Instruments Instruments Instruments Instruments : variables directly controlled by the central bank (e.g. an interest rate charged on reserves borrowed by the central bank) Intermediate target variablesIntermediate target variablesIntermediate target variablesIntermediate target variables: lie in the sequence of links that run from policy instruments to real economic activity. For example, faster than expected money growth may signal that real output is expanding more rapidly than was previously thought. The central bank might change its operating target (in this case, raise the interbank interest rate) to keep the money growth rate on a path believed to be consistent with achieving its policy goals. In this case, money growth is serving as an intermediate target variable. We are going to use both money supply and money market interest rate as the policy variables.

Open-market operations by the CB are the principal tool of monetary policy: the CB can increase or reduce the monetary base by buying government debt from banks or selling government debt to banks.

• First we have to decide the optimal lag length of the VAR model. Doing it through E-views, we obtain the following table. As we see, the most information criteria suggest using 4 lags.

• However, in order to compute impulse responses, we need to estimate the coefficients of the
SMA(∞) representation. Structural moving average (SMA) representation is derived through the
SVAR(p) representation. And SVAR(p), in turn, can be derived from the VAR(p).
A SVAR representation can be derived from the reduced VAR by multiplying the VAR model
with a Q matrix .

As we see, the structural VAR captures not only a lagged but also contemporaneous
relationships among all the variables of the model. The contemporaneous effects are
summarized in the matrix Q. Also the VAR shocks are related to the structural shocks with the
formula:
eQu =
Obviously, Q is a 3x3 matrix since there are 3 variables in the model.
Now, we have to make some identification assumptions on matrix Q, in order to exactly
identify the SVAR parameters using the estimated VAR parameters. For this reason, we proceed
to the following manipulations:
eeQueQu ⋅Θ==⇔= −1

According to our assumption of the exogeneity of the policy shock, we need to make Θ (thus Q)
lower triangular. In practice, that means setting 3 elements of the matrix equal to zero.
However, E-views uses a slightly different notation of presenting the relation between the VAR
and the SVAR shocks. It assumes that:
eBuA ⋅=⋅ So nothing changes in essence. What was previously as matrix Q now can be decomposed as:
ABQ 1−= So in order to identify matrices A and B, we need to impose 3 restrictions on matrix Q. In the
following table, in the first part, exactly we impose these restrictions by making A a lower
triangular matrix with 1 as diagonal elements and making B a diagonal matrix. E-views will
estimate the remaining elements of these matrices. The estimates are given in the second part of
the table.
Structural VAR Estimates Sample (adjusted): 1999Q1 2004Q2 Included observations: 22 after adjustments Estimation method: method of scoring (analytic derivatives) Convergence achieved after 9 iterations Structural VAR is just-identified

Now everything is done! We have already estimated the coefficients of the VAR model, i.e.
elements of Π matrices, and previously we estimated matrices A and B (which yields Q). The
final step is to plug equations of this system one into the other, then iterating backward in time
and finally obtaining the SMA(∞) representation:

Where Φ are 3x3 matrices, whose elements captures the impulse responses. More precisely, the analytical expression of the system above is:

After specifying matrices A and B, E-views can compute automatically the impulse responses
and yields the following graphs. We concentrate on impulse responses of all variables to a
money shock only.
The impulse response function plots the percentage deviation of a variable from its steady state
against periods of time after the shock. So, for example, a money shock causes money in the first
period after the shock (t=1) to increase almost to 0.017% over its steady state, as we see in the
next graph.

Comments of the impulse responses for ESTONIA
� The impulse response of money and inflation due to a money supply shock is statistically
significant, but is almost zero.
� The impulse response of output due to a money supply shock is not statistically
significant, almost zero.
� The impulse responses of money, inflation and output, using the interest rate for policy
shocks, are not statistically significant, almost zero.
However, what we could say if the results were significant (in fact we have to include more
observations in our sample to make results robust) :
� Before EU accession, an expansionary policy (using money supply shocks) made
inflation to fall. Also a contractionary policy (using interest rate) made inflation to rise.
These results deviate from the standard theory (price puzzle). After the EU accession,
however, the results are expected according to the theory if we consider a money supply
shock. However, the price puzzle remains and it is statistically significant (very small
though) in the case of interest rate policy shock. Hence, the “liquidity effect” does not
hold in the case of interest rate policy.
� Before EU accession, an expansionary policy (using money supply shocks) made output
to fall. Also a contractionary policy (using interest rate) made output to rise. These results
deviate again with the standard theory (output puzzle). After the EU accession, however,
the results are the expected ones if we consider a money supply shock. However, the
output puzzle remains in the case of interest rate policy shock. Hence, the “liquidity
effect” does not hold in the case of interest rate policy.
The results for the other countries, Latvia and Lithuania , are similar. Furthermore, the
impulse responses in all cases are either not statistically significant or almost zero. Hence, the
effects of monetary policy shocks are very weak. (Again the problem is the lack of sufficient
number of observations that would enable us to derive more robust results).
