Monetary Policy Cooperation May Not Be Counterproductive

Author

  • Henrik Jensen

Abstract

This paper qualifies Rogoff's famous (1985) result that international monetary policy cooperation is counterproductive. In a model similar to his, it is shown that if wage‐setters are non‐atomistic and inflation averse — as policymakers are — cooperation leads to higher employment and possibly lower inflation.
