Labour tax reforms, cross-country coordination and the monetary policy stance in the euro area : a structural model-based approach
Jacquinot, Pascal; Lozej, Matija; Pisani, Massimiliano - 2018
We evaluate the effects of permanently reducing labour tax rates in the euro area (EA) by simulating a large-scale open economy dynamic general equilibrium model. The model features the EA as a monetary union, split in two regions (Home and the rest of the EA - REA), the US, and the rest of the...

When does lumpy factor adjustment matter for aggregate dynamics?
Fahr, Stephan; Yao, Fang - 2009
We analyze the dynamic effects of lumpy factor adjustments at the firm level onto the aggregate economy. We find that distinguishing between capital and labour as lumpy factors within the production function result in very different dynamics for aggregate output, investment and labour in an...

Nominal and real wage rigidities : in theory and in Europe
Knell, Markus - 2010
In this paper I study the relation between real wage rigidity (RWR) and nominal price and wage rigidity. I show that in a standard DSGE model RWR is mainly affected by the interaction of the two nominal rigidities and not by other structural parameters. The degree of RWR is, however,...

Time variation in U.S. wage dynamics
Hofmann, Boris; Peersman, Gert; Straub, Roland - 2010
This paper explores time variation in the dynamic effects of technology shocks on U.S. output, prices, interest rates as well as real and nominal wages. The results indicate considerable time variation in U.S. wage dynamics that can be linked to the monetary policy regime. Before and after the...

A single monetary policy for heterogeneous labour markets : the case of the euro area
Gomes, Sandra; Jacquinot, Pascal; Lozej, Matija - 2023
Differences in labour market institutions and regulations between countries of the monetary union can cause divergent …-country heterogeneity in labour market institutions for the conduct of monetary policy in a monetary union. We compute responses to an … expansionary demand shock and to an inflationary supply shock under the Taylor rule, asymmetric unemployment targeting, and average …

Macroeconomic effects of tariffs shocks : the role of the effective lower bound and the labour market
Jacquinot, Pascal; Lozej, Matija; Pisani, Massimiliano - 2020
We simulate a version of the EAGLE, a New Keynesian multi-country model of the world economy, to assess the macroeconomic effects of US tariffs imposed on one country member of the euro area (EA), and the rest of the world (RW). The model is augmented with an endogenous effective lower bound...

What's up with the Phillips curve?
Del Negro, Marco; Lenza, Michele; Primiceri, Giorgio E.; … - 2020
The business cycle is alive and well, and real variables respond to it more or less as they always did. Witness the Great Recession. In ation, in contrast, has gone quiescent. This paper studies the sources of this disconnect using VARs and an estimated DSGE model. It finds that the disconnect...
