We suppose a two-step production process that is associated with vertical trade. Prices of final consumption goods are sticky and pass-through can be incomplete. Monetary authorities should respond to both home and foreign shocks in this set-up.Which simple, i.e. non-optimal, targeting rule best supports the welfare maximizing policy hinges critically on the degree of the cross-country interdependence in production and the relative importance of productivity and cost-push shocks. We argue that the relative volatility of productivity and cost-push shocks determines whether the monetary authority should follow a price targeting rulewhereas the degree of vertical integration determines which simple price targeting rule (producer or consumer price index targeting) is best.}, language = {en} } @incollection{Berger, author = {Berger, Wolfram}, title = {Effektivit{\"a}t und Effizienz von (makro{\"o}konomischer) Wirtschaftspolitik auf globalisierten M{\"a}rkten}, series = {Gr{\"u}ndung, Innovation und Transformation: Wirtschaftswissenschaften an der BTU Cottbus: Ehrenkolloquien f{\"u}r Prof. Dr. habil.
