Fiscal policy, public debt and monetary policy in EMEs: an overview
نویسنده
چکیده
Since the beginning of 2000s, however, the role of fiscal and monetary policy has started to become more active. Fiscal deficits and public debt levels in EMEs as a whole have declined substantially. Domestic financing has increased, and the share of foreign currency debt has fallen dramatically. And the average public debt maturity has lengthened significantly. What do these developments mean for monetary policy, particularly in the context of the recent global financial crisis? Has the threat of fiscal dominance in EMEs lessened, just when it has grown in the advanced economies (BIS (2012))? Have fiscal and monetary policies in EMEs become more countercyclical than in the past? Has the development of domestic bond markets helped? What role have central banks played in debt management and what are the implications for monetary policy?

متن کاملInflation dynamics: The role of public debt and policy regimes

Moreover, a higher level of public de...

متن کاملPublic Debt and the Price Level ∗

Particular attention is given to the effects of fiscal policy upon the price level through the wealth ef...
