Abstract: This paper examines how the member countries of a monetary union react to country-specific shocks and to shocks from the rest of the world, using supply-side policies. We develop a three-country model in which countries show different preferences regarding objectives, and face asymmetric disturbances. Two of the countries form a monetary union where an independent central bank controls monetary policy, and supply policies are determined by the authorities at the national level. In this framework, we analyse in strategic terms how the authorities can deal with monetary, real and supply shocks, and discuss the welfare aspects of the optimal soluction and the extent to which a coordinated supply-side policy may be useful to deal with those shocks.
