Monetary Policy at the Zero Lower Bound, February 15, 2011
Papers presented at the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco's annual macroeconomics conference explored the effects of Federal Reserve long-term bond purchases on longer-term interest rates; improvements to macroeconomic models to better account for the zero bound; and optimal monetary policy at the zero bound. Although the zero lower bound is a substantial constraint on traditional monetary policy, the Fed still has other policy options available that can improve U.S. economic performance.
