THE ROLE OF MONETARY POLICY IN CONTROLLING ON INFLATION RATE IN IRAQ FOR THE PERIOD (2004 - 2020)

Year 2021, Volume: 7 Issue: 2, 89 - 102, 29.06.2021

Abstract

This paper demonstrated the role of monetary policy in controlling the inflation rate in Iraq. For this purpose, a modeling technique of the Autoregressive Distributed Lagged (ARDL) model has been used, and Monthly data has been collected for the period (31/12/2004 to 31/7/2020). Hence, the result of the unit root test for stationary implies that the inflation rate is stationary at the level, and other variables are stationary at the first difference. However, the result of the Johansen Cointegration Test reveals the relationships between inflation rate and all variables in the long run. Moreover, the Granger causality result shows two-direction causality between narrow money supply and exchange rate granger causes inflation rate. Unidirectional granger causality between inflation rate granger causes board money supply and interest rate. Finally, the outcome of the (ARDL) model reveals that the money supply and exchange rate are significant and positively related to inflation. The implication is that an increase in the money supply and exchange rate leads to high inflation in Iraq. The interest rate has a significant and contradictory relationship with the interest rate and inflation rate in Iraq. It indicates that an increase in the interest rate leads to a decrease inflation rate in Iraq.
