11 Keep spreads down Credit easing Financial-stability policy 11 Lars E.O. Svensson Monetary policy at ZLB
12 Keep up inflation expectations Promise high inflation in the future (low policy rate in the future) Credible? (Krugman 98) Credible positive inflation target good But what if we need inflation above target? Price-level target (average-inflation target) Quantitative easing, expand monetary base/money supply (works only if believed to be permanent, otherwise probably useless) 12 Lars E.O. Svensson Monetary policy at ZLB
13 Small open economy: The exchange rate Easy monetary policy is a package: Lower policy rate, higher inflation, higher inflation expectations, lower real rate, higher output gap, weaker currency Announce zero policy rate for longer Induce lower policy-rate expectations by lending longer at policy rate Support easy monetary policy with (threat of) FX intervention to depreciate currency/avoid appreciation (Switzerland) Foolproof Way, Mark II 13 Lars E.O. Svensson Monetary policy at ZLB
14 Small open economy: The exchange rate Foolproof Way, Mark I (Svensson 2000): 1 Price-level target (path) (above current price level) 2 Currency depreciation and peg 3 When price-level target achieved, return to floating exchange rate and price-level/inflation target 14 Lars E.O. Svensson Monetary policy at ZLB
15 Small open economy: The exchange rate Weak currency, not competitive devaluation, not beggar-thy-neighbor Just integrated part of normal easy monetary policy through unconventional means Maintain activity, maintain import Currency depreciation is terms-of-trade improvement for trading partners Easy monetary policy in all countries good Maintain activity, import, world trade Small open economy: Exchange rate important for own economy, little or no effect on rest of world Large economy: Exchange rate less important for own economy, large effect on rest of world 15 Lars E.O.
