Abstrak- Adanya pandangan bahwa liberalisasi keuangan berperan penting dalam mendorong pertumbuhan ekonomi menyebabkan banyak negara-negara berkembang melakukan serangkaian kebijakan liberalisasi di sektor keuangan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi secara empiris dampak liberalisasi keuangan terhadap pertumbuhan ekonomi dan variabel makro ekonomi lainnya di Indonesia. Penelitian ini mengembangkan model empiris melalui pengukuran liberalisasi keuangan secara de fakto dan de jure. Hasil estimasi model Vector Autoregression (VAR) dalam pendekatan de jure menunjukkan bahwa indeks liberalisasi keuangan secara statistik tidak berpengaruh siginifikan terhadap pertumbuhan ekonomi dan variabel makro lainnya (inflasi, nilai tukar dan suku bunga). Dalam pendekatan de facto, hasil pengujian kointegrasi menunjukkan adanya hubungan jangka panjang antara pertumbuhan ekonomi dan seluruh indikator yang digunakan sebagai proksi liberalisasi keuangan. Hasil estimasi pada pendekatan de facto melalui model Vector Error Corrrection Model (VECM) mengindikasikan bahwa liberalisasi keuangan memberikan efek negatif terhadap pertumbuhan ekonomi melalui peningkatan kredit perbankan terhadap sektor swasta. Secara keseluruhan hasil penelitian ini tidak dapat menemukan bukti kuat terkait adanya dampak positif liberalisasi keuangan terhadap pertumbuhan ekonomi dalam small open economy seperti di Indonesia.

Abstract Investigating the causes and motives for reserves’ accumulation in a highly dollarized small open economy such as that of Lebanon is of extreme importance, especially since fluctuations in foreign reserves have been demonstrated to be a leading cause of economic and financial instability. For an emerging economy such as that of Lebanon, which is subject to internal and external shocks, the accumulation and holding of reserves signal, among other things, credibility and financial strength. Therefore, identifying the factors that determine the level of reserves in the long and short term is crucial for the stability of the entire economy. For an in-depth understanding of those factors, this study employs the vector error correction model (VECM), which helps distinguish between short- and long-term effects. The results indicate that currency substitution has the most significant impact on reserves in the short and long terms, while the trade balance and the real effective exchange rate have substantial effects but only in the long terms. The study also reveals that the reserves held by the central bank fulfil all the reserves’ adequacy criteria and are in alignment with the reserves’ adequacy ratios.

The current general wisdom regarding fiscal policy in response to fluctuations in economic cycles is to adopt countercyclical strategies: contractive during a boom to avoid overheating the economy and expansive during a recession to stimulate economic activity. This paper attempts to investigate the practical behavior of fiscal policy in Indonesia in response to economic cycles to establish whether it follows general fiscal wisdom (countercyclical) or amplifies the cycle (procyclical). An error correction model (ECM) and an alternative model to deal with the possible endogeneity problem are utilized. This paper shows that fiscal policy in Indonesia tends to be procyclical. Observations of some other ASEAN countries, namely Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore and Thailand, indicate that Singapore could be the only country in ASEAN that is able to implement a countercyclical fiscal policy.

This thesis is about monetary and fiscal policy in New Keynesian DSGE models. Chapter 2 presents the baseline New Keynesian DSGE model. Monetary policy is in the form of a simple interest rate Taylor-type policy rule, while fiscal policy is exogenous. Chapter 3 extends the model of Chapter 2 to include fiscal policy. Now, both monetary and fiscal policy are allowed to follow feedback rules. Chapter 4 sets up a New Keynesian model of a semi-small open economy with sovereign risk premia. Finally, Chapter 5 builds a New Keynesian DSGE model consisting of two heterogeneous countries participating in a monetary union.Throughout most of the thesis, policy is conducted via "simple", "implementable" and "optimized" feedback policy rules. Using such rules, the aim of policy is twofold: firslty, it aims to stabilize the economy when the latter is hit by shocks; secondly, it aims to improve the economy's resource allocation.

Penelitian ini melihat dampak kebijakan fiskal terhadap output dan inflasi serta melihat apakah terdapat diskresi kebijakan fiskal dan bagaimana dampaknya terhadap volatilitas output dan inflasi. Model Vector Error Correction Model (VECM)diaplikasikan atas data triwulanan, mencakup periode 1990 - 2009. Hasil empiris menunjukkan bahwa terdapat hubungan kointegrasi antara pengeluaran pemerintah dan pajak terhadap output dalam jangka panjang. Dalam jangka panjang pengenaan pajak berdampak positif terhadap pertumbuhan ekonomi sementara pengeluaran pemerintah tidak. Penyesuaian jangka pendek menunjukkan bahwa shock kenaikan pengeluaran pemerintah berdampak positif terhadap output sementara shock kenaikan pajak berdampak negatif.Lebih dominannya pengaruh pengeluaran pemerintah terhadap output dalam jangka pendek dibandingkan dengan pajak menunjukkan masih cukup efektifnya kebijakan ini untuk menstimulasi pertumbuhan ekonomi khususnya dalam masa resesi. Sementara itu kenaikan pengeluaran pemerintahmenyebabkan penurunan inflasi, sementara peningkatan pajak menyebabkan peningkatan inflasi. Studi ini juga menunjukkan tidak adanya diskresi kebijakan fiskal yang dilakukan oleh pemerintah.Keywords: Inflation, output, fiscal policy, tax, discretionary, VECM.JEL Classification: E31, E62

Abstract The global crisis that erupted in 2007 led many countries to embark on countercyclical fiscal policies as a way to cushion the blow of a depressed aggregate demand. Advocates of discretionary measures emphasize that fiscal policy can indeed stimulate the economy. The main goal of this work is to assess whether the fiscal policies pursued by the Brazilian government in the aftermath of the 2008 crisis, succeeded in bringing the economy back on track in a sustainable fashion. To this end, the fiscal multipliers of five different shocks are studied in a small open-economy New Keynesian framework. Our results point to the government spending and public investment as the most effective fiscal tools for combating the crisis. However, the highest fiscal multiplier turned out to be the one associated with excise tax reductions.
