The Limits of Counter-Cyclical Monetary Policy: An Analysis Based on Optimal Control Theory and Vector Autoregressions
Abstract
Optimal control theory can be combined with the probability structure of a vector autoregression to investigate the tradeoffs available to policymakers. Such an approach obtains results based on a minimal set of assumptions about the economy and the structure of policy actions. This paper takes this approach to analyze the potential effectiveness of countercyclical monetary policy.
