Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ten years after the 2008 financial crisis we are again facing the possibility of economic turmoil as the Fed and other central banks exit their unconventional monetary policies by raising interest rates and shrinking their balance sheets. This book brings together leading scholars and former policymakers to draw lessons from the decade of unconventional monetary policies relied upon to stimulate the global economy in the aftermath of the financial crisis. The articles included in this book combine historical perspectives and forward-looking views of the Fed’s exit strategy and monetary normalization, along with the arguments for a rules-based monetary policy both at the domestic and international levels.

Book excerpt: The euro area economy is emerging from a very pronounced crisis which has added complexity to achieving the price stability objective. The ECB has implemented an array of monetary policy instruments which are working their way through the economy and are proving to be very effective in supporting the recovery. By acting as it has, the ECB has continued to show that it will always respond to its communicated reaction function and thereby, reassure the public of its commitment to its fulfilling its mandate.
Download or read book Central Banking in Theory and Practice written by Alan S. Blinder and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 1999-01-07 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alan S. Blinder offers the dual perspective of a leading academic macroeconomist who served a stint as Vice-Chairman of the Federal Reserve Board—one who practiced what he had long preached and then returned to academia to write about it. He tells central bankers how they might better incorporate academic knowledge and thinking into the conduct of monetary policy, and he tells scholars how they might reorient their research to be more attuned to reality and thus more useful to central bankers. Based on the 1996 Lionel Robbins Lectures, this readable book deals succinctly, in a nontechnical manner, with a wide variety of issues in monetary policy. The book also includes the author's suggested solution to an age-old problem in monetary theory: what it means for monetary policy to be "neutral."

Download or read book Inflation Expectations written by Peter J. N. Sinclair and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-12-16 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inflation is regarded by the many as a menace that damages business and can only make life worse for households. Keeping it low depends critically on ensuring that firms and workers expect it to be low. So expectations of inflation are a key influence on national economic welfare. This collection pulls together a galaxy of world experts (including Roy Batchelor, Richard Curtin and Staffan Linden) on inflation expectations to debate different aspects of the issues involved. The main focus of the volume is on likely inflation developments. A number of factors have led practitioners and academic observers of monetary policy to place increasing emphasis recently on inflation expectations. One is the spread of inflation targeting, invented in New Zealand over 15 years ago, but now encompassing many important economies including Brazil, Canada, Israel and Great Britain. Even more significantly, the European Central Bank, the Bank of Japan and the United States Federal Bank are the leading members of another group of monetary institutions all considering or implementing moves in the same direction. A second is the large reduction in actual inflation that has been observed in most countries over the past decade or so. These considerations underscore the critical – and largely underrecognized - importance of inflation expectations. They emphasize the importance of the issues, and the great need for a volume that offers a clear, systematic treatment of them. This book, under the steely editorship of Peter Sinclair, should prove very important for policy makers and monetary economists alike.
Download or read book Monetary Policy and Uncertainty written by Res Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City and published by . This book was released on 2004-07 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most difficult challenges facing central banks is how to conduct monetary policy in an uncertain economic environment. This challenge is magnified when ongoing changes in the structure of the economy make economic models and forecasts less reliable. How should policymakers act in an environment of increased uncertainty? Should they be more cautious and wait for additional information about the economy that might reduce uncertainty? Or, should they react more aggressively in an attempt to keep the economy on course? In designing monetary policy in an uncertain world, how much should policymakers depend on formal rules, and how much should they rely on judgment? To address these questions, the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City sponsored a symposium, titled, "Monetary Policy and Uncertainty: Adapting to a Changing Economy," at Jackson Hole, Wyoming, on August 28-30, 2003. The symposium brought together a distinguished group of central bank officials, academic economists, and business economists to discuss and debate these issues. Over the years, the Jackson Hole symposium has provided a forum for the exchange of ideas on important public policy issues of interest to central banks around the world. Its continuing success is due to the contributions of all those who participate, including authors, discussants, panelists, and audience members. Special thanks also go to Craig Hakkio, Gordon Sellon, and other members of the Bank's Research Division who developed this year's program. Thomas M. Hoenig President and Chief Executive Officer Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City
Download or read book Uncertainty and Monetary Policy in the US written by Giovanni Pellegrino and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper estimates a non-linear Interacted VAR model to assess whether the real effects ofmonetary policy shocks are milder during times of high uncertainty. Crucially,uncertainty, i.e. the conditioning indicator discriminating "high" and "low" uncertaintystates, is modeled endogenously in the VAR and is found to significantly decrease after anunanticipated monetary easing. Generalized Impulse Response Functions à la Koop,Pesaran and Potter (1996), which take into account the effect of this decrease, revealthat monetary policy shocks are significantly less powerful during uncertain times, the peakreactions of a battery of real variables being about two-thirds milder than those duringtranquil times. The endogenous decrease in uncertainty is shown to be key to estimateprecisely the effects of monetary policy shocks.

This book was released on 2017 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper estimates a nonlinear Interacted-VAR model to investigate whether the effectiveness of monetary policy shocks in the Euro area is influenced by the level of European uncertainty. Generalized Impulse Response Functions à la Koop et al. (1996) suggest that the peak and cumulative effects of monetary policy shocks are lower during uncertain times than during tranquil times, and significantly so once times of very high and very low uncertainty are considered.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The monetary side of domestic and international economic policy has generated increasingly intense debate and concern within and among the major industrial countries over the last several years. Recently, the Bank of Japan's Institute for Monetary and Economic Studies brought together leading academics and prominent economists of central banks and international organizations to analyze and discuss the key problems and issues of monetary policy of developed countries. Collected in this volume are their original contributions: eight essays that cover monetary policy in an uncertain world, domestic and international aspects of monetary policy, and policies to overcome stagflation. In particular, they recognize and provide a lively forum for the different views of academic and central bank economists. The essays are "Monetarism in Rhetoric and in Practice," by Milton Friedman; "Monetary Policy in an Uncertain World," by James Tobin; "The Conduct of Domestic Monetary Policy," by Robert Gorden; "Monetary Policy in Postwar Japan," by K. Hamada and F. Hayashi; "Monetary Policy in the Large Open Economy," by Michael Darby; "Alternative Approaches to Exchange-Rate Determination and Some Implications of the Structural Balance-of-Payments Approach for International Macroeconomic Interdependence," by Akihiro Amano; "'Reaganomics' and Credibility," by Thomas Sargent; and "Coordination of Monetary and Fiscal Policies," by Albert Ando.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This timely volume presents the latest thinking on the monetary policy rules and seeks to determine just what types of rules and policy guidelines function best. A unique cooperative research effort that allowed contributors to evaluate different policy rules using their own specific approaches, this collection presents their striking findings on the potential response of interest rates to an array of variables, including alterations in the rates of inflation, unemployment, and exchange. Monetary Policy Rules illustrates that simple policy rules are more robust and more efficient than complex rules with multiple variables. A state-of-the-art appraisal of the fundamental issues facing the Federal Reserve Board and other central banks, Monetary Policy Rules is essential reading for economic analysts and policymakers alike.
Download or read book Bank Liquidity Creation and Financial Crises written by Allen N. Berger and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2015-11-24 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bank Liquidity Creation and Financial Crises delivers a consistent, logical presentation of bank liquidity creation and addresses questions of research and policy interest that can be easily understood by readers with no advanced or specialized industry knowledge. Authors Allen Berger and Christa Bouwman examine ways to measure bank liquidity creation, how much liquidity banks create in different countries, the effects of monetary policy (including interest rate policy, lender of last resort, and quantitative easing), the effects of capital, the effects of regulatory interventions, the effects of bailouts, and much more. They also analyze bank liquidity creation in the US over the past three decades during both normal times and financial crises. Narrowing the gap between the "academic world" (focused on theories) and the "practitioner world" (dedicated to solving real-world problems), this book is a helpful new tool for evaluating a bank's performance over time and comparing it to its peer group. - Explains that bank liquidity creation is a more comprehensive measure of a bank's output than traditional measures and can also be used to measure bank liquidity - Describes how high levels of bank liquidity creation may cause or predict future financial crises - Addresses questions of research and policy interest related to bank liquidity creation around the world and provides links to websites with data and other materials to address these questions - Includes such hot-button topics as the effects of monetary policy (including interest rate policy, lender of last resort, and quantitative easing), the effects of capital, the effects of regulatory interventions, and the effects of bailouts
