• The Role of International Financial Integration in Monetary Policy Transmission

  Staff Working Paper 2024-3 Jing Cynthia Wu, Yinxi Xie, Ji Zhang

  We propose an open-economy New Keynesian model with financial integration that allows financial intermediaries to hold foreign long-term bonds. We study the implications of financial integration on monetary policy transmission. Among various aspects of financial integration, the bond duration plays a major role. These results hold for conventional and unconventional monetary policies.
