Inhalt |
Central banking and monetary policy are pivotal elements at the heart of financial systems worldwide. This seminar, "Advanced Perspectives on Central Banking and Monetary Policy," offers a comprehensive exploration of the diverse and dynamic roles that central banks play in shaping economic landscapes. We will examine the theoretical underpinnings and practical challenges of monetary strategies in various contexts, including established economies and emerging markets.
Throughout this course, students will engage with a variety of subjects, such as the complexities of monetary unions (in particular the Euro Area), central bank communication, forward guidance, and digital currencies. The seminar will also cover challenges and advanced methodologies in evaluating the impacts of monetary policy. This broad approach allows for a flexible exploration of current trends and methodologies in the field of monetary policy.
Students will read, present, and discuss recent scholarly articles and case studies that provide comprehensive insights into current and critical issues in central banking and monetary policy. This approach will equip students with a nuanced understanding of how central banks operate within complex and rapidly changing economic environments. |
