Portfolio balance effects of the SNB's bond purchase program
This paper carries out an empirical investigation of the impact on bond spreads of the announcement, purchases and exit from the SNB's bond purchase program in 2009-2010. We find evidence in favor of a narrowing yield spread of covered bonds as a result of the program. The effect materialized in the days following the announcement of the SNB's intention to buy bonds issued by private sector...

Combining disaggregate forecasts for inflation: The SNB's ARIMA model
This study documents the SNB's ARIMA model based on disaggregated CPI data used to produce inflation forecasts over the short-term horizon, and evaluates its forecasting performance. Our findings suggest that the disaggregate ARIMA model for the Swiss CPI performed better than relevant benchmarks. In particular, estimating ARIMA models for individual CPI expenditure items and aggregating the...

Motivated by the search for instruments to contain future housing bubbles, we examine the impact of transaction taxes and capital gains taxes on residential house price growth. We exploit the variation in taxation across Swiss cantons, as well as within-canton changes in taxation over time. We relate these taxes to house price growth observed for 92 regions of the country during the period 1985 -...

It extends Woodford's (2010) analysis to a model with a richer financial markets structure, allowing for international trading in multiple assets and subject to financial intermediation costs. Two different forms of financial integration...

On financial risk and the safe haven characteristics of Swiss franc exchange rates
We analyse bilateral Swiss franc exchange rate returns in an asset pricing framework to evaluate the Swiss franc's safe haven characteristics. A "safe haven" currency is a currency that offers hedging value against global risk, both on average and in particular in crisis episodes. To explore these issues we estimate the relationship between exchange rate returns and risk factors in augmented UIP...

Commodity Price Shocks and the Business Cycle: Structural Evidence for the U.S.
This paper evaluates the relative importance of commodity price shocks in the U.S. business cycle. Therefore, we extend the standard set of business cycle shocks to include unexpected changes in commodity prices. The resulting SVAR shows that commodity price shocks are a very important driving force of macroeconomic fluctuations - second only to investment-specific technology shocks -...

Donne dirigenti: obiettivi invece di quote fisse!
Il tema della quote delle donne nel mondo del lavoro è di scottante attualità in Svizzera in Europa. Diversi rappresentanti politici ed organizzazioni chiedono l'introduzione di una percentuale femminile fissa per i Consigli d'Amministrazione delle imprese quotate in borsa. Con un tasso dell'11%, la Svizzera è in coda alla classifica europea, che denota una quota media del 15%.

Ökologische Steuerreform: Ein Risiko für die Schweizer Wirtschaft
Im Rahmen der zweiten Etappe der Energiestrategie 2050 plant der Bundesrat, eine ökologische Steuerreform durchzuführen. Die Schweiz weist bereits zahlreiche Steuern und Abgaben im Umweltbereich auf. Grösstenteils dienen sie allerdings fiskalischen Zielen. Eine wahre Lenkungsabgabe setzt hingegen Fiskalquotenneutralität voraus. Selbst bei...
