This paper shows that asset (share price) inflation mostly responds to changes in monetary policy in the same direction as goods inflation. However, in certain important episodes, asset inflation booms while monetary policy is well controlled and goods inflation is low.

This survey is motivated by the major changes that have been occurring both within the financial sector and in the relationships between financial and other markets. These changes have complicated both monetary analysis and the practice of monetary policy. Monetary models based on simple aggregative relationships are not well equipped to analyse issues of structural change. Monetary policy has been forced to rely more on “judgement” and less on the application of these models and their suggested policy rules. One obvious example of this is the demise, or at least downgrading, of monetary targets in major western economies. This survey examines some of the main strands in the development of monetary economics in the past two decades. It argues that much of the policy prescription of monetary economics – especially reliance on monetary targeting – depends on simple “stylised facts” about the behaviour of regulated economies. These prescriptions cannot therefore be applied directly to economies where the regulatory structure is changing. Policy approaches such as Australia’s current use of a “check list” of indicators are discretionary to the extent that they involve judgements about the relative importance of different indicators. But it is argued that this discretionary approach develops, rather than overthrows, the previous approach.

This paper discusses the effects of different exchange rate regimes with different assumptions about the speed of adjustment of capital flows and expectations about changes in the exchange rate. It does this using simulation and eigenvalue analysis of a structural model of a small open economy. Responses of key macro-economic variables are examined under a range of domestic and external shocks. It is found that in the model used a flexible exchange rate produces instability if capital flows adjust sluggishly to changes in income, interest rates, and expectations about the exchange rate. For this reason a managed float may be desirable if capital flows are slow to adjust. If capital flows adjust rapidly, however, a much more flexible exchange rate is possible and contributes to the control of money and inflation in the model without additional detrimental effects on unemployment or output. Taux de change etflux de capitaux: une analyse post-optimale. Ce memoire examine les effets de divers regimes de taux de change sur certaines variables macro-economiques quand on part de certains postulats quant a la vitesse d'ajustement des flux de capitaux et des anticipations des changements dans le taux de change. On utilise des analyses de simulation et de vecteurs propres d'un modele structurel d'une petite economie ouverte. L'effet d'impact sur certaines variables macro-economiques est calibre pour tout un eventail de chocs domestiques et extemes. II appert a partir du modele utilise qu'un rEgime de taux de change flexible engendre l'instabilit6 si les flux de capitaux s'ajustent lentement aux changements dans le niveau du revenu, des taux d'int6ret et dans les anticipations quant au niveau du taux de change. Pour cette raison, un taux de change gere peut s'averer desirable si les flux de capitaux sont lents a s'ajuster. Si les flux de capitaux s'ajustent rapidement, cependant, un taux de change plus flexible est possible et contribue a un meilleur controle de la monnaie et de l'inflation dans le modele sans pour autant donner lieu a des effets indesirables sur le niveau du chomage ou du produit national.
This paper examines the effects of three simple rules for monetary policy in an econometric model of the Australian economy. Its main contribution is to examine such rules under a range of exogenous shocks to the economy. rather than over a particular historical episode. A second contribution is to show that, in the model used, the money supply may be controlled by variations in interest rates under official control. However. lags of two to four quarters are involved for the shocks considered in the paper.The results are consistent, in the short run, with those obtained by Poole—that is, it is sensible to fix the money supply when the shocks are ‘real’ and to fix the interest rate when the shocks are ‘financial’. In the medium to long run. however, it is shown that the variability of inflation and unemployment may be less when money is controlled even for a financial shock. These conclusions are strengthened if allowance is made for the ‘underwriting’ problem.

This paper provides a synthesis of two recent approaches to macroeconomics, rational expectations and disequilibrium macromodelling. The unifying theme of the two approaches is the emphasis on the effects of the difference between actual and anticipated (or equilibrium) values of important variables such as the money supply.
