1 Monetary Policy with Heterogeneous Agents: Insights from Tank Models Davide Debortoli Jordi Galí October 2017 Davide Debortoli, Jordi Galí () Insights from TANK October / 23
2 Motivation Heterogeneity in Monetary Models - idiosyncratic shocks - incomplete markets - borrowing constraints - supply side as in conventional NK models! HANK Main lessons: - heterogeneity in MPCs! role of redistribution - direct vs. indirect e ects Drawbacks - computational complexity - limited use in classroom or as a policy input Wanted: a simple tractable framework that is a good approximation Davide Debortoli, Jordi Galí () Insights from TANK October / 23
3 Present Paper An Organizing Framework - heterogeneity between constrained and unconstrained households - heterogeneity within unconstrained households Baseline Two-Agent New Keynesian model (TANK) - constant share of hand-to-mouth households - redistribution through scal rule Question: How well does a TANK model capture the main predictions of HANK models regarding the aggregate economy s response to aggregate shocks? Davide Debortoli, Jordi Galí () Insights from TANK October / 23
4 Main Findings A baseline TANK model with a suitably calibrated transfer rule provides a good approximation to a prototypical HANK model - e ects of monetary policy and other shocks - role of scal policy Isomorphic to a modi ed RANK model Application: Optimal monetary policy in TANK - heterogeneity as a source of a policy tradeo - calibrated model: price stability nearly optimal (as in RANK!) Davide Debortoli, Jordi Galí () Insights from TANK October / 23

Preferences: E 0 t=0 β t U(C s t, N s t ; Z t ) where C 1 σ 1 U(C, N; Z) 1 σ N 1+ϕ Z 1 + ϕ Θ t [0, 1] : set of unconstrained ("Ricardian") households in period t - measure 1 λ t - access to one-period bonds with riskless return R t. Goal: derive a (generalized) Euler equation for aggregate consumption - in the spirit of Werning (2015), but di erent emphasis Davide Debortoli, Jordi Galí () Insights from TANK October / 23
