Das Gutachten untersucht, ob die IWF-Prognosen für den Zuwachs des Bruttoinlandsprodukts in der Welt und in der Gruppe der Entwicklungs- und Schwellenländer mithilfe von gängigen Frühindikatoren verbessert werden können. Dabei zeigt sich, dass die Prognosegüte der IWF-Prognosen mit...

Die weltweite Finanzkrise hat zu einem starken Einbruch der wirtschaftlichen Aktivität geführt. Davon waren in Deutschland vor allem der Export, aber auch die Unternehmensinvestitionen betroffen. Übertreibungen im Immobiliensektor oder eine übermäßige Verschuldung, die anderenorts eine...

We quantify the macroeconomic effects of interest rate forward guidance in an estimated medium-scale two-agent New Keynesian (TANK) model. In general, such models can dampen or amplify the power of forward guidance compared to a representative agent model. Our empirical estimates indicate a...

We revisit the reversal puzzle: A counterintuitive contraction of inflation in response to an interest rate peg. We show that it is intimately related to the degree of agents' anticipation. If agents perfectly anticipate the peg, reversals occur depending on the duration of the peg. If they do...

We study the impact of market incompleteness and bounded rationality on the effectiveness of make-up strategies. To do so, we simulate a heterogeneous-agent New Keynesian (HANK) model with reflective expectations and an occasionally-binding effective lower bound (ELB) on the policy rate. Our...

Heterogeneous-agent New Keynesian models with sticky nominal wages usually assume that wage-setting unions demand the same amount of hours from all households. As a result, unions do not take account of the fact that (i) households are heterogeneous in their willingness to work, and that (ii)...

This paper provides a comparison of monetary policy rules with make-up and/or asymmetric elements for a heterogeneous agent New Keynesian (HANK) model. The model features incomplete financial markets, nominal price and wage rigidities, rational expectations, an occasionally binding effective...

We compare the stabilisation properties of history-dependent and asymmetric interest rate rules, taking into account the constraint posed by the effective lower bound on nominal interest rates. Specifically, we use a medium-scale Two-Agent New Keynesian (TANK) model that was estimated on euro...
