Instead, monetary targeting and, depending on the parameter combination, producer price index targeting co...
متن کاملMeasuring monetary policy for a small open economy: Turkey
This paper proposes a measure to assess the monetary policy for a highly inflationary small open economy: Turkey. The empirical evidence suggests that positive innovations in the spread between the Central Bank’s interbank interest rate and the depreciation rate of the local currency mimic the properties of the tight monetary policy. These innovations, when they are positive, decrease income an...

Oil price shocks are the main source of macroeconomic fluctuations in oil exporting countries. It is believed that appropriate monetary policy can help to stabilize these unwanted variations toward optimal allocations. A stochastic dynamic general equilibrium model featuring the properties of both cost push and wealth effect transmission channels is developed for the Iranian economy. In thi...
متن کاملOptimal and Time Consistent Monetary and Fiscal Policy in a Small Open Economy
This paper shows that optimal fiscal and monetary policy is generally time consistent in a standard small open economy. Further, there exist many maturity structures of public debt capable of rendering the optimal policy time consistent. This result is in sharp contrast with that obtained by others in the context of closedeconomy models. In the closed economy, the time consistency of optimal mo...
متن کاملOptimal Monetary and Fiscal Policy at the Zero Lower Bound in a Small Open Economy∗
We study optimal monetary and fiscal policy at the zero lower bound in a small open economy model with sticky prices and a flexible exchange rate. In such a liquidity trap situation, the economy suffers from a negative output gap, producer price deflation, and an appreciated real exchange rate (compared to its efficient level). The extent of these adverse effects and the duration of the liquidi...
