The appeal of reserve requirements lies in the pro-cyclical behavior of the exchange rate over the business cycle in developing countries. This enormously complicates the use of interest rates as a countercyclical instrument (because of its effect on the exchange rate) and calls for a second instrument. The paper suggests that conflicts may arise between the microprudential and macroprudential policy stancesPPN: PPN: 834981769Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-1-WBA | ZDB-110-WBLNo physical items for this record
