Answer to Question 1

On the one hand, LLR enables the Fed to avoid panic and disturbance to proper functioning of financial markets. On the other hand, using the policy may cause problems of moral hazard.

Students should mention the importance of political will to repair the fundamental economic weaknesses of the country.
