UK QE reconsidered: the real economy effects of monetary policy in the UK, 1990-2012 – an empirical analysis
Empirical studies of so called ‘unconventional’ monetary policy – ‘Quantitative Easing’ or ‘Large Scale Asset Purchases’ - since the North Atlantic Financial Crisis of 2007-2009 in the United Kingdom and elsewhere have mainly focussed on the effect of policy on intermediate variables rather than the stated ultimate goal of such policies, boosting nominal demand and GDP growth. Secondly and relatedly they tend to focus on the crisis and post-crisis period, a time of extraordinary economic and financial dislocation, which creates counterfactual and attribution problems and fails to capture typical macroeconomic lag dynamics. Adopting the approach of Voutsinas and Werner (2010), and building on Lyonnet and Werner’s (2012) study of UK QE, this paper addresses these weaknesses by 1) examining the impact of various different monetary policy instruments (including Quantitative Easing) directly on UK nominal GDP growth; and 2) using a quarterly time series beginning in the first quarter of 1990 and up to the last quarter of 2012 (92 observations in total). We use the Hendry ‘general-to-specific’ econometric methodology to estimate a parsimonious model. The results show that disaggregated bank credit to the real economy (households and firms) has the most significant impact on nominal GDP growth. Changes to the central bank’s interest rate, central bank reserves, and total central bank asset ratios drop out of the model as insignificant. The policy implication it that, as private banks continue to shrink their balance sheets in the UK and Europe following the North Atlantic Crisis of 2008, central banks might wish to consider ‘unconventional’ monetary policies that more directly boost credit to the real economy and thus nominal GDP growt

A Novel Fluorous Biphasic System: Werner-type Complexes in Fluorous Media
Fluorous chemistry has seen a number of advances since its birth in the early 1990s. One of the most attractive characteristics of fluorous solvents is their unique solubility properties depending on temperature. This phenomenon has led to the development of a wide range of catalysts that are modified with fluorous tags and are used in biphasic catalysis and easily recovered. Many fluorous phase transfer catalysts are confined to bringing small ions into fluorous media by using fluorous onium or crown ether vehicles. The most popular method to bring transition metal complexes into fluorous media is quite limited, usually resulting in ligand tuning and thus a change in reactivity at the metal center. This can be circumvented by pairing a cationic transition metal with a highly fluorous anion rendering the neutral species highly fluorophilic. To achieve this goal, we chose to use fluorous BArf���, [B(3,5-C���H���(Rf���)���)���]���, as the mode of transport and pair it with classic Werner-type complexes that recently have been shown act as organocatalysts in enantioselective Michael additions. The literature synthesis of Na[B(3,5-C���H���(Rf���)���)���] (3) was improved and through salt metathesis two new fluorophilic salts were made. The Werner-type trication [Co(en)���]����� was solubilized in PFMC (perfluoromethylcyclohexane) to generate [Co(en)���][B(3,5-C���H���(Rf���)���)���]��� (4). This fluorophilic salt was found to be preferentially soluble in fluorous media with a partition coefficient in PFMC/H���O of 99.0:1.0 and in PFMC/CH���C���H��� of >99.3:<0.7. Another Werner-type trication, [Co(R,R-chxn)���]�����, was also paired with [B(3,5-C���H���(Rf���)���)���]��� to afford [Co(R,R-chxn)���][B(3,5-C���H���(Rf���)���)���]��� (5), whose partition coefficients in PFMC/H���O and PFMC/CH���C���H��� were the same as 4. Within the scope of Werner-type complexes, this work constitutes a significant stride toward developing a series of compounds that bring the concept of organocatalysis into fluorous media. The new compounds 3-5 show high preferences for the fluorous phase and provide a baseline for future Werner-type salt metathesis with fluorous BArf���
Towards a new research programme on ‘banking and the economy’ - implications of the quantity theory of credit for the prevention and resolution of banking and debt crises
The financial crisis has triggered a new consensus among economists that it is necessary to include a banking sector in macroeconomic models. It is also necessary for the finance and banking literature to consider how best to incorporate systemic, macroeconomic feedbacks into its modeling of financial intermediation. Thus a new research programme on the link between banking and the economy is needed. This special issue is devoted to this theme. In this paper an overview of the issues and problems in the economics and finance literature is presented, and a concrete, simple approach is identified of how to incorporate banks into a macroeconomic model that solves many of these issues. The model distinguishes between the type of credit that boosts GDP and credit that is associated with asset prices and banking crises. The model is consistent with the empirical record. Some applications are discussed, namely the prediction and prevention of banking crises, implications for fiscal policy, and a solution to the European sovereign debt crisis that stimulates growth while avoiding the corner solutions of euro exit or fiscal union
