Asymmetric Monetary Policy Rules for an Open Economy: Evidence from Canada and the UK
本文构建了一个分析框架,研究中央银行在非对称偏好下的开放经济货币政策规则,并使用加拿大和英国1983-2007年的季度数据进行了实证检验,发现两国央行存在非对称偏好。
We present an analytical framework to examine the open economy monetary policy rule of a central bank under asymmetric preferences. The resulting policy rule is then empirically examined using quarterly data with regard to Canada and the UK from 1983q1 to 2007q4. Our empirical investigation shows that the open economy policy rule receives support from the data and that the monetary policy makers in the UK and Canada have asymmetric preferences. Robustness checks based on model calibration provide support for the suggested policy rule. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
