Book excerpt: The reform measures focus on three key objectives: (i) reducing the probability of severe stress, (ii) decreasing the financial and economic impact of severe stress, and (iii) restoring integrity and confidence in the financial system to promote global financial and economic integration. [...] The remainder of this note (i) summarizes the key measures and implementation schedules of the financial regulatory reform agenda since the financial crisis, both internationally and in Canada; (ii) reviews the effectiveness of the reform measures in preventing and addressing financial imbalances; and (iii) reviews outstanding issues. [...] Additional challenges relate to (i) the inadequacy of the pre-crisis conditions to serve as an appropriate benchmark against which to judge the effects of reforms, including the unsustainable business models of many financial institutions; (ii) the difficulty in isolating the effects of reforms from other factors such as changes in technology, demography and more general preferences; (iii). [...] According to the FSB, the introduction of the requirement, as well as improved bank resolution regimes, is estimated to reduce the cost of a financial crisis by 5.4 percentage points of GDP.35 Further, academic literature reviewed by the FSB suggests that enhancements to resolution decrease the 29 Although subsidies still appear to persist. [...] Although the G20 and the FSB are putting greater emphasis on monitoring implementation and outcomes to ensure that the spirit of the international reforms is not compromised, the pace of implementation has been uneven and there have been inconsistencies in implementation across jurisdictions.

Book excerpt: Cyclical measures While regulatory and supervisory measures traditionally increase the resilience of the financial system and lead to greater financial stability in the long run, their countercyclical application over the cycle-tightening more at the time of the buildup of imbalances-affects the short-run outlook (see, for example, Stein 2013; Kohn 2013; and Bean 2014). [...] The experience of Switzerland in using the CCyB to address imbalances in the housing sector suggests that it might have been effective.10 However, the experience of Norway suggests that, while the CCyB can be useful for signalling systemic risk from cyclical imbalances and the need for increased resilience, it is not an effective instrument for fine-tuning the economy or the financial cycle. [...] The effectiveness of monetary policy leaning, therefore, often depends on financial system conditions at the time of the policy change, and on their reaction to this change relative to the responses of macroeconomic variables. [...] For example, the response of house prices affects the value of collateral and hence the amount of household borrowing; the resulting debt-to-income ratio affects the sensitivity of the consumption response (Bruneau et al. [...] Dudley goes on to say that the dramatic tightening of financial market conditions, in the wake of the financial crisis in 2008, proved the degree of monetary accommodation to be insufficient, and the economy went into a sharp contraction In all, variation in the pass-through of monetary policy to the economy resulting from developments in financial system conditions raises the question of whether.
Download or read book Inflation Targeting and Financial Stability written by Michael Heise and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-02-26 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the financial crisis of 2008/09, the world’s major central banks have been struggling to return their economies to higher growth and to reach their inflation targets. This concise book analyzes the importance of central bank policies for the economy, and specifically investigates the reasons why they have failed to steer inflation as desired. The author, the Chief Economist at Allianz SE, argues that, in an environment of great uncertainty concerning the pass-through of monetary stimulus to the economy, central banks should not focus too narrowly on inflation targets, but should increasingly take the side effects of their actions into account. In particular, he contends that they must seek to minimize the risk of financial booms and busts in order to maximize long-term growth and prosperity. Building on existing research and contributing to the current debate, the book offers a valuable reference guide and food for thought for policymakers, professionals and students alike.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Financial lubrication in markets is indifferent to margin posting via money or collateral; the relative price(s) of money and collateral matter. Some central banks are now a major player in the collateral markets. Analogous to a coiled spring, the larger the quantitative easing (QE) efforts, the longer the central banks will impact the collateral market and associated repo rate. This may have monetary policy and financial stability implications since the repo rates map the financial landscape that straddles the bank/nonbank nexus.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the Bank of England was made independent in 1997, the conduct of monetary policy has been relatively uncontroversial. The debates between Keyneisans, monetarists and supporters of fixed exchange rate mechanisms now appear very distant. Despite the apparent consensus there are many issues related to the conduct of monetary policy that are not yet settled and which will soon come to the fore. Is the current form of independence for the Bank of England appropriate? Should a central bank target inflation or the prices level? How does a central bank deal with asset price deflation? Should more account be taken of monetary aggregates? Should central banks target asset prices? What is the relationship between the money supply and asset price inflation? How should central banks ensure financial stability? The IEA was at the forefront of changing the parameters of the debate surrounding monetary policy in the 1970s and 1980s. This text, brings together some of the leading authors in the field, including the current Governor of the Bank of England, to discuss current issues in monetary policy and the relationship between monetary policy and financial markets. It is appropriate for undergraduates and postgraduates in economics and finance as well as for practitioners in financial markets.
Download or read book Monetary Policy and Financial Stability written by Janet Louise Yellen and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2015-08-28 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The issue of using monetary policy for financial stability purposes is hotly contested. The crisis was a reminder that price stability is not sufficient for financial stability, financial crises are costly, and policy should aim to decrease the likelihood of crises, not only rely on dealing with their repercussions once they occur. It is clear that well-targeted prudential policies (including micro and macroprudential regulation and supervision) should be pursued actively to attenuate the buildup of financial risks. The question is whether monetary policy should be altered to contain financial stability risks. Should it lend a hand by temporarily raising interest rates more than warranted by price and output stability objectives? Keeping rates persistently higher is also possible, but more costly.

Book excerpt: The analysis concludes that these measures have broadly achieved their goal of increasing the overall resilience of the financial system to the buildup of imbalances and increasing the financial system's ability to withstand adverse shocks. [...] This overview is followed by a discussion of existing evidence of the effectiveness of macroprudential tools in achieving their ultimate goal of increasing the stability of the financial system. [...] Macroprudential policy tools can be used to safeguard the system by increasing the resilience of the financial system to aggregate systemic shocks by building buffers that absorb their impact and maintain the ability of the financial system to provide credit to the economy. [...] LTEIG estimates that the introduction of the Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR) requirement reduces the likelihood of systemic crises by 10 to 20 per 8 The Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions (OSFI) provides data on the capital ratios of Canadian banks. [...] An important caveat in the ability of macroprudential tools to build resilience is the issue of leakages (policy action undermined by the actions of agents unaffected by the policy), regulatory avoidance (agents within the regulatory perimeter able to reduce the impact of the policy action), and the need for international policy coordination (because the effectiveness of policies in one jurisdicti.

This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Due to the lack of political salience that financial stability policy enjoys in tranquil economic times, this policy field lends itself particularly well to capture – the more so the more important the role of banks is in the financial system. Gundbert Scherf’s research focuses on this nexus between integrated banking, supranational monetary policy and national banking regulation. He finds that national level differences in financial systems and related institutions explain and drive variation in regulatory financial stability policy across countries.
Download or read book Monetary Policy and Financial Stability written by Ioanna T. Kokores and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2022-12-08 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores how monetary policy contributes to the efficient allocation of resources, with special reference made to the contribution of the effective workings of the financial system. It argues that the stability of the financial system promotes the smooth functioning of the payment systems and the effective transmission of monetary policy, thus promoting the achievement of monetary policy objectives. The interrelated issues addressed here include the ways various monetary policy objectives are achieved, their effective presentation to the public, and the strategic role of money growth in the conduct of monetary policy. The analysis underlines the context of financial-market performance in recent decades and the varied central bank responses to the emergence of the global financial crisis. This book constitutes a useful companion to graduate students in economics, researchers and business and central banking practitioners in understanding the unending quest of the shifting roles of money and financial practices to reconcile growth and stability.
Download or read book What Have We Learned written by George A. Akerlof and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2016-09-02 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Top economists consider how to conduct policy in a world where previous beliefs have been shattered by the recent financial and economic crises. Since 2008, economic policymakers and researchers have occupied a brave new economic world. Previous consensuses have been upended, former assumptions have been cast into doubt, and new approaches have yet to stand the test of time. Policymakers have been forced to improvise and researchers to rethink basic theory. George Akerlof, Nobel Laureate and one of this volume's editors, compares the crisis to a cat stuck in a tree, afraid to move. In April 2013, the International Monetary Fund brought together leading economists and economic policymakers to discuss the slowly emerging contours of the macroeconomic future. This book offers their combined insights. The editors and contributors—who include the Nobel Laureate and bestselling author Joseph Stiglitz, Federal Reserve Vice Chair Janet Yellen, and the former Governor of the Bank of Israel Stanley Fischer—consider the lessons learned from the crisis and its aftermath. They discuss, among other things, post-crisis questions about the traditional policy focus on inflation; macroprudential tools (which focus on the stability of the entire financial system rather than of individual firms) and their effectiveness; fiscal stimulus, public debt, and fiscal consolidation; and exchange rate arrangements.

Download or read book Macroprudential Policy written by International Monetary Fund and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2011-10-01 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper provides the most comprehensive empirical study of the effectiveness of macroprudential instruments to date. Using data from 49 countries, the paper evaluates the effectiveness of macroprudential instruments in reducing systemic risk over time and across institutions and markets. The analysis suggests that many of the most frequently used instruments are effective in reducing pro-cyclicality and the effectiveness is sensitive to the type of shock facing the financial sector. Based on these findings, the paper identifies conditions under which macroprudential policy is most likely to be effective, as well as conditions under which it may have little impact.
