2 General Remarks The Fed is tasked with Conducting monetary policy subject to a dual mandate (price stability and maximum employment), unlike the ECB; Supervising and regulating banks to ensure the safety and soundness of the banking and financial system; Maintaining financial stability and containing systematic risk; Providing financial services and playing a major role in operating the U.S. s payment systems I will talk about the U.S. economic outlook and some longer term aspects of U.S. monetary policy (but not timing issues) I will also discuss the limits of monetary policy 2

16 Monetary Policy U.S. is closer to normalizing monetary policy: o The Committee judges that the case for an increase in the federal funds rate has strengthened but decided, for the time being, to wait for further evidence of continued progress towards its objectives FOMC Statement, 21 Sept 2016 o Near term risks to the economic outlook appear roughly balanced By contrast, the ECB is unlikely to reduce monetary accommodation any time soon The underlying problems of the EZ remain o It is not close to being an optimal currency union o There is no fiscal union, and adjustments costs are very unevenly distributed among member states o Supply side reforms have been slow 16
17 Longer Term Economic Issues in U.S. Lower output growth and productivity growth in the long term? o Lower growth rate lower r* (natural rate of interest) near zero lower bound (ZLB) more likely to be hit in a recession Combination of changing demographics, less capital deepening and lower total factor productivity etc. At micro level, lower TFP reflected in: o Widening gaps between most and least productive firms o Fewer start-ups and less reallocation of production among firms Aging demographics and the level of government debt Limited role for monetary policy (or short-term fiscal policy) in addressing these issues Some role for macro-prudential policies, but there are trade-offs Sensible supply sides policies needed (Congress not FOMC) 17

22 Suggested Policies to Promote Productivity Growth Bailey & Montalbano, Brookings, Sept 2016 Greater competition o Simplify regulation o Limit patents too little competition, too much rent seeking o Reduce licensing restrictions barrier to entry o More competition in health care Invest in worker skills Invest in infrastructure Tax reform Greater Federal support for R&D 22
23 U.S. Monetary Policy Many Open Issues Mechanics (and timing) of normalization o Very large balance sheet, the results of QE / LSAPs o At present, maturing Treasuries are rolled over and principal repayments on Agency debt and MBS are reinvested o Awash with reserves, so traditional tools for controlling short term rates supplemented o IOR (interest on reserves) and RRP (reverse repos) important Longer term issues include: o ZLB (near zero lower bound) and the size of the Fed s balance sheet o ZLB and inflation target why not 3% rather than 2%? o Should the range of QE / LSAP assets be extended beyond Treasuries and Agency debt & MBS? 23
