Abstract The implications of status preference in a simple open economy model are investigated in this paper. The open economy is modeled as a continuum of identical representative agents who have preferences over consumption and status. In the paper status is identified as relative wealth, which takes the form of relative holdings international financial assets. A symmetric macroeconomic equilibrium is derived in which status is the source of transitional dynamics for domestic consumption and the current account balance. This result illustrates another way to combine transitional dynamics with interior equilibria in the small open economy Ramsey model with perfect capital mobility. We also show that status preference plays a critical role in influencing the open economy’s adjustment to government expenditure and world interest rate shocks.

This paper develops a short-term model of a small open financially repressed economy characterised by unorganised money markets, intermediate goods imports, capital mobility and flexible exchange rates. The analysis shows that financial liberalisation, in the form of increased rate of interest on deposits and tight monetary policy, causes deflation for an economy with a high degree of capital mobility. However, for economies with a low degree of capital mobility, the possibility of stagflation cannot be ruled out. These results suggest that financial liberalisation in the form of lower reserve requirements should be recommended for economies with restricted transactions in the capital account.

Feedback Rule

Abstract This study develops a small-open-economy version of Benhabib, J., S. Schmitt-Grohé, and M. Uribe. 2001. “Monetary Policy and Multiple Equilibria.” American Economic Review 91: 167–186. We systematically explore the role of international capital mobility and the portfolio balance channel in terms of macroeconomic (in)stability when the government follows a commonly-adopted interest-rate feedback rule. In a one-traded-good model, the steady-state equilibrium, in general, is locally determinate; international capital mobility stabilizes the economy against business cycle fluctuations under a simple interest-rate feedback rule. In a two-good (traded and non-traded goods) model, the relationship between equilibrium (in)determinacy and the aggressiveness of interest rate rules is not monotonic, and crucially depends on households’ portfolio preferences. These results suggest that a unified interest rate rule can end up with very different consequences of macroeconomic (in)stability in an open economy from those in a closed economy.

Abstract This study examines the role of international capital mobility in shaping the relation between economic growth and structural transformation. We build a small open economy Ramsey model with two goods, tradables and nontradables. We show that if the long-run autarky interest rate of a small open economy is higher than the world interest rate, the employment and value-added shares of the tradables sector will rise over time. In the opposite case, the shares will fall. Because the autarky interest rate increases with the rate of technological progress, our result suggests that cross-country differences in the rate of technological progress may be a significant factor in accounting for diverse patterns of structural changes among countries.

This study examines the fiscal and monetary policy in Indonesia using the Mundell-Fleming model. The main objective of this study was to determine which policies are effective between fiscal and monetary policies of the national income in Indonesia because Indonesia is a small open economy with not perfect capital mobility. The analysis technique used is Two Stage Least Square (TSLS) by using secondary data base on International Financial Statistics, 2000.I 2014.II . The research result is monetary policy is more effective than the fiscal policy in which monetary policy multiplier at 0.0028 greater than fiscal policy multiplier 0.001316. The results are consistent with the theory of the Mundell-Fleming.

The Interest Rate

The purpose of this study is to formulate the monetary model of the economic growth in a small open economy (small open economy) with a free exchange rate system (flexible exchange rate system) and capital mobility is not perfect (imperfect capital mobility), as well as the factors that influence economic growth, exchange rates and interest rates with monetary approach (mathematically and empirically).This study uses a structural analysis approach to vector autoregresion with monthly data Indonesia in 2010-2014. The empirical results reveal that changes in the money supply is a significant negative effect on economic growth 0.1008 Indonesia. Moreover, economic growth is affected by the magnitude of the previous period of economic growth significantly by 0.391825, where the magnitude of the effect is determined by the strength of the exchange rate in response to changes in interest rates Indonesia, the greater the exchange rate response to changes in interest rates, the weakening influence of the period of economic growth prior to economic growth. For a small open economy (small open economy) with a free exchange rate system (flexible exchange rate system), then the value of the rupiah per dollar exchange rate is influenced significantly by the amount of money in circulation (0.063318), the exchange rate value of the last period (0.746), and the interest rate the previous period (0.3424), the interest rate two previous periods (-0.305848).For situations of capital mobility is not perfect, then the variable interest rate is treated as endogenous variables, the empirical results show that the level of BI rate significantly influenced only by the BI rate the previous month (1.4526) and the interest rate of the previous two months (0.524)
