The general equilibrium model with incomplete financial markets (GEI) is extended by adding fiat money, fiscal and … monetary policy and a cash-in-advance constraint. The central bank either pegs the interest rate or money supply while the …

We derive necessary and suffcient conditions for simple monetary policy rules that guarantee equilibrium determinacy in the New Keynesian monetary model. Our modeling framework is derived from a fully specified optimization model that is still amenable to analytical characterisation. The...

Portfolio policy sets the portfolio of assets … remains indeterminacy indexed by an arbitrary probability measure over the set of states of the world. With an interest rate … policy, and only if the asset market is complete, indeterminacy is nominal: it affects prices, but not the allocation of …

In response to the financial crisis of 2007/08, all major central banks decreased interest rates to historically low levels and created large excess reserves. Central bankers and academics currently discuss how to implement monetary policy, going forward. We find that paying interest on reserves...

This paper develops a theory of endogenously (non-)Ricardian beliefs. That is, whether Ricardian Equivalence holds in an equilibrium depends on endogenous private sector beliefs. The novelty here is a restricted perceptions viewpoint: in complex forecasting environments, agents forecast...

We investigate competition between two intrinsically worthless currencies as a result of decentralized interactions between human subjects. We design a laboratory experiment based on a simple two-country, two-currency search model to study factors that affect circulation patterns and equilibrium...

Channel systems for conducting monetary policy are becoming increasingly popular. Despite their popularity, the consequences of implementing policy with a channel system are not well understood. We develop a general equilibrium framework of a channel system and investigate the optimal policy. A...

We develop an experimental framework to investigate the quantity theory of money and the real effects of inflation in … an economy where money serves as a medium of exchange. We test the classical view that inflation reduces output and … welfare by taxing monetary exchange. Inflation is engineered by constant money growth. We conduct three treatments, where the …
