Changes in Equity Risk Perceptions: Global Consequences and Policy Responses Warwick J McKibbin ANU and Brookings Institution And David Vines Oxford, ANU and CEPR Presented at the Bank of Canada Workshop on “Global Models and the Transmission of Shocks, 22 May 2003 Background Two broad views of the current global economic slowdown • The result of weak aggregate demand that can be offset through appropriate adjustments to monetary policies • The results of a reduction in aggregate supply resulting from A downward revision in productivity growth in the OECD The collapse of the “new economy” bubble An increase in risk since September 11 and the war on terrorism Goals of the Paper To understand the current world economic slowdown in terms of the contribution of supply versus demand shocks when an equity bubble bursts To explore the transmission of equity risk shocks between countries To explore the optimal response of monetary policy in response to a sharp equity price adjustment To explore whether there are gains to policy coordination in response to equity price shocks Attempt to Quantify the Key Issues using a global model Use the MSG3 model version 50o (2 sector version of G-Cubed) New version based on GTAP I/O data www.gcubed.com The G-Cubed Model Key features • Based on explicit intertemporal optimization by households and firms in each economy in a dynamic setting • Substantial sectoral dis-aggregation with macroeconomic structure • Explicit treatment of financial assets with stickiness in physical capital differentiated from flexibility of financial capital • Short run deviation from optimizing behavior due to stickiness in labor markets, myopia • Short run “New Keynesian” Model with Neoclassical steady state G-Cubed Model 12 sectors production in each economy • Plus a capital good producing sector • Plus a household durable production sector (I.e. housing) Estimation of KLEM technology in production and consumption Tracks flows of international trade at the sectoral level Tracks flows of international capital Distinguishes between relatively traded and non trade goods (all goods are potentially tradeable) : The Structure of the G-Cubed Use Table 1 ... 12 C I G 1 ...

US not affected much by whether the shock is in the US or in the OECD but international trade and capital flows and exchange rates are affected Developing countries absorb some of the capital released

significant effects on the real economy Both aggregate demand and supply are affected. Monetary policy can help in the short to smooth the adjustment but it can do little to offset the underlying shock Conclusion Transmission • Within countries an equity risk shock lowers real interest rates, Lowers real wages causes a capital outflow, raises other asset prices like housing Lowers investment but raises consumption and net exports • Across Countries lowers real interest rates, causes a capital inflow, raises all asset prices including equities and housing Raises investment and consumption Lowers net exports Conclusion Monetary Policy Response • Within countries experiencing an equity risk shock Demand falls more than supply thus a loosening of monetary policy can dampen to employment losses in the short run • In countries not experiencing an equity risk shock Demand rises more than supply Employment rises but inflation falls due to falling prices in affected countries and an exchange rate appreciation Interest rates should fall because of a fall in the global real interest rate Conclusion Gains from Policy Coordination • Compared the the optimal non-cooperative policies there is little gained from cooperation in the face of an OECD wide shock • In reality the current policy stance of the G7 particularly Europe and Japan are very far from the optimal policies in this paper (real interest rates in Europe and Japan are too high). To the extent that real world cooperation might move these region towards more sensible policy, cooperation could achieve significant gains Background Papers www.gcubed.com www.sensiblepolicy.com
