Abstract: In this paper we provide evidence that the effects of the ECB�s asset purchase programmes spill over into CESEE countries, contributing to easing their financial conditions both in the short and in the long term through different transmission channels. In the short term, a number of variables in CESEE financial markets appear to respond to news related to the ECB�s non-standard policies by moving in the expected direction. Over a longer-term horizon, we found that cross-border portfolio and banking capital flows towards CESEE economies have been ffected by both the announcement and the actual implementation of the ECB�s asset purchase programmes, pointing to the existence of a portfolio rebalancing and a banking liquidity channel.
