Monetary policy and real economic growth

Author

Abstract

An examination of the connections between monetary policy changes, shifts in aggregate spending, and adjustments to production, showing that although a central bank may periodically exploit the connection between short-term monetary expansions and real economic growth, frequent attempts may ultimately distort the allocation of resources from productive uses to protective enterprises and result in proportionally higher inflation.
