description |
This paper offers a personal review of
the current state of knowledge on monetary policy. In a
nutshell, what Friedman knew-have survived, but that modern
monetary policy departs in some important ways from older
principles? The older wisdom that monetary policy determines
inflation in the long run but can have systematic shorter
run effects has survived a major challenge. Most of the new
ideas stem from the recognition of the crucial role of
expectations. In today's world, this observation lies
behind the spectacular trend toward ever greater central
bank transparency. Then it is more than likely that ideas
will change in the wake of the global financial crisis.
Early debates challenge the old wisdom that central banks
ought to be mainly concerned with price stability. In
particular, financial stability has always been part of a
central bank's mission, but it has occupied limited
space in theoretical and empirical studies. |
