Complements or Substitutes?
“Are monetary policy and macroprudential
policy effective only when they tighten at the
same time, or it is possible to tighten one but
loosen the other?”
“In other words, must the two policies pull in
the same direction (be used as complements),
or can they pull in opposite directions (be used
as substitutes)?”http://www.bis.org/speeches/sp150415.pdf 12
Bruno, I Shim and H S Shin,
“Comparative assessment of macroprudential policies”, BIS Working Papers, forthcoming, 2015
“we find that macroprudential
policies and monetary policy
often pull in the same direction.
There is a modest positive
correlation of around 0.2 between
tightening macroprudential and
monetary policy measures”http://www.bis.org/speeches/sp150415.pdf 13
“Initial research, including some conducted here at the IMF, suggests that both monetary and macroprudential policies have some effect in constraining credit growth, and that the two tend to be complements, not substitutes, although results vary by type of shock.”

“be mindful of the limits”
• Having said all this, we should be mindful of the limits to what can be achieved through macroprudential policy.
• Most macroprudential tools are aimed at the banking sector, especially the regulated banking sector. – Their design is influenced by the experience of past
crises.
– Watchwords are credit growth, leverage, maturity mismatch, complexity and ”too big to fail”.
– While these factors are still relevant, it does not follow that all future bouts of financial disruption must follow the same mechanism as in the past.”

“Few of these forces are amenable to the
macroprudential policies that have been
deployed so far. All this goes to show that
macroprudential policy is more than a
specific toolkit. It is about a perspective, or a
frame of mind.”

• “The changing patterns of financial
intermediation mean that we need to revise
constantly our understanding of the
relevant players in the financial system.”
• “Long-term investors have become
increasingly important in recent years.
– Some of them are reaching for yield,
– but many long-term investors are chasing
disappearing yield in their attempt to hedge
duration, as government bond yields have
plunged in recent weeks.”
