Conference Date and Location: 25-26 January 2024, Pretoria, South Africa
Background and Objective: Macroeconomic policy in emerging markets is facing multiple challenges in an uncertain global environment, increasing world interest rates and a limited fiscal space after unprecedented global shocks. At the same time emerging markets are becoming increasingly important both as determinants of the world economic outlook and centers of policy innovation and experimentation.
The 2nd ERSA/CEPR Workshop on Macroeconomic Policy in Emerging Markets is dedicated to exploring and discussing research on the challenges to macroeconomic policy in emerging markets, the policy options available to them and the instruments to be developed to inform and monitor policy.
We invite submissions on a broad range of topics related to macroeconomic policies in emerging markets. Among others, themes of interest are:
- Conventional and unconventional monetary policy
- Fiscal policy
- Fiscal and Monetary policy coordination
- Spillovers from advanced economies
- Spillovers to advanced economies
- Debt sustainability and consolidation
- Capital flow management policies
- Macro-prudential policies
- New data and new methods for policy making in emerging markets
- Exchange rate determination
- Policy credibility
- Distributional effects of policymaking
