This paper provides a piece of results regarding asymmetric forecasting and commitment monetary policy with a robust control algorithm. Previous studies provide no clarification of the connection between asymmetric preference and robust commitment policy. Three results emerge from general...

This paper introduces asymmetric central bank forecasting into the standard New Keynesian model within the context of robust control theory. Asymmetric forecasting expresses policymakersf reservations about economic forecasts, and the degree of their reservations is reflected as an asymmetric...

This study reconsiders the interest rate rule for the Russian monetary policy, of which no evidence was found in earlier studies. This study successfully estimates an interest rate rule. In order to obtain this result, we follow Surico (2007).s nonlinear approach. The main contributions of this...

This paper analyses asymmetric preferences for the monetary policies of the Visegrad Four (the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia). We extend Surico's (2007) asymmetric preference model to a small open economy in order to consider the exchange rate for a monetary policy framework as...

We estimate determinants of dynamic correlations of output comovement of OECD countries between 1990 and 2008. We show that trade intensity, degree of financial integration and specialization pattern have significantly different effects on comovements at different frequencies. This can bias the...

Branch (2014) shows that the asymmetric preference of professional forecasters enhances the fit of the original Taylor rule with respect to recent US monetary policy. This paper investigates the stability of the Taylor rule with asymmetric preference under adaptive learning. We find that when...

We exploit dynamic correlations to estimate determinants of output comovement between OECD countries. Trade intensity, financial integration, and specialization patterns have significantly different effects on comovements at different frequencies. This sheds more light on previous results based...
