Author

Listed:
  • Shingo Umino

Abstract

This article presents reconsideration of whether the monetary policy in the late 1980s was delayed. No report in the literature describes studies evaluating past monetary policy using the model-consistent latent variable from Bayesian estimation. No delay of monetary policy can be found.
