III. New Policy Mix as the Response
22
The Three Phases of the Monetary Policy since the Collapse
of Lehman Brothers
• Phase-1: Full liquidity support (after the collapse of Lehman
Brothers, September 2008)
• Phase-2: Exit Strategy (April 2010)
• Phase-3: New Policy Mix (since November 2010)
-
A lower policy rate,
-
Wider interest rate corridor and
-
Higher reserve requirements

Risk Scenarios
Scenario 1
• In case global economic problems intensify and contribute to stronger capital flows, a
policy mix of low policy rate, high RRR and wider interest rate corridor may be
implemented for a long period. If this scenario leads to weaker domestic demand, it may
require an easing in all instruments.
Scenario 2
• If the global economy faces a faster-than-expected recovery, global inflation may
increase and thus trigger a tightening in the monetary policies of developed economies.
• Materialization of such a scenario would mean higher global interest rates and demanddriven domestic inflation, and thus necessitate a tightening by using both policy rates
and reserve requirements.
Scenario 3
• The increases in commodity prices, if they persist, exert risks regarding general pricing
behavior, given the strong pace of domestic demand.
• Should such a risk materialize and hamper the attainment of the medium-term inflation
targets, there may be stronger tightening than envisaged in the baseline scenario.
• Higher commodity prices may worsen the current account balance.
• Therefore, the policy mix may vary depending on the developments regarding external
demand, capital flows, and the outlook for credit growth.
