Optimal 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.

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...

In particular, the government’s credibility not to expropriate foreign capital endogenousl...

Instead, monetary targeting and, depending on the parameter combination, producer price index targeting co...

These innovations, when they are positive, decrease income an...
