Monetary-fiscal interactions and the euro area’s vulnerability

Abstract

When monetary and fiscal policy are conducted as in the euro area, self-fulfilling expectations of economic agents can lead to undesirable fluctuations in output, inflation and government bond spreads. An alternative policy arrangement would enable more effective macroeconomic stabilisation. JEL Classification: E31, E32, E63
