Abstract

Nominal Effects of Fiscal and Monetary Policies in Greece

This paper investigates the effects of fiscal and monetary policies on the price level and the exchange rate in Greece. Expansionary monetary policies are found to be significantly responsible for inflation and the depreciation of the drachma. Budget deficits have milder inflationary effects and, in the short-run, appreciate the currency. Fiscal expansions are also followed by increases in the money growth, a finding that shows a conflict between monetary and fiscal policies and argues in favor of more independence for the central bank
