Standard NK models find optimal inflation well below 2%, small welfare losses from business cycles and monetary policy is neutral in the long run. In a new paper, @mirkoabbritti, @egostino and Weber show all three conclusions break with endogenous growth & DNWR. 1/5

Happy to share that "Unconventional policy and idiosyncratic risk" (with Marialaura Seccareccia), is out in the Journal of Monetary Economics. We know a fair amount about how idiosyncratic risk shapes interest-rate policy. Much less about what it does to balance-sheet policy. 🧵

Mio articolo sui delicati intrecci tra politica monetaria e fiscale.
Una stretta monetaria può riportare stabilmente l’inflazione all’obiettivo solo se il bilancio pubblico ne assorbe il costo. Altrimenti la disinflazione perde credibilità e i rendimenti a lungo termine segnalano rischi. Ne parla @LeonardoMelosi lavoce.info/archives/112278/…
