Since the work of Doepke and Schneider (2006a) and Meh and Terajima (2008), we know that inflation causes major redistribution of wealth – between households and the government, between nationals and foreigners, and between households within the same country.2008-09-12T12:16:07+00:00enAggregate and Welfare Effects of Redistribution of Wealth Under Inflation and Price-Level Targeting2008-09-12Economic modelsInflation and pricesInflation targetsInflation: costs and benefitsMonetary policy frameworkSectoral balance sheetWorking Paper 2008-31https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/wp08-31.pdfAggregate and Welfare Effects of Redistribution of Wealth Under Inflation and Price-Level TargetingCésaire MehJosé-Víctor Ríos-RullYaz TerajimaSeptember 2008DD3D31EE2E21E3E31E4E44E5E52E6E63The Welfare Implications of Fiscal Dominance

This paper studies the interdependence between fiscal and monetary policy in a DSGE model with sticky prices and non-zero trend inflation. We characterize the fiscal and monetary policies by a rule whereby a given fraction k of the government debt must be backed by the discounted value of current and future primary surpluses.2008-09-02T11:08:46+00:00enThe Welfare Implications of Fiscal Dominance2008-09-02Economic modelsFiscal policyInflation: costs and benefitsMonetary policy frameworkWorking Paper 2008-28 https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/wp08-28.pdfThe Welfare Implications of Fiscal DominanceCarlos De ResendeNooman RebeiSeptember 2008EE3E31E4E42E5E50E6E63Inflation, Nominal Portfolios, and Wealth Redistribution in Canada

There is currently a policy debate on potential refinements to monetary policy regimes in countries with low and stable inflation such as the U.S. and Canada. For example, in Canada, a systematic review of the current inflation targeting framework is underway.2008-06-18T09:31:05+00:00enInflation, Nominal Portfolios, and Wealth Redistribution in Canada2008-06-18Inflation and pricesInflation targetsInflation: costs and benefitsMonetary policy frameworkSectoral balance sheetWorking Paper 2008-19https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/wp08-19.pdfInflation, Nominal Portfolios, and Wealth Redistribution in CanadaCésaire MehYaz TerajimaJune 2008DD3D31D5D58EE3E31E5E50Uncertainty, Inflation, and Welfare

This paper studies the welfare costs and the redistributive effects of inflation in the presence of idiosyncratic liquidity risk, in a micro-founded search-theoretical monetary model. We calibrate the model to match the empirical aggregate money demand and the distribution of money holdings across households, and study the effects of inflation under the implied degree of market incompleteness.2008-05-08T12:19:21+00:00enUncertainty, Inflation, and Welfare2008-05-08Inflation: costs and benefitsMonetary policy frameworkWorking Paper 2008-13 https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/wp08-13.pdfUncertainty, Inflation, and WelfareJonathan ChiuMiguel MolicoMay 2008EE4E40E5E50Inflation Targeting and Price-Level-Path Targeting in the GEM: Some Open Economy Considerations
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2008/03/working-paper-2008-6/
This paper compares the performance of simple inflation targeting (IT) and price-level path targeting (PLPT) rules to stabilize the macroeconomy, in response to a series of shocks, similar to those seen in Canada and the United States over the 1983 to 2004 period.2008-03-03T11:37:22+00:00enInflation Targeting and Price-Level-Path Targeting in the GEM: Some Open Economy Considerations2008-03-03Economic modelsInflation and pricesInflation: costs and benefitsMonetary policy frameworkWorking Paper 2008-6 https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/wp08-06.pdfInflation Targeting and Price-Level-Path Targeting in the GEM: Some Open Economy ConsiderationsDonald ColettiRené LalondeDirk MuirMarch 2008CC5C51C52EE1E17E3E31E5E52
