This dissertation consists of three chapters. The first chapter studies the repo market crash in 2008-2009, which was a catalyst for the Great Recession. I evaluate the quantitative importance of the following three factors in that crash: a drop in the price of residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS), the liquidity drying up caused by asymmetric information in the RMBS market, and the run by repo lenders induced by changes in the fundamentals. On the theoretical side, the main contribution is to construct a tractable and parsimonious model to integrate the RMBS market with asymmetric information and the repo market with strategic complementary lenders. The two markets are connected by buyers in the RMBS market who use RMBS as collateral for borrowing in the repo market. I characterize the stochastic equilibrium of the economy where the quality of RMBS follows a Markov process. With calibration and simulation, the model yields the following quantitative results. First, the liquidity drying up caused by asymmetric information plays a crucial role in every aspect of the repo market crash. It explains 30% of the increase in haircut, 13% of the drop in total repo outstanding, and a large part of the increase in repo spread. Second, throughout the crisis, the fundamental-based run significantly affects the repo rate but only has a small effect on the repo haircut. Third, in addition to the three factors, the general equilibrium effect generated from the interactions between the RMBS market and the repo market explains 33% of the drop in total repo outstanding. I discuss the policy implications of these findings. The second chapter, written jointly with Neil Wallace, studies the optimal currency provision when the replacement of worn currency is costly. In The Mechanism of Exchange, Jevons recommended that the government bear the cost of replacing worn gold coins with new coins instead of having the holders of worn coins bear the cost. We study the optima of a minimally interesting model: money is essential and indivisible so that physical depreciation is not neutral, and there are alternative ways of financing the costly replacement of worn currency. The optima contradict the Jevons proposal. People with worn currency bear a cost that makes them indifferent between getting a new unit and discarding the useless worn unit, a cost that exceeds the physical cost of replacement. The third chapter, jointly written with Guanliang Hu, Guoxuan Ma, and Neil Wallace, studies the conventional monetary policy in overlapping generation models. Conventional monetary policy involves actions by the monetary and fiscal authorities: the former sets a nominal interest rate and the latter sets lump-sum taxes to finance the implied flow of interest payments on government debt. We show that absent any other frictions the magnitude of the nominal interest rate give rise to asset substitution between government debt and capital--substitution which has both real and nominal effects.

The thesis consists of three essays on monetary economics. In particular, I focus on using modern monetary theory with explicit microfoundations to address issues in macroeconomics concerning the effects of inflation and the coexistence of multiple assets. The first essay is motivated by the observation that economies undergoing high inflation often experience a reduction of variety in the marketplace. Existing models study how inflation affects quantity, but few have studied how inflation affects variety. In a monetary model with explicit microfoundations, I analyze how inflation affects variety and quantity. I consider bargaining and price posting with directed search. I show that inflation reduces both quantity and variety under both pricing mechanisms. Quantitatively, the model implies that the total welfare cost of 10% inflation ranges from 4.77% to 8.4% under bargaining and is 1.52% under price posting. In the second essay, I study an economy in which money and credit coexist as means of payment and the settlement of credit requires money. The model extends recent developments in microfounded monetary theory to address the choice of payment methods and the effects of inflation. Whether a buyer uses money or credit depends on the fixed cost of credit and the inflation rate. Based on quantitative analysis, the model suggests that the relationship between inflation and credit exhibits an inverse U-shape which is broadly consistent with the evidence. Compared to an economy without credit, allowing credit as a means of payment affects the economy's money demand, welfare and the welfare cost of inflation. In modern monetary theory, money is viewed as a substitute for the record-keeping technology. In the third essay, my coauthor and I investigate whether one money constitutes a perfect substitute for the record-keeping technology in a quasi-linear environment, where private information and limited commitment are present. We adopt the mechanism design approach and solve a planner's problem subject to various constraints. The result is that when money is divisible, concealable and in variable supply, one money may not be sufficient to replace the record-keeping technology. We further show that two monies are a perfect substitute for the record-keeping technology.

This book provides a comprehensive overview, in the form of eight long essays, of the evolution of monetary theory over the three-quarters of century, from the time of Keynes to the present day. The essays are originally based on lecture notes from a graduate course on Advanced Monetary Economics offered at York University, Toronto, written in the style of academic papers. The essays are mathematical in method — but also take a historical perspective, tracing the evolution of monetary thought through the Keynesian model, the monetarist model, new classical model, etc, up to and including the neo-Wickesellian models of the early 21st century. The book will be an essential resource for both graduate and advanced undergraduate students in economics, as well as for individual researchers seeking basic information on the theoretical background of contemporary debates.
