【主题】 constrained discretion and central bank transparency(f. bianchi & l. melosi, frb of chicago working paper, 2016)
【摘要】we develop and estimate a general equilibrium model in which monetary policy can deviate from active inflation stabilization and agents face uncertainty about the nature of these deviations. when observing a deviation, agents conduct bayesian learning to infer its likely duration. under constrained discretion, only short deviations occur: agents are confident about a prompt return to the active regime, macroeconomic uncertainty is low, welfare is high. however, if a deviation persists, agents’ beliefs start drifting, uncertainty accelerates, and welfare declines. if the duration of the deviations is announced, uncertainty follows a reverse path. for the u.s. transparency lowers uncertainty and increases welfare.
