摘要:
In this paper we show that if markets are incomplete and there are nominal assets, whose payoff is denominated in money, monetary policy will be in general non-neutral. The mechanism through which monetary policy operates is a change in the structure of the rates of return: by changing the level of money prices monetary policy affects the payoffs of nominal assets. This differs from previous arguments for non-neutrality. We also show that a consideration of this effect of monetary policy may allow us to claim the superiority, from a welfare point of view, of a random money growth rate over a deterministic one.
