Designing Monetary Policy : Backward - Looking Interest - Rate Rules ∗
When real balances have even a very small productive role, contemporaneous and forwardlooking Taylor-Wicksell rules can induce ubiquitous multiplicities of equilibria and lead to consequences that are unintended by policymakers. This raises the issue of whether it is possible to anchor and stabilize the economy through backward-looking rules. We show that the standard uniqueness results that ar...
متن کاملBackward - Looking Interest - Rate Rules , Interest Rate Smoothing , and Macroeconomic Instability ∗
The existing literature on the stabilizing properties of interest-rate feedback rules has stressed the perils of linking interest rates to forecasts of future inflation. Such rules have been found to give rise to aggregate fluctuations due to self-fulfilling expectations. In response to this concern, a growing literature has focused on the stabilizing properties of interest-rate rules whereby t...
متن کاملInterest Rate Policies in Consumption - Savings Dynamic Models
We examine the effect of interest rate policies on an agent’s consumption and savings when her income is fluctuating. In each period a long-lived agent decides how much to save (i.e., invest in a risk-free bond) and how much to consume while her income is uncertain and depends on the state of the economy. The central bank, on the other hand, fixes a policy, called an interest rate policy, which...
متن کاملWhere Forward-Looking and Backward-Looking Models Meet
The present paper begins by deriving an instantaneous formulation for the backwardlooking (reinforcement based learning) satisfaction balance model of Gray and Tallman (1984). This model is then used to generate interactional data from four simulated agents in a network interaction experiment. Because this initial model does not generate stable interaction structures in the network experiment, ...
متن کاملForward Looking Estimates of Interest Rate Distributions ∗
This paper reviews methods for extracting both risk-neutral and physical density forecasts for interest rates. It presents some applications, with particular focus on issues pertaining to forward guidance and the zero lower bound. Several important applied questions in macroeconomics and monetary economics can be very directly addressed using the wealth of information in interest rate derivativ...
