how policy choices affect learning of the true model of the economy when the policymaker’s model is mis-specified. We ask … the impact of exogenous shocks and of adopting an optimal monetary policy on the speed of learning. Slow learning can … neither real-time learning by the policymaker or the private sector, nor the adoption of an optimal policy, affect the speed …

We introduce learning in a Brock-Mirman environment and study the effect of risk generated by the planner's econometric … activity on optimal consumption and investment. Here, learning introduces two sources of risk about future payoffs: structural … uncertainty and uncertainty from the anticipation of learning. The latter renders control and learning nonseparable. We present …
