowers

• Very significant debt repayment (deleveraging) in the bottom quarter of liquidity-constrained borrowers Key target of many interventions MPC often viewed as high in this group
• But upper bound MPC of 0.35 – 0.31 Not surprising that marginal dollar allocated to high cost credit

• Wealth constrained show: Bigger improvement in mortgage delinquency Significantly larger increase in new auto debt financing No difference in debt paydown
• Liquidity constrained show: Larger reduction in credit card debt No increase in new auto debt financing
• Complex interaction across measures of wealth and liquidity constraints Traditional response: Lower-wealth households are more
responsive to income shock, but less so if they have a large credit card debt burden

Empirical Strategy• Exploit regional variation in share of ARMs
Regions with more ARMs more “exposed” to lower rates Similar to Mian and Sufi (2011) and Agarwal et al. (2012) in the
context of “Cash-for-clunkers” and HAMP programs
• Ex-ante measure of exposure to interest rate declines Zip code ARM share as of Q2 2007 predicts treatment intensity
• Construct sample of similar zip codesMatched on observables (FICO, LTV, interest rate, etc.) Similar results in IV framework (using all zips)
• Investigate impact on economic outcomesMortgage defaults, house prices, durable consumption (auto) and
employment

• All of the employment response comes from non-tradable sector e.g. restaurants and grocery stores
![Page 27: Mortgage Rates, Household Balance Sheets, and Real Economy · 2016. 10. 27. · Associated with 36% relative decrease in mortgage default (1.8 pp) • Diff-in-diffs Identification](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022071217/604d3a364e46a9442f17ddc8/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
27
Discussion• Low interest rate policies have had meaningful impact on
household spending and broader economy Supports view that shocks to household balance sheets important
factor affecting employment Will we see reversal when stimulus withdrawn?
• Partial estimates suggest that 20% relative reduction in average mortgage rates in a region results in: +3.5% increase in the annual house price growth rate +5% increase in the annual auto purchase growth rate +3% increase in the non-tradable employment growth rate
• Caveats: Cannot quantify overall impact (GE effects) Generic limitation of diff-in-diffs regional analyses

Conclusions• Household debt deleveraging can significantly limit the
ability to simulate household consumption Significant part of stimulus due to lower rates transferred to the
banking sector Target polices to alleviate high cost of credit card debt?
• ARM contracts facilitate simple transmission of policy Avoid institutional frictions impacting HARP and HAMP Circumvent inability to refinance (e.g. due to negative equity)
