Debates Surrounding the Fed's Monetary Policy Rule
Background:
The Fed has significantly broadened its policy making repertoire during the financial crisis and ensuing economic recession. After slashing the policy rates to nearly zero, the Fed turned to more unconventional policy measures such as directly purchasing asset-backed securities and Treasury bonds with the aim of lowering long-term interest rates. The Fed's balance sheet has expanded in size and deteriorated in quality, raising concerns about the difficulty of rolling back the Fed's monetary easing.
