Outline of Final Research Achievements

I consider causes and an optimal policy under the ``liquidity trap", in which a nominal interest rate reaches a zero lower bound. I find that a probability of falling into the trap rises with a financial friction. I also find that central banks should stabilize output more strongly in an endogenous growth model.
Moreover, I find that the macroeconomic model with an foreign exchange market microstructure is needed for studies on the liquidity trap.
