Fiscal And Monetary Policy

Recent developments in macroeconomics and macroeconomic policy, what has come to be known as ?New Consensus in Macroeconomics?, downgrades the role of fiscal policy and upgrades that of monetary policy. This contribution aims to consider this particular contention by focusing on fiscal policy. We consider fiscal policy within the current ?new consensus? theoretical framework, which views fiscal policy as ineffective, and argue that it deserves a great deal more attention paid to it than it has been recently. We review and appraise recent and not so recent theoretical and empirical developments on the fiscal policy front. The possibility of fiscal and monetary policy coordination is proposed and discussed to conclude that it deserves a great deal more attention and careful consideration than it has been given to in the past. Our overall conclusion is that discretionary application of fiscal and monetary policy in a coordinated and focused manner as a tool of macroeconomic policy deserves serious attention paid to it than hitherto.

Fiscal And Monetary Policy

The research subject includes the theoretical basis and mechanism of fiscal and monetary policy coordination. The study aims to justify the conceptual basis of fiscal- monetary policy interactions to ensure economic development. Methods. To achieve the appropriate tasks, we used a set of methods and approaches that helped ensure our investigation's conceptual unity. The systemic and structural approaches, analysis and synthesis methods, comparison, generalization, modeling, and scientific abstraction are applied. Results. In this paper, we improved the theoretical and methodological foundations of fiscal and monetary policy coordination. The author highlighted the necessity to use the institutional approach in that case. Also, we gave practical proposals to develop the system for assessing the effectiveness of the coordination of fiscal and monetary policy. Practical implications. Government economic policy and instruments of its implementation. Conclusions. Empirical experience has shown the advisability of fiscal and monetary policy coordination to ensure sustainable endogenous economic growth. Coordination of government financial policy measures in the context of the economic cycle stages should be based on an institutional approach. The interaction of fiscal and monetary policies should focus on increasing social welfare and the maintenance of long-term macroeconomic stability. The adaptive interaction of monetary and fiscal mechanisms and the improvement of the state's economic system's institutional architectonics contribute to the intensification of business entities' economic activity. Meanwhile, those factors positively influence on economy's competitiveness. The necessity of introducing a system for assessing the effectiveness of the coordination of fiscal and monetary policy determines effective measures of financial regulation at a certain stage of economic development.
