https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2003/06/working-paper-2003-16/
The author explores the role that Taylor-type rules can play in monetary policy, given the degree of uncertainty in the economy. The optimal rule is derived from a simple infinite-horizon model of the monetary transmission mechanism, with only additive uncertainty.2003-06-01T11:34:54+00:00enSome Notes on Monetary Policy Rules with Uncertainty2003-06-01Monetary policy and uncertaintyWorking Paper 2003-16 https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/wp03-16.pdfSome Notes on Monetary Policy Rules with UncertaintyGabriel SrourJune 2003EE5E52The Monetary Transmission Mechanism at the Sectoral Level
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2001/12/working-paper-2001-27/
This paper relies on simple vector autoregressions to investigate the monetary transmission mechanism in broad sectors of the Canadian economy. Two types of disaggregation are considered: one at the level of final expenditures, and one at the level of production.2001-12-01T15:13:30+00:00enThe Monetary Transmission Mechanism at the Sectoral Level2001-12-01Monetary policy transmissionWorking Paper 2001-27 https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/wp01-27.pdfThe Monetary Transmission Mechanism at the Sectoral LevelJean FarèsGabriel SrourDecember 2001EE5E52Price-Level versus Inflation Targeting in a Small Open Economy
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2001/12/working-paper-2001-24/
This paper compares two types of monetary policy: price-level targeting and inflation targeting. It reviews recent arguments that favour price-level targeting, and examines how certain factors, such as the nature of the shocks affecting the economy and the degree to which agents are forward-looking, bear upon the arguments.2001-12-01T11:55:05+00:00enPrice-Level versus Inflation Targeting in a Small Open Economy2001-12-01Monetary policy frameworkWorking Paper 2001-24https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/wp01-24.pdfPrice-Level versus Inflation Targeting in a Small Open EconomyGabriel SrourDecember 2001EE5E52Why Do Central Banks Smooth Interest Rates?
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2001/10/working-paper-2001-17/
It is commonly observed that central banks respond gradually to economic shocks, moving the interest rate in small discrete steps in the same direction over an extended period of time. This paper examines the empirical evidence regarding central banks' smoothing of interest rates, paying particular attention to the case of Canada.2001-10-01T16:29:45+00:00enWhy Do Central Banks Smooth Interest Rates?2001-10-01Monetary policy implementationWorking Paper 2001-17 https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/wp01-17.pdfWhy Do Central Banks Smooth Interest Rates?Gabriel SrourOctober 2001EE5The Sale of Durable Goods by a Monopolist in a Stochastic Environment
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/1998/10/working-paper-1998-18/
This paper examines the sale of durable goods by a monopolist in a stochastic partil equilibrium setting. It analyzes the responses of prices and output to various types of shocks and notes the differences with non-durable goods and competitive markets. It shows that behavior in this model with constant marginal costs of production is in […]1998-10-05T15:27:01+00:00enThe Sale of Durable Goods by a Monopolist in a Stochastic Environment1998-10-05Market structure and pricingWorking Paper 1998-18 https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/wp98-18.pdfThe Sale of Durable Goods by a Monopolist in a Stochastic EnvironmentGabriel SrourOctober 1998DD4
