- Abstract
Nominal interest rate policy is one of the most fundamental financial regulation tools in the world nowadays and it plays a rather important role in the economic stability and development of society. What exactly are the effects of interest rate hikes, rate cuts and various central bank interest rate strategies on the real economy? Is their impact policy stable? Under what conditions is it stable? We construct a model containing four typical nominal interest rate strategies under the ideal assumption of an arbitrage free economy to study the differential equations of nominal interest rate and price dynamics. The relationship between the two is shown by mathematical and computer methods such as system stability analysis, changing the initial value to study the dynamic change of the model with numerical simulation and MATLAB graphing. The model reveals that the interest rate system is often unstable and the initial value of interest rate policy is extremely sensitive to prices, and interest rate cuts do not necessarily lead to deflation or inflation. Moreover, the actual price impact of interest rate policy is not only related to the target rate but also to the path of interest rate adjustment. This suggests that, in practice, it is essential to adjust interest rate policy flexibly according to socioeconomic conditions.
