This paper reviews alternative options for monetary policy when the short-term interest rate is at the zero lower bound and develops new empirical estimates of the effects of the maturity structure of publicly held debt on the term structure of interest rates. We use a model of risk-averse...

We develop a structural DSGE model to systematically study the principal tools of unconventional monetary policy -- quantitative easing (QE), forward guidance, and negative interest rate policy (NIRP) -- as well as the interactions between them. To generate the same output response, the...

Yes! We study the substitutability between conventional monetary policy based on the adjustment of a short term policy interest rate with quantitative easing (QE). We do so in a four equation New Keynesian model featuring financial frictions that allows QE to be economically relevant. We...
