Monetary Policy, Imbalances and Cricis
summary
Argues that since the mid‑1980s monetary policy becomes asymmetric: central banks cut rates decisively in crises but hesitate to tighten in booms, which fuels larger credit booms and deeper busts. Claims policy error is holding rates too low for too long, flooding liquidity through banks so new money inflates asset prices while CPI stays muted, enabled by €2,000 billion bond purchases and a regulatory response that expands supervision (financial supervision expansion (≈1,200 staff)) but fails to curb imbalances.
