Indicator Variables for Optimal Policy ∗
نویسنده
چکیده
The optimal weights on indicators in models with partial information about the state of the economy and forward-looking variables are derived and interpreted, both for equilibria under discretion and under commitment. An example of optimal monetary policy with a partially observable potential output and a forward-looking indicator is examined. The optimal response to the optimal estimate of potential output displays certainty equivalence, whereas the optimal response to the imperfect observation of output depends on the noise in this observation. JEL Classification: E37, E47, E52, E58

متن کاملOptimal Policy Rules for Iran in a DSGE Framework (Islamic Musharakah Approach)
The aim of this paper is determination of an optimal policy rule for Iranian economy from an Islamic perspective. This study draws on an Islamic instrument known as the Musharakah contract to design a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model. In this model the interest rate is no longer considered as a monetary policy instrument and the focus is on the impact of economic shocks on the Dynam...

متن کاملOptimal Stopping Policy for Multivariate Sequences a Generalized Best Choice Problem
In the classical versions of “Best Choice Problem”, the sequence of offers is a random sample from a single known distribution. We present an extension of this problem in which the sequential offers are random variables but from multiple independent distributions. Each distribution function represents a class of investment or offers. Offers appear without any specified order. The objective is...
متن کاملOil Price Shock and Optimal Monetary Policy in a Model of Small Open Oil Exporting Economy - Case of Iran
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...
