OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Monetary Policy without the Taylor Principle
We show that a vanishingly small friction in intertemporal co-ordination results in a unique bounded equilibrium in the New Keynesian model. This is the equilibrium customarily used to guide monetary policy, also known as the minimum-state-variable solution. But it does not rely on the Taylor Principle or any other off-equilibrium policy threat, and is therefore also immune to the Fiscal Theory of the Price Level. This liberates policy analysis from a thorny equilibrium selection issue.
