- Abstract
Asset inflation and credit expansion are considered as the instruments for implementation of long-term optimum for an overlapping generations model. We show the role of credit in supporting a high rate of asset price inflation, which outpaces the growth rate of GDP and provides optimal wealth allocation between generations. A link between optimal asset inflation and optimal monetary policy is demonstrated.
