摘要:We re-examine the empirical relevance of the cost channel of monetary policy (e.g.
Ravenna andWalsh, 2006), employing recently developed moment-conditions inference meth-
ods, including identi.cation-robust procedures. Using US data, our results suggest that the
cost channel e¤ect is poorly identi.ed and we are thus unable to corroborate the previous
results in the literature.
