An important question is what is the objective of the regression

it was intended for academic research in Economics. If it is not, then
Nick's advice is fine

It could be inefficiency to society, in which case Banks are highly inefficient, because they are discriminating Monopolies, it could be inefficiency of the Bank, namely the Bank does not maximizes profit, and it could be inefficiency in terms of rational expectation theory, namely price movements in the market are not random.
