چکیده
در این مطالعه علاوه بر بررسی نقش سیاست پولی بر دستیابی به اهداف متداول سیاستی ثبات تورم و ثبات تولید، به بررسی نقش آن و نیز نقش اهرم مالی بر بهبود ثبات مالی از طریق کنترل نرخ رشد اعتبارات اعطایی بانکی می پردازیم. برای این منظور ابتدا با استفاده از مدل چرخشی مارکف به برآورد قاعده سیاستی پرداخته شد که در آن نرخ رشد پایه پولی در واکنش به شکاف تورم و شکاف تولید تعدیل می شود. نتایج نشان داد که بانک مرکزی بیشتر به دنبال دستیابی به هدف ثبات اقتصادی از طریق اعمال سیاست پولی انبساطی بوده است؛ به طوری که دستیابی به این هدف از پایداری و دوام بالاتری نسبت به هدف ثبات تورم در طی دوره زمانی مورد مطالعه در اقتصاد ایران برخوردار می باشد. در ادامه، یک قاعده سیاستی برآورد می شود که در آن نرخ رشد اعتبارات اعطایی به بخش خصوصی (به عنوان معیار ثبات مالی)، در واکنش به شوک سیاست پولی و اهرم مالی (نسبت بدهی بخش خصوصی به تولید) تعدیل می شود. نتایج نشان داد که در طی سال های تحت مطالعه، از شاخص اهرم مالی به عنوان شاخص احتیاطی برای مقابله با ریسک سیستماتیک و دستیابی به ثبات مالی استفاده نشده است؛ به طوری که علی رغم بدتر شدن وضعیت ترازنامه کارآفرینان از طریق افزایش بدهی بخش خصوصی، رشد اعتبارات اعطایی به بخش های اقتصاد نیز افزایش یافته است. با این وجود نتایج بیانگر عملکرد مناسب سیاست گذار پولی در بهبود ثبات مالی از طریق کنترل نرخ رشد اعتبارات اعطایی می باشد.The Investigation of the role of Monetary Policy and Financial Leverage on Financial Stability in the Economy of Iran
Policy rate and macroprudential tool are two of the main policy tools that affect the financial situation of the economy. While the policy rate is well-known monetary policy tool among most central bankers to achieve price stability and output stability in the economy, macroprudential measures have resurged recently and are becoming an increasingly active instrument. The main advantage of having two sets of policy tools is that they can target different policy objectives. In empirical studies, the effectiveness of a macroprudential measure is measured through its effect on procyclicality of financial risks (the correlation between GDP growth and financial risk variables such as credit growth and financial leverage), or through the level of financial risk (for example, the level of Credit growth and financial leverage). In this study, following Bailliu and et.al (2015), we define macroprudential policy as a policy that uses primarily prudential tools to limit systemic financial risk. For this purpose, credit growth is used as a substitute for financial instability. Also, we focus on the leverage index as a precautionary tool to deal with excessive credit growth. Although there seems to be a broad consensus on the central role of macroprudential policy measures in containing financial instability build-ups (IMF, 2014a), there are different views on the role of monetary policy in this matter. Smets, (2014) distinguishes between the three main views. The first view is that monetary policy should only focus on traditional objectives, such as inflation and real economic activity. In the second view, financial stability is at least as important as traditional objectives, and that decisions regarding the setting of policy interest rates should equally consider financial stability concerns. The third view, which is increasingly gaining consensus in the aftermath of the Global Financial Crisis, acknowledges that in some circumstances, monetary policy may deviate from its traditional objective in order to support financial stability, if costs from doing so are smaller than benefits (IMF, 2015b). Hence, in this study, in addition to examining the role of monetary policy in achieving the common goals of the policy of stability of inflation and the stability of output in the economy, we examined its role as well as the role of financial leverage in improving the financial stability of Iran through controlling the growth rate of bank credits. For this purpose, first, using the Markov switching model, we estimated the policy rule in which the rate of base money growth is adjusted in response to the inflation gap and the output gap. The results showed that the central bank has been more seeking to achieve the goal of economic stability through the application of expansionary monetary policy; so that achieving this goal has a higher stability and durability than the goal of inflation stability during the studied period in the Iranian economy. Then, the policy rule is estimated in which the growth rate of credit to private sector (as a measure of financial stability) is adjusted in response to monetary policy shocks and financial leverage (the ratio of private sector debt to output). The results showed that the financial leverage index has not been used as a precautionary measure for tackling systematic risk and achieving financial stability during the years under study; In spite of worsening the status of entrepreneurs' balance sheets by increasing private sector debt, credits growth to various sectors of the economy have also increased. Nevertheless, the results are indicated the proper performance of monetary policy in improving financial stability by controlling the growth rate of credits. So that, the monetary policymaker, through controlling excessive credit expansion, reduces the risk and probability of a default on loans by entrepreneurs and thus has led to improved financial stability of the economy.
