Session 3 Monetary policy frameworks and strategies

This session reviews the extent to which the main monetary policy paradigms developed by academics and policy institutions prior to the crisis would need to be revised in the light of measures taken by central banks to address the crisis and the evidence on how the economy responded to these measures. In particular, this session will cover issues related to the relevance of the Neo-Fisherian perspective, the transmission mechanism, determinants of the natural rate, unconventional measures and heterogeneity.
