Since Keynes no economist would deny that expectations under uncer- tain conditions matter for the conduct of monetary policy, but still opin- ions about their formation are diverse. We build a hybrid New Keynesian Framework to analyze the influence of model uncertainty on optimal in- terest...

In the aftermath of the global financial crisis, the state of macroeconomicmodeling and the use of macroeconomic models in policy analysis has come under heavy criticism. Macroeconomists in academia and policy institutions have been blamed for relying too much on a particular class of...

In this paper, I evaluate the performance deterioration that occurs when the central bank employs an optimal targeting rule that is based on incorrect parameter values. I focus on two parameters — the degree of inflation inertia and the degree of price stickiness. I explicitly account for the...
