Monetary policy tradeoffs between financial stability and price stability

Abstract

We analyze the impact of interest rate policy on financial stability in an environment where banks can experience runs on their short-term liabilities forcing them to sell assets at fire-sale prices. Price adjustment frictions and a state-dependent risk of financial crisis create the possibility of a policy tradeoff between price stability and financial stability. Focusing on Taylor rules with monetary policy possibly reacting to banks short-term liabilities, we find that the optimized policy uses the extra tool to support investment at the expense of higher inflation and output volatility.
