Reconnoitering the effective Channels of Monetary Transmission Mechanism in Iran Using a Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium Model

Authors

Abstract:

The purpose of the present research is to investigate the effective channels of the monetary transmission mechanism in Iran. To do so, we devised a New Keynesian Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium Model. In our model, the different types of nominal rigidities are introduced beside all the related structural equations, which are extracted and linearized around a steady state point. Furthermore, to design the DSGE model, two different monetary rules—Taylor and McCallum rules—are used. In other words, the different channels of monetary mechanisms are investigated on the basis of these two rules. To estimate the two mentioned models, seasonal data for the period 1990–2015 are collected. The estimation method used in the study is the Bayesian method. According to the results obtained from variance decomposition, in the Taylor rule-based, q-Tobin, interest rate, wealth and expectation channels are the effective channels in monetary transmission mechanisms; also, in the McCallum rule-based model monetary policy, wealth and expectation channels are the effective channels in monetary transmission mechanisms. In addition, based on the simulation results in the Taylor model, increasing interest rate causes a reduction in output, consumption, investment and capital utilization rate, and in the McCallum model, a positive monetary shock can cause an increase in preceding variables, which is a result of price rigidity.

The Role of International Financial Integration in Production and Inflation Fluctuations in Iran: Using a Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium Model

The effects of International financial integration on the fluctuations of variables in response to shocks are a matter of heavily concentrated literature of the business cycle in recent years. In this paper, a New Keynesian DSGE model is developed in which there is a channel for capital account changes through the foreign deposit's inflow and outflow. Then the effects of financial integration a...

Implementation of VAT on Iran banking services in the context of dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model

In the Value Added Tax (VAT) system some goods and services, such as banking services, are exempted from taxes. Based on theoretical foundations, exempt treatment leads to several distortions and inefficiencies in the economy. In order to understand the importance of exemption on macroeconomic fluctuations as well as the fundamental role of financial intermediaries in economy shocks, this study...

Sentiment Shock and Stock Price Bubbles in a Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium Model Framework: The Case of Iran

In this study, a model of Bayesian Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) from Real Business Cycles (RBC) approach with the aim of identifying the factors shaping price bubbles of Tehran Stock Exchange (TSE) was specified. The above-mentioned model was conducted in two scenarios. In the first scenario, the baseline model with sentiment shock was examined. In this model, stock price bubbl...
