This paper studies the transmission channels of monetary and macroprudential policies in an open economy framework and evaluates the normative implications for international spillovers and global welfare. An analytical decomposition uncovers the prominent role of expenditure switching for...

We study the effects of the euro area monetary policy on the institutional sectors in Portugal during the period 2000:4 2015:4. Our results show that the single monetary policy affected some variables that are proxies for the funding of each institutional sector of the economy: general...

After the Fed adopted its unconventional monetary policy, countries with strong surpluses faced fewer challenges than did those with more open economies and strong financial linkages with developed economies. In the case of Saudi Arabia, fiscal policy remains dominant due to the structure of the...

The steady application of Quantitative Easing (QE) has been followed by big and non-monotonic effects on international asset prices and international capital flows. These are difficult to explain in conventional models, but arise naturally in a model with collateral. This paper develops a...

What are the long-run aggregate effects of monetary shocks displaying throughthe credit channel of monetary policy? We address this question by investigatingthe transmission mechanism and estimating the dynamic behaviour of variablesrelated to credit and innovation. Then, we develop a DSGE model...

In this paper we build an agent-based model based on a threefold financial accelerator: (i) leverage accelerator - negative shocks on firms' output make banks less willing to loan funds, and firms less willing to make investments, hence a credit reduction follows further reducing the output;...

The Global Financial Crisis has reopened discussions on the role of the monetary policy in preserving financial stability. Determining whether monetary policy affects financial variables domestically -- especially compared to the effects of macroprudential policies -- and across borders, is...

This work studies the interactions between income distribution and monetary and fiscal policies in terms of ensuing dynamics of macro variables (GDP growth, unemployment, etc.) on the grounds of an agent-based Keynesian model. The direct ancestor of this work is the "Keynes meeting Schumpeter"...
