Monetary policy in an era of more challenging supply conditions - Do the old principles still stand?
Speaker: Andréa M Maechler
Chair: Ricardo Reis
Place: Wolfson Theatre, Cheng Kin Ku Building, LSE
Hosted jointly with the School of Public Policy
Monetary policy is well equipped to address demand shocks. For many structural or supply side shocks the traditional answer was to look through and not allow second round effects to emerge. Is that the right answer when structural shifts, such as climate change or economic fragmentation, are expected to affect inflation over long horizons?
