Resumo: | |||||||||||||
Can trade tariffs be used to help the Central Bank stabilize the economic
cycle? To answer that question we build a New Keynesian Open Economy
model with two different countries and where firms have enough market power
to set prices in both Home and Foreign markets and calculate the optimal
monetary and tariff policy under the existence of a Zero Lower Bound on the
nominal interest rate. We perform a numerical exercise to analyse two distinct
situations: when only one country is restricted by the Zero Lower Bound and
when both countries face this constraint. Our results suggest that the Zero
Lower Bound creates a situation in which active use of trade tariffs can be
optimal, even if countries are cooperating.
