This paper investigates the identification, the determinacy and the stability of ad hoc, "quasi-optimal" and optimal policy rules augmented with financial stability indicators (such as asset prices deviations from their fundamental values) and minimizing the volatility of the policy interest...

In der einfachen finanzmathematischen Welt herrscht ein konstanter Zinssatz. Wird die Modellwelt hinsichtlich einer nicht flachen Zinsstruktur abgeändert, so sollten die Barwertfaktoren um zwischenzeitliche Zinszahlungen (Zinseszinsen) neutralisiert werden. Die Berechnung der Barwertfaktoren...

This paper shows that a shift from Ramsey optimal policy under short term commitment (based on a negative-feedback mechanism) to a Taylor rule (based on positive-feedback mechanism) in the new-Keynesian model is in fact a Hopf bifurcation, with opposite policy advice. The number of stable...

This paper examines the macroprudential roles of bank capital regulation and monetary policy in a Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium model with endogenous financial frictions and a borrowing cost channel. We identify various transmission channels through which credit risk, commercial bank...

The study examines the influence of a selective set of macroeconomic forces on stock market prices in Bangladesh. The Dhaka Stock Exchange All-Share Price Index (DSI) is used to represent the prices in the stock market while deposit interest rates, exchange rates, consumer price index (CPI),...

Dieser Beitrag untersucht ökonomische Wachstumsnotwendigkeiten anhand der Funktionsweise der gegenwärtigen Geldwirtschaft im zweistufigen Bankensystem sowie anhand eines bestands- und flussgrößenkonsistenten Modells. Ergebnis des Modells ist, dass die Funktionsweise der Geldwirtschaft...

This paper identifies a precautionary banking liquidity shock via a set of sign, zero and forecast variance restrictions imposed. The shock proxies the banking sector's reluctance to lend to the real economy induced by an exogenous preference change for liquid assets. Through the lens of a DSGE...

This paper investigates the relevance of the No-Ponzi game condition for public debt (i.e. the public debt growth rate has to be lower than the real interest rate, a necessary assumption for Ricardian equivalence) and of the transversality condition for the GDP growth rate (i.e. the GDP growth...

Dieser Beitrag untersucht den Zusammenhang zwischen Investitionswachstum, Zinsen und Erwartungen für Österreich. Basierend auf einem Panel von 73 Wirtschaftssektoren zeigt sich, dass Zinsänderungen nur dann einen positiven Einfluss auf Investitionswachstum haben, wenn die Erwartungen stark...

We present a two-country model with an enhanced banking sector featuring risky lending and cross-border interbank market frictions. We find that (i) the strength of the financial accelerator, when applied to banks operating under uncertainty in an interbank market, will critically depend on the...
