Optimal Monetary Impulse-Response Functions in a Matching Model∗
نویسندگان
چکیده
The effects on ex ante optima of a lag in seeing monetary realizations are studied using a matching model of money. The main new ingredient in the model is meetings in which producers have more information than consumers. A consequence is that increases in the amount of money that occur with small enough probability can have negative impact effects on output, because it is optimal to shut down trade in such low probability meetings rather than have lower output when high probability realizations occur. The information lag also produces prices that do not respond much to current monetary realizations. JEL classification #’s: E30, E40, D82.

The Effects of Monetary Policy on Output and Inflation in Afghanistan: A Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium Approach
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. There is also a question that whether monetary policies have the potential to affect the production and inflation in Afghanistan or not. The aim of this paper is to explore this effect by designin...
متن کاملInflation and Output in a Cash Constrained Economy
We examine permanent effects of monetary expansion in an economy where access to credit for financing consumption and investment is limited and consumers and firms are cash-constrained. The main difference between our model with those of Cooley-Hanson (1989) and Walsh (2003) is that investment, in addition to consumption, is subject to a cash-constraint. In this respect, our model is...
متن کاملThe Impacts of Monetary Policy on Macroeconomic Variables Assuming the Collateral Constraint
This study aimed to examine the effects of monetary policy on macroeconomic variables with regard to the collateral constraint. For this purpose, a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) was developed for Iran’s economic status. Two scenarios were considered as to account for the behavior of the central bank. In the first scenario, the monetary rule is modeled according to the GDP gap an...
متن کاملAn E ffi cient Impulse Response Matching Estimator for Rational Expectations Models
This paper proposes an efficient estimator for rational expectations models that consists in mapping the impulse responses from the data to the structural coefficients of the model. The data-based impulse responses are estimated by local projections, which are robust to misspecification, and provide an estimate of the impulse responses’ variance-covariance matrix. This matrix is then used to ob...
متن کاملHow can the change of Basel Capital Requirements affect the Monetary Policy Impact on the Iranian Economy and Banking System?
In this study, we examined the effects of monetary policy shocks on the performance of the Iranian macroeconomy and the banking system, under the different situations of the Basel II and III capital requirements regulations. By developing a DSGE Model and according to its structural shocks, four observable variables including output gap, bank capital adequacy, inflation, and money base growth r...
