Zusammenfassung: 
Using a customized survey and an information-provision experiment, we establish that loan officers' individual subjective expectations about inflation, GDP growth, and policy rates vary substantially within and across bank types and have a sizable causal effect on credit supply decisions. Decisions about loan issuance and pricing exhibit large heterogeneity based on loan officers' subjective expectations even for the same borrower assessed at the same time. Moreover, officers with rosier macroeconomic expectations penalize less borrowers with worsening fundamentals than do officers with more pessimistic expectations. Our findings have implications for theories of financial intermediation and reveal an overlooked human-based friction to the transmission of monetary policy.
