The data used in this analysis are quarterly, spanning from 1997 to 2006. A Simple regression analysis Will be adopted to study the sectoral effects of monetary policy.
The findings show indicates negative impact monetary policy shocks towards all sectoral outputs that have been studied. Besides that, the findings also show the different response or sensitiveness of sectoral outputs on monetary policy shocks. The most responsive or sensitive sectors are manufacturing and finance, insurance, real estate, and business sectors. This situation occurs because these Sectors rely on bank loans for their working capital. The study also shows significant result on testing the hypothesis, Therefore, null hypothesis is rejected and this Study concluded that there is effect of monetary policy
