Chapter 1 investigates how households’ participation in the stock market, coupled to the existence of a capital-constrained banking sector, affects the transmission of monetary policy to the economy. Chapter 2 investigates the implications of temporal aggregation for the design of monetary policy in a New Keynesian macroeconomic framework with boundedly rational agents. Finally, Chapter 3 aims at modelling bank runs in a behavioural macroeconomic contextengBounded RationalityFinancial MacroeconomicsMonetary Policy330doctoralthesisurn:nbn:de:bvb:473-irb-586705
