When revenue subsidies are applied in the Rotemberg model, the inflation-output dynamics and welfare loss functions are identical to those of the Calvo model. However, with employment subsidies, the two models differ. Aligning the inflation-output dynamics causes differences in the welfare loss function. These findings underscore the importance of model selection in the design of monetary policy, influencing the trade-off between inflation and output gap stabilisation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11468,"journal":{"name":"Economics Letters","volume":"249 ","pages":"Article 112244"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143511257","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We find a strong heterogeneous reaction across sectors.

Moreover, there is no statistical evidence of demand displacement or increased transaction volumes in adjacent areas, while the investor ban is associated with a 25.6 % decline in transaction volumes within the regulated zone. These findings suggest that price spillover effects outweigh displacement effects in heated housing markets, indicating that place-based policies can effectively curb real estate price increases despite concerns about investment demand displacement.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11468,"journal":{"name":"Economics Letters","volume":"248 ","pages":"Article 112242"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143463896","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
