Tiivistelmä: | This paper is a statistical analysis of the manner in which the Federal Reserve determines the level of the federal funds rate target. The paper introduces new statistical tools for forecasting a discrete-valued time series such as the target and suggests that these methods, in conjunction with a focus on the institutional details of hoe the target is determined, can significantly improve on standard vector autoregression forecasts of the effective federal funds rate. |
