This paper investigates how the specific characteristics of Peruvian banks can have different effects on the supply of loans, the bank lending channel and the impact of variation in metal prices. The analysis is made for both the domestic and foreign currency, which is a special characteristic of the Peruvian case, and we use loan-level data and information on bank balance sheets. The methodology consists on a panel data model with fixed effect following Jimenez et al. (2012) and Gambacorta and Marques-Ibanez (2011).
