The principal lag for monetary policy refers to the time it takes for changes in monetary policy to affect the economy. This lag can be divided into three phases: recognition lag, decision lag, and impact lag. The recognition lag is the time it takes for policymakers to realize there is an economic issue; the decision lag is the time taken to decide and implement a policy response; and the impact lag is the period it takes for the policy changes to influence economic activity. Overall, these delays can lead to challenges in effectively managing economic cycles.

Both fiscal and monetary policy can affect real GDP, due to time-lag in wage and price adjustments. In general, however, fiscal policy has a much more direct effect on real GDP.
An example of inside lag in monetary policy is the time it takes for central banks to recognize economic changes and respond accordingly. For instance, when a recession occurs, it may take several months or even longer for policymakers to gather and analyze data, assess the situation, and decide on appropriate actions such as adjusting interest rates. This delay can hinder the effectiveness of monetary policy in addressing economic downturns promptly.
