How macroprudential regulation shape US monetary policy spillovers: a bayesian GVAR analysis

Ver documento

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:We build a 26 country Bayesian Global VAR model to estimate the global spillovers of US monetary policy. Two alternative identification schemes are used (Cholesky, sign restrictions) to identify this shock. We assess its impact on domestic credit, interest rates, exchange rates and GDP growth. Once the IRFs are estimated, we compare them to macroprudential regulations, to understand whether those are effective in spillover mitigation. We manage to reproduce the stylized facts in international macroeconomics: US monetary contractions lead to a global decrease in output and credit, and depreciate foreign currencies. On macroprudential policy, results are mixed, and we find isolating properties only on credit. The iMaPP seems to amplify output and interest rate spillovers, and its effect depends on the trade channel too. Acknowledgements
