We propose a new interest rate rule that implements the optimal equilibrium and eliminates all indeterminacy in a canonical New Keynesian model in which the zero lower bound on nominal interest rates (ZLB) is binding. The rule commits to zero nominal interest rates for a length of time that...

I give necessary and sufficient conditions under which interest-rate feedback rules eliminate aggregate instability by inducing a globally unique optimal equilibrium in a canonical New Keynesian economy with a binding zero lower bound. I consider a central bank that initially keeps interest...

This paper examines the uniqueness and learnability of rational expectations equilibrium when the policy rate is occasionally pegged at the zero lower bound (ZLB). We consider a model that features recurring, transient ZLB regimes and compare various interest rate rules which respond to...

We evaluate and compare alternative monetary policy rules, namely average inflation targeting, price level targeting, and traditional inflation targeting rules, in a standard New Keynesian model that features recurring, transient zero lower bound regimes. We use determinacy and expectational...

In this article, we study the optimal simple monetary policy rules under the Zero Lower Bound using DSGE model. The model economy is open and highly dependent on the terms of trade. Economic dynamics is the result of a terms of trade shock and an external interest rate shock. Using the impulse...

The celebrated Taylor rule provides a simple formula that aims to capture how the central bank interest rate is adjusted as a linear function of inflation and output gap. However, the rule does not take explicitly into account the zero lower bound on the interest rate. Prior studies on interest...
