Book Banks in The Global Integrated Monetary and Fiscal Mode

Download or read book Banks in The Global Integrated Monetary and Fiscal Mode written by and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Global Integrated Monetary and Fiscal model (GIMF) is a multi-region DSGE model developed by the Economic Modeling Division of the IMF for policy and scenario analysis. This paper compares two versions of GIMF, GIMF with a conventional financial accelerator, where bank balance sheets do not play a prominent role, and GIMF with both a financial accelerator and a fully specified banking sector that can make lending losses, and that is regulated according to Basel-III. The authors illustrate the comparative macroeconomic properties of both models by presenting their responses to a wide range of fiscal, demand, supply and financial shocks."--Abstract.

Book Monetary and Fiscal Policy Options for Dealing with External Shocks  Insights from the GIMF for Colombia

Download or read book Monetary and Fiscal Policy Options for Dealing with External Shocks Insights from the GIMF for Colombia written by Daniel Leigh and published by INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND. This book was released on 2009-03-01 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper utilizes an open-economy New Keynesian overlapping generations model, the Global Integrated Monetary and Fiscal Model (GIMF), to assess the macroeconomic effects of external shocks and the impact of various monetary and fiscal policy responses. The simulations assess the effect of shocks to trade, world income, and risk premia for public debt. The results suggest that under Colombia’s inflation targeting regime, which incorporates exchange rate flexibility and a highly responsive monetary policy, the economy is well poised to adjust to different external shocks. They also suggest that the potential role of fiscal policy in responding to shocks depends critically on financing conditions.

This book was released on 2008-04-18 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper provides three policy lessons to take full advantage of the opportunity afforded by EU funds. The main features of the global integrated monetary and fiscal (GIMF) model and how it was modified to account for income convergence are discussed. The impact of EU funds as exhibited in the model and highlights potential risks related to the authorities' policy choices, in particular in the fiscal area, are also discussed. The macroeconomic literature on the impact of EU funds can be divided into broad groups: model simulations and econometric studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Selected Issues paper on Australia highlights the IMF's new Global Integrated Monetary and Fiscal Model (GIMF), which is used to examine the macroeconomic implications of alternative fiscal responses to higher revenue. Lower labor and capital income taxes, along with higher public investment, will generate the largest economic gains in the long term. The model shows that saving a portion of the additional revenue in the short term can help alleviate demand pressures and increase overall domestic savings.

Download or read book Colombia Selected Issues written by International Monetary Fund and published by INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND. This book was released on 2008-01-28 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper quantifies the dynamic effects of fiscal policy using a structural model, the Global Integrated Monetary and Fiscal Model (GIMF). The analysis finds that success of fiscal policy in enhancing macroeconomic stability depends on the type of shock, the response of monetary policy, and the length of fiscal policy implementation lags. The paper also presents the basic structure of the Bayesian VAR describing its empirical implementation and the estimation results and results from the conditional forecasting exercise and remarks. It also assesses Colombia's experience with central bank foreign exchange intervention between 2004 and 2007.

Book Fiscal Consolidation in the Euro Area

Download or read book Fiscal Consolidation in the Euro Area written by Mr.Derek Anderson and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2013-10-16 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The IMF’s Global Integrated Monetary and Fiscal model (GIMF) is used to examine the scope for structural reforms in the euro area to offset the negative impact of fiscal consolidation required to put public debt back on a sustainable path. The results suggest that structural reforms in core countries could quite reasonably be expected to offset the near term negative impact on activity arising from the required fiscal consolidation that uses a plausible mix of instruments to achieve the permanent improvement in the deficit. However, for the periphery, where the required consolidation is roughly twice as large as that required in the core, the results suggest that it would take several years before structural reforms could return the level of output back to its pre-consolidation path.

Download or read book Identical Twins written by Benjamin Carton and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Global Integrated Monetary and Fiscal model (GIMF) is a multi-region, forward-looking,DSGE model developed by the Economic Modeling Division of the IMF for policy analysis and international economic research. This paper uses GIMF to illustrate when a destination-based cash-flow tax is equivalent to a combination of a consumption tax and a labor subsidy, as the latter combination have been advocated as proxies for the implementation of destination-based cash-flow taxes. The paper documents the conditions under which both types of taxes are identical and how the equivalence in terms of the real economy and tax revenue responses can be broken, namely after the introduction of finitely lived consumers that value government debt as net wealth (real economy) and the introduction of untaxed government expenditure (tax revenue).

Book Macroeconomic Responses to Terms of Trade Shocks  A Framework for Policy Analysis for the Argentine Economy

Download or read book Macroeconomic Responses to Terms of Trade Shocks A Framework for Policy Analysis for the Argentine Economy written by Pelin Berkmen and published by INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND. This book was released on 2009-05-01 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper presents a version of the global integrated monetary fiscal (GIMF) model adapted and calibrated to the Argentine economy. The model replicates the effect of the strong improvement in Argentina's terms of trade stemming from higher world commodity prices as well as other key economic trends in Argentina during the period 2003-2007. The model can be used to assess the potential impact of different combinations of monetary and fiscal policies on output, inflation, and the external trade.
