Abstract

In an era of economic uncertainty and escalating geopolitical risks, global growth is slowing while inflationary pressures persist. Policymakers face a delicate trade-off: curbing inflation without stifling recovery—a challenge that is especially acute in developing economies, where traditional tools often fall short. While monetary policy is a cornerstone of economic management, its real-world impact in these countries remains debated. Our recent study (Dramé and Léon, 2025) sheds light on this issue by examining how firms adjust their behavior in response to monetary policy changes. We find that managers do react to both tightening and easing measures—but their responses vary widely, revealing significant heterogeneity.
