Book Synopsis Central Bank Financial Strength, Transparency, and Policy Credibility by : Peter Stella
Download or read book Central Bank Financial Strength, Transparency, and Policy Credibility written by Peter Stella and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A central bank is financially strong if it possesses resources sufficient to attain its fundamental policy objective(s). Once endowed with those resources, relations between government and central bank should be designed so that significant changes in central bank financial strength do not occur unless necessitated by changes in policy objectives. The level of strength required depends on the array of policy objectives (for example, the exchange rate regime) as well as the constraints and risks presented by the operational environment. Attaining credibility is facilitated if the public can easily determine the financial strength of the bank, yet for a variety of reasons this is often difficult. Transparency requires institutional arrangements that ensure the central bank generates profit in most states of the world, is subject to strict ex post independent audit, and transfers regularly all profits, after provisions, to the treasury.
Book Synopsis Central Bank Financial Strength, Policy Constraints and Inflation by : Peter Stella
Download or read book Central Bank Financial Strength, Policy Constraints and Inflation written by Peter Stella and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2008-02 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Central bank financial strength is positively associated with good policy performance. Financially weak central banks generate losses which undermine macroeconomic stability and call into question the credibility of their policies. In assessing central bank financial strength a careful examination of the policy regime and the volatility of the economic environment is necessary. Conventional measures of private enterprise financial strength- profitability and capital-can be very misleading when applied to central banks. The way in which a central bank balance sheet is strengthened matters. Providing the central bank with marketable government debt that can be used to develop a money market that in turn may become the locus of central bank monetary operations serves both to directly strengthen the institution and improve the quality of the environment in which it operates, thereby facilitating the attainment of its ultimate performance objectives.

Book Synopsis Transparency and Ambiguity in Central Bank Safety Net Operations by : Mr.Charles Enoch
Download or read book Transparency and Ambiguity in Central Bank Safety Net Operations written by Mr.Charles Enoch and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1997-10-01 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To mitigate the risks of contagion from problems arising in the banking sector, many countries operate some form of banking sector safety net. Such safety nets generally involve a judicious mixture of transparency and ambiguity. This ambiguity may be important to counter moral hazard effects but may lead to excessive forbearance in the face of banking problems. While the scope for ambiguity has been declining, some ambiguity in the handling of individual institutions remains. In any case, ex post transparency is essential for reviewing the propriety of any assistance and preserving the authorities’ future reputation and policy credibility.

Book Synopsis Issues in Central Bank Finance and Independence by : Åke Lönnberg
Download or read book Issues in Central Bank Finance and Independence written by Åke Lönnberg and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2008 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conventional economic policy models focus only on selected elements of the central bank balance sheet, in particular monetary liabilities and sometimes foreign reserves. The canonical model of an "independent" central bank assumes that it chooses money (or an interest rate), unconstrained by a need to generate seignorage for itself or government. While a long line of literature has emphasized the dangers of fiscal dominance influencing the conduct of monetary policy the idea that an independent central bank could be constrained in achieving its policy objectives by its own balance sheet situation is a relatively novel idea considered in this paper. If one accepts this potential constraint as a valid concern, the financial strength of the central bank as a stand alone entity becomes highly relevant for ascertaining monetary policy credibility. We consider several strands of evidence that clearly indicate fiscal backing for central banks cannot be assumed and hence financial independence is relevant to operational independence. First we examine 135 central bank laws to illustrate the variety of legal approaches adopted with respect to central bank financial independence. Second, we examine the same data set with regard to central bank recapitalization provisions to show that even in cases where the treasury is nominally responsible for maintaining the central bank financially strong, it may do so in purely a cosmetic fashion. Third, we show that, in actual practice, treasuries have frequently not provided central banks with genuine financial support on a timely basis leaving them excessively reliant on seignorage to finance their operations and/or forcing them to abandon policy objectives.

Book Synopsis Central Bank Financial Strength and Policy Performance: An Econometric Evaluation by : Ulrich H. Klueh
Download or read book Central Bank Financial Strength and Policy Performance: An Econometric Evaluation written by Ulrich H. Klueh and published by INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND. This book was released on 2008-07-01 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The financial health of central banks and its relation to policy outcomes has recently been recognized as an important policy issue. While case study evidence clearly indicates that weak central bank finances can hamper effective policy implementation, the question of whether central bank financial strength influences policy performance remains controversial. This is due, in part, to a lack of econometric evidence. The paper presents a first step toward filling this gap, by providing a quantitative evaluation of the relationship between measures of central bank financial strength and policy performance, in particular inflation. The paper's major finding is that there indeed is a negative relationship between central bank financial strength and inflation outcomes. This relationship appears to be robust to the choice of alternative country samples, control variables, estimation strategies, and conceptualizations of central bank financial strength.
Book Synopsis Transparency in Central Bank Operations in the Foreign Exchange Market by : Mr.Charles Enoch
Download or read book Transparency in Central Bank Operations in the Foreign Exchange Market written by Mr.Charles Enoch and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1998-03-01 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transparency in the economic sphere involves making public sector action visible and understandable to the private sector. Transparency in central bank operations can be seen a complement to the greater transparency being established in policy formulation. Among the most important areas in this regard and the central bank’s operations in the foreign exchange market. This paper looks at the respective roles of overt and covert foreign exchange market operations, and considers that each may be appropriate under particular conditions. Reconciling covert operations with transparency requires rules for full disclosure with as short a lag as possible.
Book Synopsis Credibility of Central Bank Independence Revisited by : Mr.Timo Valila
Download or read book Credibility of Central Bank Independence Revisited written by Mr.Timo Valila and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1999-01-01 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The specific role of central bank independence in determining the overall credibility of monetary policy is addressed in this paper. It is argued that the credibility of delegating monetary policy to an independent central bank is endogenous to the credibility of the inflation target because a “conservative” inflation target may not be compatible with the fiscal policy stance. Also, lack of transparency in designing the institutional set-up is shown to be welfare-reducing.

Book Synopsis Transparency and Credibility by : Jon Faust
Download or read book Transparency and Credibility written by Jon Faust and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We define and study transparency, credibility, and reputation in a model where the central bank's characteristics are unobservable to the private sector and are inferred from the policy outcome. A low-credibility bank optimally conducts a more inflationary policy than a high-credibility bank, in the sense that it induces higher inflation, but a less expansionary policy in the sense that it induces lower inflation and employment than expected. Increased transparency makes the bank's reputation and credibility more sensitive to its actions. This has a moderating influence on the bank's policy. Full transparency of the central bank's intentions is generally socially beneficial, but frequently not in the interest of the bank. Somewhat paradoxically, direct observability of idiosyncratic central bank goals removes the moderating incentive on the bank and leads to the worst equilibrium.

Book Synopsis Checks and Balances, Private Information, and the Credibility of Monetary Commitments by : Philip Keefer

This book was released on 2001 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In economically volatile conditions in which it is more difficult for the public to distinguish inflation deliberately generated by government from inflation created by unanticipated economic shocks, the anti-inflationary effect of central bank independence will be unchanged but the effectiveness of exchange rate pegs will be significantly improved. Keefer and Stasavage develop and test several new hypotheses about the anti-inflationary effect of central bank independence and exchange rate pegs in the context of different institutions and different degrees of citizen information about government policies.
