General equilibrium real and nominal interest rates
We derive the general equilibrium short-term real and nominal interest rates in a monetary economy affected by technological and monetary shocks and where the price level dynamics is endogenous. Assuming fairly general processes for technology and money supply, we show that an inherent feature of our equilibrium is that any real variable dynamics, in particular that of the short-term real inter...
متن کاملReal Interest Rates, Saving and Investment
This paper investigates the determinants of real interest rates at world and country level. The starting point is the idea that real interest rates re°ect the interaction of desired saving and planned investment, using the framework developed by Barro and Sala-i-Martin (1990) and Barro (1992). The paper updates previous results and extends the analysis to study long real interest rates. We anal...
متن کاملWhy Are Inflation and Real Interest Rates So Low? A Mechanism of Low and Floating Real Interest and Inflation Rates
Real interest and inflation rates have been very low in many industrialized countries since the Great Recession. In this paper, a mechanism of low and floating real interest and inflation rates is examined based on the concept a “Nash equilibrium of a Pareto inefficient path” and the law of motion for trend inflation. I show that, because the link between the marginal product of capital and the...
متن کاملLow Real Interest Rates and the Zero Lower Bound
How do low real interest rates constrain monetary policy? Is the zero lower bound optimal if the real interest rate is suffi ciently low? What is the role of forward guidance? A model is constructed that can incorporate sticky price frictions, collateral constraints, and conventional monetary distortions. The model has neo-Fisherian properties. Forward guidance in a liquidity trap works through...
متن کاملReal Interest Rates and Index Linked Gilts D . Robertson And
This paper derives the ex ante paths of the future expected short (one period) real interest rates at quarterly frequency from observations on the prices of a set of UK index linked bonds. These rates are used to investigate the impact of monetary policy and the nature of expectations formation in the bond market. This paper was produced as part of the Centre's Programme on National Economic Pe...
