Abstract

In this article we construct a simple open-economy macro model to examine how capital flows, monetary policy and dividend policies of firms influence asset prices, economic activity and inflation. In this model, we consider a three-asset framework based on domestic money, domestic equity and foreign bonds under flexible exchange rate. The model is based on the assumptions of imperfect asset substitutability and absence of sterilization. The model also incorporates an aggregate supply function in the presence of wage indexation. The model can apply to a large class of emerging market economies which have embarked on a programme of liberalization of the financial sector in general and stock market in particular.
