The effect of monetary policy on firm-level uncertainty
Uncertainty at the firm-level falls on FOMC announcement days with substantial variation both across firms and over time. We find that this is not related to commonly used measures of monetary policy shocks which capture surprises about the expected path of the policy rate. Rather it is driven by changes in uncertainty around the expected path of the policy rate. This effect is attenuated for firms that have higher growth opportunities (as measured by Tobin’s Q).
期刊介绍:
Many economists today are concerned by the proliferation of journals and the concomitant labyrinth of research to be conquered in order to reach the specific information they require. To combat this tendency, Economics Letters has been conceived and designed outside the realm of the traditional economics journal. As a Letters Journal, it consists of concise communications (letters) that provide a means of rapid and efficient dissemination of new results, models and methods in all fields of economic research.
