We consider the properties of two monetary policy rules ("strict inflation targeting", "constant money growth rule") in … nominal terms. Under a constant money growth rule which allows for temporary deviations of inflation from target in response … contrast, a policy of strict inflation targeting implements the target inflation rate also outside the steady state and …

This paper develops a small New Keynesian model with capital accumulation and government debt dynamics. The paper discusses the design of simple monetary and fiscal policy rules consistent with determinate equilibrium dynamics in the absence of Ricardian equivalence. Under this assumption,...

We investigate the effect of fiscal institutions such as the strength of the finance minister in the budget process and deficits on interest spreads contained in bond yields of the countries now belonging to the Eurozone. Deficits significantly increase risk premia measured by relative swap...
