Monetary policy refers to actions taken by central banks to affect monetary conditions and financial variables to promote economic goals. It uses tools like open market operations, reserve requirements, and interest rates to influence the money supply and cost of credit. During recessions, monetary policy aims to stimulate demand by increasing money supply and lowering rates. During inflation, it aims to reduce spending by tightening money supply or raising rates. The objectives are economic stability, price stability, and growth.

The European Unemployment Puzzle: implications from population agingGRAPE
We study the link between the evolving age structure of the working population and unemployment. We build a large new Keynesian OLG model with a realistic age structure, labor market frictions, sticky prices, and aggregate shocks. Once calibrated to the European economy, we quantify the extent to which demographic changes over the last three decades have contributed to the decline of the unemployment rate. Our findings yield important implications for the future evolution of unemployment given the anticipated further aging of the working population in Europe. We also quantify the implications for optimal monetary policy: lowering inflation volatility becomes less costly in terms of GDP and unemployment volatility, which hints that optimal monetary policy may be more hawkish in an aging society. Finally, our results also propose a partial reversal of the European-US unemployment puzzle due to the fact that the share of young workers is expected to remain robust in the US.

US Economic Outlook - Being Decided - M Capital Group August 2021.pdfpchutichetpong
The U.S. economy is continuing its impressive recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and not slowing down despite re-occurring bumps. The U.S. savings rate reached its highest ever recorded level at 34% in April 2020 and Americans seem ready to spend. The sectors that had been hurt the most by the pandemic specifically reduced consumer spending, like retail, leisure, hospitality, and travel, are now experiencing massive growth in revenue and job openings.
Could this growth lead to a “Roaring Twenties”? As quickly as the U.S. economy contracted, experiencing a 9.1% drop in economic output relative to the business cycle in Q2 2020, the largest in recorded history, it has rebounded beyond expectations. This surprising growth seems to be fueled by the U.S. government’s aggressive fiscal and monetary policies, and an increase in consumer spending as mobility restrictions are lifted. Unemployment rates between June 2020 and June 2021 decreased by 5.2%, while the demand for labor is increasing, coupled with increasing wages to incentivize Americans to rejoin the labor force. Schools and businesses are expected to fully reopen soon. In parallel, vaccination rates across the country and the world continue to rise, with full vaccination rates of 50% and 14.8% respectively.
However, it is not completely smooth sailing from here. According to M Capital Group, the main risks that threaten the continued growth of the U.S. economy are inflation, unsettled trade relations, and another wave of Covid-19 mutations that could shut down the world again. Have we learned from the past year of COVID-19 and adapted our economy accordingly?
“In order for the U.S. economy to continue growing, whether there is another wave or not, the U.S. needs to focus on diversifying supply chains, supporting business investment, and maintaining consumer spending,” says Grace Feeley, a research analyst at M Capital Group.
While the economic indicators are positive, the risks are coming closer to manifesting and threatening such growth. The new variants spreading throughout the world, Delta, Lambda, and Gamma, are vaccine-resistant and muddy the predictions made about the economy and health of the country. These variants bring back the feeling of uncertainty that has wreaked havoc not only on the stock market but the mindset of people around the world. MCG provides unique insight on how to mitigate these risks to possibly ensure a bright economic future.
2. What is Monetary Policy?
The term monetary policy refers to actions taken by
central banks to affect monetary magnitudes or other
financial conditions.
It is concerned with the changing the supply of
money stock and rate of interest for the purpose of
stabilizing the economy at full employment or
potential output level by influencing the level of
aggregate demand.
03/20/12 ICSA 2012 GS Indian Economics/Prof. S.Maitra 2
3. Monetary Policy during recession
At times of recession monetary
policy involves the adoption of
some monetary tools which tends
to increase the money supply and
lower interest rate so as to
stimulate aggregate demand in
the economy.
03/20/12 ICSA 2012 GS Indian Economics/Prof. S.Maitra 3
4. Monetary Policy during inflation
At the time of inflation
monetary policy seeks to
contract aggregate spending
by tightening the money
supply or raising the rate of
return.
03/20/12 ICSA 2012 GS Indian Economics/Prof. S.Maitra 4
5. Three objectives
To ensure the economic stability at full
employment or potential level of
output.
To achieve price stability by controlling
inflation and deflation.
To promote and encourage economic
growth in the economy.
03/20/12 ICSA 2012 GS Indian Economics/Prof. S.Maitra 5
6. Tools of Monetary Policy
Bank rate policy
Open market operations
Changing cash reserve ratio
Undertaking selective credit
controls.
03/20/12 ICSA 2012 GS Indian Economics/Prof. S.Maitra 6
7. Bank Rate Policy
Bank rate is the minimum rate at which the central
bank of a country provides loan to the commercial
bank of the country.
Bank rate is also called discount rate because bank
provide finance to the commercial bank by
rediscounting the bills of exchange.
When general bank raises the bank rate, the
commercial bank raises their lending rates, it results
in less borrowings and reduces money supply in the
economy.
03/20/12 ICSA 2012 GS Indian Economics/Prof. S.Maitra 7
8. Limitations
Well organized money market
should exist in the economy. It
is not present in India
It is useful during the times of
inflation but it does not fullfil its
purpose during the time of
recession or depression.
03/20/12 ICSA 2012 GS Indian Economics/Prof. S.Maitra 8
9. Open Market Operations
It means the purchase and sale of
securities by central bank of the
country.
It is useful for the developed
countries.
The sale of security by the central
bank leads to contraction of credit and
purchase there of to credit expansion.
03/20/12 ICSA 2012 GS Indian Economics/Prof. S.Maitra 9
10. Limitations
When the central bank purchases the securities the cash
reserve of member bank will be increased and vice
versa.
The bank will expand and contract credit according to
prevailing economic and political circumstances and not
merely with reference to their cash reserves.
When the commercial bank cash balance increase the
demand for loan and advance should increase. This may
not happen due to economic and political uncertainty.
The circulation of bank credit should have a constant
velocity.
03/20/12 ICSA 2012 GS Indian Economics/Prof. S.Maitra 10
11. What is CRR?
CRR means Cash Reserve Ratio.
Banks in India are required to hold a certain proportion of their
deposits in the form of cash. However, actually Banks don’t hold
these as cash with themselves, but deposit such cash with Reserve
Bank of India (RBI). This minimum ratio (that is the part of the total
deposits to be held as cash) is stipulated by the RBI and is known as
the CRR or Cash Reserve Ratio.
Thus, When a bank’s deposits increase by Rs100, and if the cash
reserve ratio is 6%, the banks will have to hold additional Rs 6 with
RBI and Bank will be able to use only Rs 94 for investments and
lending / credit purpose. Therefore, higher the ratio (i.e. CRR), the
lower is the amount that banks will be able to use for lending and
investment.
This power of RBI to reduce the lendable amount by increasing the
CRR, makes it an instrument in the hands of a central bank through
which it can control the amount that banks lend. Thus, it is a tool used
by RBI to control liquidity in the banking system.
03/20/12 ICSA 2012 GS Indian Economics/Prof. S.Maitra 11
12. What is CRR?
Consequent upon amendment to RBI act in 2006, RBI can
prescribe Cash Reserve Ratio (CRR) for scheduled banks
without any floor rate or ceiling rate ( Before this enactment, the
Reserve Bank could prescribe CRR for scheduled banks between 3
per cent and 20 per cent of total of their demand and time liabilities).
RBI uses CRR either to drain excess liquidity or to release funds
needed for the growth of the economy from time to time. Increase in
CRR means that banks have less funds available and money is
sucked out of circulation. Thus we can say that this serves duel
purposes i.e.(a) ensures that a portion of bank deposits is kept with
RBI and is totally risk-free, (b) enables RBI to control liquidity in the
system, and thereby, inflation by tying the hands of the banks in
lending money
03/20/12 ICSA 2012 GS Indian Economics/Prof. S.Maitra 12
13. What is SLR?
Every bank is required to maintain at the close of
business every day, a minimum proportion of their
Net Demand and Time Liabilities as liquid assets in
the form of cash, gold and un-encumbered approved
securities. The ratio of liquid assets to demand and
time liabilities is known as Statutory Liquidity Ratio
(SLR). RBI is empowered to increase this ratio up to
40%. An increase in SLR also restrict the bank’s
leverage position to pump more money into the
economy.
03/20/12 ICSA 2012 GS Indian Economics/Prof. S.Maitra 13
14. Repo Rate
Repo (Repurchase) rate is the rate at
which the RBI lends shot-term money to
the banks against securities. When the
repo rate increases borrowing from RBI
becomes more expensive. Therefore, we
can say that in case, RBI wants to make it
more expensive for the banks to borrow
money, it increases the repo rate; similarly,
if it wants to make it cheaper for banks to
borrow money, it reduces the repo rate
03/20/12 ICSA 2012 GS Indian Economics/Prof. S.Maitra 14
15. Reverse Repo Rate
Reverse Repo rate is the rate at which banks park
their short-term excess liquidity with the RBI. The
banks use this tool when they feel that they are stuck
with excess funds and are not able to invest
anywhere for reasonable returns. An increase in
the reverse repo rate means that the RBI is ready to
borrow money from the banks at a higher rate of
interest. As a result, banks would prefer to keep
more and more surplus funds with RBI.
03/20/12 ICSA 2012 GS Indian Economics/Prof. S.Maitra 15
16. Repo Rate signifies the rate at
which liquidity is injected in the
banking system by RBI, whereas
Reverse repo rate signifies the
rate at which the central bank
absorbs liquidity from the banks
03/20/12 ICSA 2012 GS Indian Economics/Prof. S.Maitra 16
17. The policy announcements on 03/05/2011,
indicates that now repo rate has become the only
independent variable policy rate, marking a shift
from earlier method of calibrating various policy
rates separately. The reverse repo rate -- the rate
at which RBI borrows – will be kept 100 basis
points lower than the repo rate. On the other
hand Marginal Standing Facility (MSF) rate will
be kept 100 basis points higher than the repo
rate.
03/20/12 ICSA 2012 GS Indian Economics/Prof. S.Maitra 17
18. Marginal Standing Facility
Under this scheme, Banks will be able
to borrow upto 1% of their respective
Net Demand and Time Liabilities". The
rate of interest on the amount accessed
from this facility will be 100 basis
points (i.e. 1%) above the repo rate.
This scheme is likely to reduce volatility
in the overnight rates and improve
monetary transmission. This facility has
become effective from May 9, 2011
03/20/12 ICSA 2012 GS Indian Economics/Prof. S.Maitra 18
19. Expansionary Monetary Policy
Problem: Recession and unemployment
Measures:
(1) Central bank buys securities through open market
operation
(2) It reduces cash reserves ratio
(3) It lowers the bank rate
Money supply increases Investment
increasesAggregate demand increases Aggregate
output increases by a multiple of the increase in
investment
03/20/12 ICSA 2012 GS Indian Economics/Prof. S.Maitra 19
20. Tight Monetary Policy
Problem: Inflation
Measures: (1) Central bank sells securities through open
market operation
(2) It raises cash reserve ratio and statutory liquidity
(3) It raises bank rate
(4) It raises maximum margin against holding of stocks of
goods
Money supply decreases Interest rate raises
Investment expenditure declines
Aggregate demand declines Price level falls
03/20/12 ICSA 2012 GS Indian Economics/Prof. S.Maitra 20
21. Sources of Monetary Mismanagement
Variable time lags concerning the
effect of money supply on the
national income.
Treating Interest rate as the target
of monetary policy for influencing
investment demand for stabilizing
the economy.
03/20/12 ICSA 2012 GS Indian Economics/Prof. S.Maitra 21
22. Role of Monetary Policy in
Economic Growth
Monetary policy and savings.
Monetary policy and investment.
Cost of credit..
i) Monetary policy and public
investment.
ii) Monetary policy and private
investment.
iii)Allocation of investment funds.
03/20/12 ICSA 2012 GS Indian Economics/Prof. S.Maitra 22
23. Monetary Policy of RBI
In recent years starting from the mid-nineties
promoting economic growth is being given greater
emphasis in monetary policy of RBI.
Three sub-periods:
Monetary policy of controlled expansion(1951-1972).
Monetary policy in the pre-reforms
period(1972-1991) .
Monetary policy in the post-reforms
period(1991-2011).
03/20/12 ICSA 2012 GS Indian Economics/Prof. S.Maitra 23
24. Monetary Policy of Controlled
Expansion
Reserve bank’s responsibility in the circumstances is
mainly to moderate the expansion of credit and
money supply in such a way as to ensure the
legitimate requirements of industry and trade and
curb the use of credit for unproductive and
speculative purposes.
To ensure controlled expansion, RBI used the
instruments:
Changes in bank rate
Changes in cash reserve ratio
Selective credit control
03/20/12 ICSA 2012 GS Indian Economics/Prof. S.Maitra 24
25. Monetary Policy in the pre
Reform Period (1972—1991)
Price situation worsened during
the years of 1972- 1974. to
contain inflationary pressures RBI
further tightened its monetary
policy.
It is similar to tight monetary policy
03/20/12 ICSA 2012 GS Indian Economics/Prof. S.Maitra 25
26. Easy and Liberal Monetary
Policy
Liberal monetary policy adopted for
encouraging private sector since
1996.
Two instrument for monetary
management BY RBI since 1996:
Reactivation of bank rate.
Repo rate system .
03/20/12 ICSA 2012 GS Indian Economics/Prof. S.Maitra 26
27. Repo Rate System
It is introduced through which RBI can add to
liquidity in the banking system. Through repo
system RBI buys securities from the bank and
there by provide funds to them.
Repo refers to agreement for a transaction
between RBI and banks through which RBI
supplies funds immediately against government
securities and simultaneously agree to
repurchase the same or similar securities after a
specified time which may be one day to 14 days.
03/20/12 ICSA 2012 GS Indian Economics/Prof. S.Maitra 27
28. Liquidity Adjustment
Facility(LAF)
It is the another instrument of monetary
policy from June 2000 to adjust on a daily
basis liquidity in the banking system.
Through LAF, RBI regulates short-term
interest rates while its bank rate policy
serves as a signaling device for its
interest rate policy in the intermediate
period.

32. Neutral interest rate
“Neutral interest rate”, as a concept, generally
refers to the level of interest rate at which
monetary policy stance is neither expansionary
nor contractionary. Policy stance can be deemed
“neutral” when the real interest rate reaches a
level that is consistent with full employment of
resources over the medium-term, and hence full
capacity output and price stability.
03/20/12 ICSA 2012 GS Indian Economics/Prof. S.Maitra 32
33. Neutral interest rate
The concept of natural rate of interest was first
introduced into economics by the Swedish
economist Knut Wicksell in 1898. This rate,
theoretically, essentially relates to:
(i) the rate of interest that equates saving with
investment;
(ii) the marginal productivity of capital, and
(iii) the rate of interest that is consistent with
aggregate price stability.
03/20/12 ICSA 2012 GS Indian Economics/Prof. S.Maitra 33
34. Neutral interest rate
Although natural and neutral rates of interest are
used interchangeably, there are major conceptual
differences between the two. Moreover, while the
former emerges in the market and is not directly
observable, the latter essentially is an empirical
approximation used in practice for conduct of
monetary policy. Thus, the neutral rate of interest is
useful as an important benchmark for the actual
conduct of monetary policy and also market analysis
of monetary policy stance.
