Identifying policy-makers' objectives : an application to the Bank of Canada / by Nicholas Rowe and James Yetman. : FB3-2/100-11E
The objective of a policy authority can be thought of as the targeting of particular macroeconomic variables (hereafter called target variables) towards some level... The standard approach to testing hypotheses about the objective of a monetary authority is to estimate a policy reaction function... In this paper, we develop a new test to determine the objective of a policy authority and implement our test using Canadian data.--Introduction
