Quantile Policy Effects: An Application to U.S. Macroprudential Policy
分位数政策效应:美国宏观审慎政策应用
To assess the dynamic distributional impacts of macroeconomic policy, we propose quantile policy effects to quantify disparities between the quantiles of potential outcomes under different policies. We first identify quantile policy effects under the unconfoundedness assumption and propose an inverse probability weighting estimator. We then examine the asymptotic behavior of the proposed estimator in a time series framework and suggest a blockwise bootstrap method for…
