MONETARY POLICY AND REGIONAL ECmOMIC ACTIVITY Introduction It has been accepted by regional-urban economists that fiscal policy has a differential impact with respect to economic regions. Federal ex­ penditures are used to improve a specific region's economic position relative to other regions.

In the case of monetary policy shock (Figure2), interest rate increases, while prices and monetary base decrease by construction.

Both revenue and spending increase mo- mentarily Author: Igor Ézio Maciel Silva. Taken together, the evidence suggests that immediately after a positive monetary policy shock is realized, unconstrained firms are traded lower on the event day, thus generating a positive return differential between the constrained and unconstrained firms that is on average % for a positive 1% surprise increase.

They study the effect of regional monetary shocks on regional housing prices, with their identification strategy implicitly abstracting from the aggregate effects of national monetary policy changes. The regional monetary policy shocks are estimated based on a counterfactual monetary policy rule.

First, following a contractionary shock to monetary policy, net funds raised by the business sector increases for roughly a year.

Thereafter, as the recession induced by the policy shock gains momentum, net funds raised by the business sector begins to fall.

Traditionally, monetary policy is assumed to stabilize economic activity and inflation without affecting the economy’s productive ca-pacity—that is, its potential output. However, if weak demand erodes capacity, then monetary policy may be able to expand capacity by stimulating economic activity.
