Time-consistent policies

چکیده
In many cases the optimal open-loop policy to influence agents who solve dynamic problems is time-inconsistent. We show how to construct a time-consistent open-loop policy rule. We also consider an additional restriction under which the time-consistent openloop policy is stationary. We use examples to illustrate the properties of these tax rules.

In very, simple words, time inconsistency means failing to conduct programs in consistence with time. In other words, time inconsistency refers to a situation where economic decision-makers preferences transform a long time in a way that what they preferred at a certain time point is not consistent with their preferences at other time points. In everyday life, we always face time inconsistency....
متن کاملIs it time to shed some light on the black box of health policies regarding the inhabitants of the high background radiation areas of Ramsar?
Although there are substantial experimental, epidemiological and clinical evidences that high doses of ionizing radiation cause cancer and other detrimental biological effects, the health effects of human exposure to chronic low dose radiation exposures are still poorly known. People in some areas around the world live in dwellings with radiation and radon levels as much as more than 2...
متن کاملOptimal time-consistent investment and reinsurance policies for mean-variance insurers
This paper investigates the optimal time-consistent policies of an investment-reinsurance problem and an investment-only problem under the mean-variance criterion for an insurer whose surplus process is approximated by a Brownianmotionwith drift. The financial market considered by the insurer consists of one risk-free asset and multiple risky assets whose price processes follow geometric Browni...
متن کاملThe Role of Policies Governing Urban Land Development in Sari
Land is the most important factor in the physical development of cities; land management has now become one of the most important concerns and concerns of local governments. Also, the sprawling growth of cities has degraded the environment and natural resources around the cities. Meanwhile, due to inadequate and accelerated decision-making, some of the inner-city and inter-contextual capacity o...
متن کاملTime consistent Markov policies in dynamic economies with quasi-hyperbolic consumers
We study the question of existence and computation of time-consistent Markov policies of quasi-hyperbolic consumers under a stochastic transition technology in a general class of economies with multidimensional action spaces and uncountable state spaces. Under standard complementarity assumptions on preferences, as well as a mild geometric condition on a transition probabilities, we prove exist...
متن کاملThe Time Consistency of Monetary and Fiscal Policies
Are optimal monetary and fiscal policies time consistent in a monetary economy? Yes, but if and only if under commitment the Friedman rule of setting nominal interest rates to zero is optimal. This result is of applied interest because the Friedman rule is optimal for the standard preferences used in applied work, those consistent with the growth facts. ∗Alvarez, University of Chicago, Universi...
