We evaluate the dynamics of a small and open economy under alternative simple rules for different monetary-policy instruments, in a model with imperfectly anchored expectations. The inflation-targeting consensus is that interest-rate rules are preferred, instead of using either a monetary...

This paper presents a small open economy model to analyze the role of central bank liquidity management in implementing 'unconventional' monetary policies within an inflation targeting framework. In particular, the paper explicitly models the facilities that the central bank uses to manage...

This paper evaluates from a welfare perspective three policy alternatives for dealing with Dutch disease problems originating from cyclical movements in commodity prices: fiscal rules for government expenditures, capital controls, and taxes on domestic lending. A DSGE model of a small open...
