We extend in a minimal way the stylized model introduced in in "Tipping Points in Macroeconomic Agent Based Models" [JEDC 50, 29-61 (2015)], with the aim of investigating the role and efficacy of monetary policy of a `Central Bank' that sets the interest rate such as to steer the economy towards a prescribed inflation …

There is by now a large consensus in modern monetary policy. This consensus has been built upon a dynamic general equilibrium model of optimal monetary policy as developed by, e.g., Goodfriend and King (1997), Clarida et al. (1999), Svensson (1999) and Woodford (2003). In this paper we extend the standard optimal monet…

This paper presents empirical evidence using recently developed techniques in econophysics suggesting that the degree of long-range dependence in interest rates depends on the conduct of monetary policy. We study the term structure of interest rates for the US and find evidence that global Hurst exponents change dramat…

Emerging economies use countercyclical policies to manage crises and dominant currencies.

problem Managing economic crises and fluctuations in dominant currencies like USD and EUR.
method Theoretical analysis, case studies, econometric modeling.
result Emerging economies can stabilize growth with countercyclical monetary policies.

Venice used 'helicopter money' to subsidize during famine and plague, but it caused instability.

problem Subsidizing inhabitants during containment policies while preventing long-term debt increase.
method Net-worth helicopter money strategy, equivalent to monetary expansion generating losses to the issuer.
result The strategy caused much monetary instability and had to be quickly reversed.

The Lucas critique has exposed the problem of the trade-off between changes in monetary policy and structural breaks in economic time series. The search for and characterisation of such breaks has been a major econometric task ever since. We have developed an integral technique similar to CUSUM using an empirical model…
