Application of the Taylor Rule to CNB Monetary Policy

Summary/Abstract: This paper tests the usability of the Taylor rule under the conditions of the Czech economy using a single-equation error correction model in the period from 2000 to the second quarter of 2019 and finds key variables for the CNB’s monetary policy setting. Other important monetary policy rules and their effect on the optimal monetary policy setting are also discussed. The starting point of the empirical part is a summary of the current monetary policy of the CNB and an analysis of its decision model. Since 2008, the new DSGE model g3 replaced the previous QPM model. At the end of the theoretical part, foreign experience and various approaches to the estimation of the Taylor rule are summarized. The CNB’s two-week repo rate is best described by the size of the output gap in the domestic economy, the ECB’s base refinancing rate, the change in the price level measured by the consumer price index and the previous value of the repo rate. The paper also analyses the relationship between the repo rate and the ECB’s basic refinancing rates, confirming the historically high dependence of domestic monetary policy on the ECB’s actions.
