Abstract: In this paper, we explore the efficiency of the Leaning Against the Wind (LAW) policy within the New Keynesian framework with heterogeneous expectations. To do so, we introduce the financial sector into the benchmark model using the financial accelerator channel. We show that the LAW policy can be counterproductive because it creates an equilibrium that can coexist with the desirable equilibrium. A more stringent LAW policy reduces the stability region of the desirable equilibrium. However, in cases where the desirable equilibrium is unstable, the LAW policy can help reduce the amplitude of economic fluctuations.
