Description The paper introduces a partial New Keynesian Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (NK DSGE) model of the Czech economy. It is a closed economy model based on microeconomic foundations. The model consists of four representative agents. These are households (optimizing behavior contains habit formation in consumption), firms (forming a New Keynesian Phillips Curve as a result of Calvo style price policy), central bank (implementing monetary policy in accordance with a modified Taylor rule), and government (as an exogenous sector). For the estimation of the log linearized model is employed a Bayesian estimation technique. Estimated parameters are analyzed in a form of a description of their values and impulse response functions of a monetary policy shock. The model can be extended to a form of a two economy model (open economy model with endogenous foreign sector).
