Template-Type: ReDIF-Paper 1.0 Title: Optimality of Stationary Asset Equilibria Under Real Stochastic Monetary Shocks Author-Name: Bernhard Eckwert Author-Postal: Author-Phone: Author-Homepage: Classification-JEL: Keywords: Inflation tax, monetary shocks, strong (weak) inefficiency, overlapping generations Abstract: In this paper we characterize the set of Pareto optimal asset equilibria in a stochastic OLG-framework when real monetary shocks impinge on the economy. We show that it is the strength rather than the mere presence of monetary disturbances that accounts for, if the market mechanism fails to achieve allocating effiency.
