The Optimal Policy Prescription Optimal monetary policy under cooperation, complete markets and producer currency pricing is identical to that in the baseline closed economy one-sector model with flexible wages (Woodford, 2003, Chapter 6). Foreign shocks are relevant to domestic policy only to the extent that they influence the domestic output gap and inflation. Crucial distinction between efficient and inefficient shocks: I
Efficient Shocks: Set GDP deflator inflation to zero to keep output gap closed at all times. Nominal and real exchange rates will fluctuate with these shocks and adjust international relative prices without creating any policy trade-offs.
I
Inefficient Shocks: Partially accommodate such shocks in the short run. The response of output gaps and inflation will be shaped by the nature of cross-border spillovers.

A Negative Home Productivity Shock Contraction in the supply of home goods will appreciate the terms of trade (↓ Tt ). I
Substitutes (σφ > 1): F
Fall in domestic production will reduce dis-utility of labour for domestic workers.
F
With improved terms of trade, domestic households can acquire more units of foreign goods, which are substitutes for the domestic one.
F
Incentive to strategically appreciate the currency to reap the benefits of foreign production.
I
Complements (σφ < 1): F
Utility will fall with a marginal decrease in domestic production, even when terms of trade worsens
F
Incentive to strategically depreciate the currency to make home goods relatively cheaper abroad.
In Nash equilibrium, both countries attempt to manipulate their terms of trade. It may be self-defeating if such an attempt is matched by the policy response of the other country. Simon P. Lloyd

Welfare Gains from Cooperation? Because of price dispersion and relative price misalignment, the Nash allocation is welfare dominated by price stability. BUT the observed difference between the Nash and cooperative allocations is small ⇒ in welfare terms, the gains from cooperation are close to zero. There exist special cases where there are no gains from cooperation: I
Corsetti and Pesenti (2005): Symmetric Cobb-Douglas Consumption Aggregator; Logarithmic Preferences; G = 0; Only Productivity Shocks.
I
When σφ = 1, there are no cross-border spillovers via the terms of trade on marginal costs with complete markets.
Obstfeld and Rogoff (2002): Under CM, cooperation does not generate appreciable welfare gains relative to optimal stabilisation pursued by independent policymakers. No overriding consensus in the debate over the gains from international policy coordination. Simon P. Lloyd
