This paper presents a simple repeated-game model of interaction between the government and the private sector where, at each repetition, the government first makes a non-binding announcement about its future actions. The private sector, unsure whether or not this announcement will be respected,...

This paper examines the welfare implications of managing asset-price with consumer-price inflation targeting by monetary authorities who have to learn the laws of motion for both inflation rates. Our results show that the Central Bank can reduce the volatility of consumption and asset price...

The literature on optimal monetary policy typically makes three major assumptions: 1) policymakers’ preferences are quadratic, 2) the economy is linear, and 3) stochastic shocks and policymakers’ prior beliefs about unobserved variables are normally distributed. This paper relaxes...
