Endogenous Growth, Monetary Shocks and Nominal Rigidities
نویسندگان
چکیده
We introduce endogenous growth in an otherwise standard NK model with staggered prices and wages. Some results follow: (i) monetary volatility negatively affects long-run growth; (ii) the relation between nominal volatility and growth depends on the persistence of the nominal shocks and on the Taylor rule considered; (iii) a Taylor rule with smoothing increases the negative effect of nominal volatility on mean growth.

Labour market search and monetary shocks
In recent years, dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) models of monetary economies have focused on the role of nominal rigidities in affecting the economy’s adjustment to monetary policy and non-policy disturbances. While these rigidities appear important for understanding the impact nominal shocks have on such real variables as output and employment, models with only nominal rigiditie...
متن کاملAn Estimated Canadian DSGE Model with Nominal and Real Rigidities
This paper develops a dynamic, stochastic, general-equilibrium (DSGE) model for the Canadian economy and evaluates the real effects of monetary policy shocks. To generate high and persistent real effects, the model combines nominal frictions in the form of costly price adjustment with real rigidities modelled as convex costs of adjusting capital and employment. The structural parameters identif...

T he consequences of the decisions and policies taken for the reconstruction of Afghanistan during the past decade, showed that there should be paid more attention to the monetary policies.

متن کاملThe University of Manchester Discussion Paper Series Growth , Cycles and Stabilisation Policy
This paper presents an analysis of the joint determination of growth and business cycles with the view to studying the long-run implications of short-term monetary stabilisation policy. The analysis is based on a simple stochastic growth model in which both real and nominal shocks have permanent effects on output due to nominal rigidities (wage contracts) and an endogenous technology (learning-...
متن کاملMonetary policy for rationally inattentive economies with staggered price setting
The paper examines the optimal monetary policy when firms are constrained by information processing capability and infrequent price adjustments. Firms' information processing limit gives rise to imperfect knowledge about macroeconomic aggregates and endogenous information learning contingent on the monetary policy. Staggered price setting introduces the observed price duration and additional po...
