Monetary-fiscal interactions and the euro area's malaise
研究发现，欧元区现行货币与财政政策组合会导致产出、通胀和债券违约溢价不确定，而改用不可违约的欧元债券则能在衰退期大幅提升产出并稳定通胀。
When monetary and fiscal policy are conducted as in the euro area, output, inflation, and government bond default premia are indeterminate according to a standard sticky-price general equilibrium model extended to include defaultable public debt. With sunspots, the model mimics the recent euro area data. We specify an alternative configuration of monetary and fiscal policy, with a non-defaultable eurobond. If this policy arrangement had been in place since the onset of the Great Recession, output could have been much higher than in the data with inflation in line with the ECB's objective.
