Abstract
Financial Structure and Monetary Rules
The structure of the American banking and financial system is changing rapidly and radically, because of new technology, institutional innovation, and deregulation. In particular, legal ceilings on deposit interest rates are disappearing, even on checking accounts. Proposals to pay interest on bank reserves at a rate indexed to the central bank discount rate, and in turn to index the discount rate to market rates, may be adopted. These changes alter the properties of the monetary system, in response both to central bank operations and to non-policy shocks. A short-hand summary is that they make the Hicksian “LM” curve very steep. Different monetary rules distribute differently, among interest rates, output, and prices, the effects of various kinds of shocks. These distributions are significantly altered when the financial structure changes. Both the desirability of structural reforms and if they are adopted, the suitability of particular rules of monetary policy depend on these alterations in the properties of the system.
