Long-Term Interest Rates and Inflation: A Fisherian Approach
I n recent years, Federal Reserve (Fed) policymakers have come to rely on long-term bond yields to measure the public’s long-term inflationary expectations. The long-term bond rate plays a central role in Goodfriend’s (1993) narrative account of Fed behavior, 1979–1992, which links policyrelated movements in the federal funds rate to changes in the yield on long-term U.S. Treasury bonds. Accord...
متن کاملExploring Determinants of Long-Term Interest Rates
In South Africa, long-term interest rates have often been high in real terms and relatively volatile, although they declined somewhat in recent years (Figure 13.1). This chapter attempts to show that this decline is due not only to an improved external capital market but also to the strong progress made in macroeconomic management. In particular, the implementation of policy measures, such as d...
متن کاملMonetary Policy and Long-term Interest Rates
This paper documents some new empirical results about the monetary policy and long-term interest rates in the United States. It shows that changes in the monetary policy stance are more predictable to the bond market in the 1990s than in the 1970s. This shift in the predictability of the monetary policy actions affects the policy’s impact on long-term interest rates as well as the forecasting p...
متن کاملExplaining the Increased Variability in Long-Term Interest Rates
M onetary policy affects the macroeconomy only indirectly. In the standard mechanism, changes in the federal funds rate, the Federal Reserve’s main policy instrument, lead to changes in longer-term interest rates, which in turn lead to changes in aggregate demand. But the links between the funds rate, long rates, and demand may be far from tight, and this potential slippage is a fundamental pro...
متن کاملInternational Linkages in Short- and Long-term Interest Rates
This paper examines interest rate linkages in the G7 economies by testing for cointegration and employing the causality testing method for unstable systems recently introduced by Toda and Yamamoto (1995), which results in standard asymptotics. Our results show that whilst domestic macroeconomic variables are important determinants of long-term interest rates, international linkages play a major...
