  2. Chapter 6:Learning Objectives • Interest Rate Level Determination: • Loanable funds vs. Liquidity preference

  3. Chapter 6:Learning Objectives • Interest Rate Level Determination: • Loanable funds vs. Liquidity preference • Equilibrium Determination & Changes

  4. Chapter 6:Learning Objectives • Interest Rate Level Determination: • Loanable funds vs. Liquidity preference • Equilibrium Determination & Changes • Applications:

  5. Chapter 6:Learning Objectives • Interest Rate Level Determination: • Loanable funds vs. Liquidity preference • Equilibrium Determination & Changes • Applications: • Fisher effect

  6. Chapter 6:Learning Objectives • Interest Rate Level Determination: • Loanable funds vs. Liquidity preference • Equilibrium Determination & Changes • Applications: • Fisher effect • interest rates over the business cycle

  7. Chapter 6:Learning Objectives • Interest Rate Level Determination: • Loanable funds vs. Liquidity preference • Equilibrium Determination & Changes • Applications: • Fisher effect • interest rates over the business cycle • the impact of a tight monetary policy

  8. A Selection of Yields over Time

  9. Loanable Funds Theory • Focus is on the Market for bonds

  10. Loanable Funds Theory • Focus is on the Market for bonds • Bond demand (Bd) is determined by investors’ preferences

  11. Loanable Funds Theory • Focus is on the Market for bonds • Bond demand (Bd) is determined by investors’ preferences • Bond supply (Bs) is determined by borrowers’ preferences

  12. Loanable Funds Theory • Focus is on the Market for bonds • Bond demand (Bd) is determined by investors’ preferences • Bond supply (Bs) is determined by borrowers’ preferences • For discussion purposes, ASSUME a one-year discount bond •  $PD is inversely related to R (=[$FV-$PD]/$PD

  13. Loanable Funds Theory • Focus is on the Market for bonds • Bond demand (Bd) is determined by investors’ preferences • Bond supply (Bs) is determined by borrowers’ preferences • For discussion purposes, ASSUME a one-year discount bond •  $PD is inversely related to R (=[$FV-$PD]/$PD) • The interaction between Bond demand and supply determines the equilibrium interest rate

  14. From Bond demand/supply to Loanable funds demand/supply BOND DEMAND=SUPPLY OF LOANABLE FUNDS

  15. From Bond demand/supply to Loanable funds demand/supply BOND DEMAND=SUPPLY OF LOANABLE FUNDS BOND SUPPLY=DEMAND FOR LOANABLE FUNDS

  27. Two Applications • The Fisher Effect: how inflation expectations affect nominal interest rates  distinction between nominal and real interest rates (Recall: R=+e)Figure 6.6

  28. Two Applications • The Fisher Effect: how inflation expectations affect nominal interest rates  distinction between nominal and real interest rates (Recall: R=+e)Figure 6.6 • The business cycle and interest rates: how changes in economic activity affect nominal interest ratesFigure 6.8

  34. Liquidity Preference Theory • Focus is on the role of monetary policy

  35. Liquidity Preference Theory • Focus is on the role of monetary policy • Demand for money (Md) is determined by the preferences of holders of money ( M1)

  36. Liquidity Preference Theory • Focus is on the role of monetary policy • Demand for money (Md) is determined by the preferences of holders of money ( M1) • Supply of Money is determined by the central bank and the financial sector

  37. Liquidity Preference Theory • Focus is on the role of monetary policy • Demand for money (Md) is determined by the preferences of holders of money ( M1) • Supply of Money is determined by the central bank and the financial sector • The interaction of money demand/supply produces an equilibrium interest rate

  38. Why Hold Money? • TRANSACTIONS MOTIVE: used in the buying and selling of goods and services

  39. Why Hold Money? • TRANSACTIONS MOTIVE: used in the buying and selling of goods and services • PRECAUTIONARY MOTIVE: used as a “buffer” against unexpected events

  40. Why Hold Money? • TRANSACTIONS MOTIVE: used in the buying and selling of goods and services • PRECAUTIONARY MOTIVE: used as a “buffer” against unexpected events • SPECULATIVE MOTIVE: represents one asset in a “portfolio” of assets

  45. The Liquidity Trap • When nominal interest rates are close to zero can monetary policy be effective

  46. The Liquidity Trap • When nominal interest rates are close to zero can monetary policy be effective? • It has been suggested that monetary policy is then like pushing on a string

  47. The Liquidity Trap • When nominal interest rates are close to zero can monetary policy be effective? • It has been suggested that monetary policy is then like pushing on a string • But, monetary policy is more than just changing the money supply or even changing interest rates. Its about changing expectations of future inflation. The trap can, in principle, be avoided

  48. Summary • There are 2 theories of interest rate determination: the loanable funds and liquidity preference models

  49. Summary • There are 2 theories of interest rate determination: the loanable funds and liquidity preference models • Loanable funds focuses on the bond market

  50. Summary • There are 2 theories of interest rate determination: the loanable funds and liquidity preference models • Loanable funds focuses on the bond market • Liquidity preference focuses on the demand for money and the role of monetary policy
