The Zero Lower Bound
In the standard New Keynesian model, monetary policy is often described by an interest rate rule (e.g. a Taylor rule) that moves the interest rate in response to deviations of inflation and some measure of economic activity from target. Nominal interest rates are bound from below by 0 – since money is storable, one would never accept a negative nominal return. How does the behavior of the NK mo...
متن کاملOptimal Monetary Policy at the Zero Lower Bound
We study optimal monetary policy at the zero lower bound. The macroeconomy we study has considerable income inequality which gives rise to a large private sector credit market. Households participating in this market use non-state contingent nominal contracts (NSCNC). A second, small group of households only uses cash and cannot participate in the credit market. The monetary authority supplies ...
متن کاملChanging Macroeconomic Dynamics at the Zero Lower Bound
This paper develops a change-point VAR model that isolates four major macroeconomic regimes in the US since the 1960s. The model identifies shocks to demand, supply, monetary policy, and spread yield using restrictions from a general equilibrium model. The analysis discloses important changes to the statistical properties of key macroeconomic variables and their responses to the identified shoc...
متن کاملWhat does Monetary Policy do at the Zero Lower Bound?
The federal funds rate has been stuck at the zero bound for over two years, and the Fed has instead resorted to unconventional monetary policies, such as large scale asset purchases to provide stimulus to the economy. This paper uses a structural VAR to identify the e¤ects of monetary policy shocks on the con guration of interest rates during this period. The VAR is identi ed using the assumpti...
متن کاملDoes Calvo Meet Rotemberg at the Zero Lower Bound?∗
This paper compares the Calvo model with the Rotemberg model in a fully nonlinear dynamic new Keynesian framework with an occasionally binding zero lower bound (ZLB) on nominal interest rates. Although the two models are equivalent to a first-order approximation, they generate very different results regarding the policy functions and the government spending multiplier based on nonlinear solutio...
