Monetary Policy in Extraordinary Times Prof. David Miles CEPR Lecture, London Business School Wednesday 23rdFebruary
Level of Output Relative to Pre-Crisis Trend During Past Recessions (a) Yearsfrom start of the recession 100 Index based in year of peak level of output 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 98 96 94 2008 1990 92 1979 1929 90 1973 88 (a) I use GDP and trend growth estimates from Hills, Thomas and Dimsdale ( Bank of England Quarterly Bulletin 2010) to create this chart. The authors use a Hodrick-Prescott filter to separate the trend and the cyclical components of real GDP growth. I assume that their trend growth estimate at the start of each recession would have prevailed during the following seven years had the recession not occurred. The chart shows deviations of actual GDP from this projected trend growth. The dotted line for the latest recession uses the MPC s mean projection for output growth over the forecast horizon as reported in the February 2011 Inflation report. 2

The public sector, including the banks classified to the public sector, owns considerable amounts of illiquid assets, but these are not taken into account in the calculation of net debt.

Prior to 1970 published accounts understated the true level of banks' capital because they did not include hidden reserves. The solid line adjusts for this. 2009 observation is from H1. (b) Change in UK accounting standards. (c) International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) were adopted for the end-2005 accounts. The end-2004 accounts were also restated on an IFRS basis. The switch from UK GAAP to IFRS reduced the capital ratio of the UK banks in the sample by approximately 1 percentage point in 2004. 14
UK Banks Liquidity Ratio (a) (a) From 1968 the liquidity ratio is: Cash + Bank of England balances + money at call + eligible bills + UK gilts as a percentage of banks' total asset holdings. Pre-1968 the ratio is calculated as the liquid assets of the London Clearing Banks as a percentage of gross deposits. 15
