Empirical Monetary Economics

About this event

10 December 2013 from 10:15 until 19:00

The purpose of this workshop is to bring together macroeconomists to discuss and promote topical empirical research on monetary economics. Both the financial crisis and the sovereign debt crisis raised important issues for the effectiveness of current monetary policies and for the conduct of future ones. They also call for a re-examination of appropriate approaches for analyzing these issues.
