Abstract: | To explore the welfare effects of optimal monetary policy (hereafter as: mon-pol.) and the potential benefits of policy coordination, a stochastic general-equilibrium model is used. Dealt with are cross-country perfectly symmetric shocks in the traded goods sectors and imperfectly correlated shocks in the non-traded goods sectors. In this context, mon-pol. does possibly not achieve efficient sectoral resource allocations within countries, avoiding inefficient relative price changes across countries etc. |
