2017 MNB/CEPR/ESRB Workshop on Macroprudential Policy: Designing the Tools and Assessing their Effectiveness

Highlights

  • When: 27-28 April 2017
  • Where: Magyar Nemzeti Bank, Budapest, Hungary

The Magyar Nemzeti Bank (MNB), in collaboration with the Centre for Economic Policy Research (CEPR) and the European Systemic Risk Board (ESRB), will hold its 14th Workshop on Macroeconomic Policy Research in Budapest on 27-28 April 2017. The workshop aims to bring together central bankers and researchers with an interest in macroprudential policy. There will be a keynote address by Javier Suarez (CEMFI).

There are high hopes for the new macroprudential policy framework, but the lack of historical experience with macroprudential instruments poses challenges for policymakers. The effective application of these tools requires a deep understanding of their potential and limitations. The conference aims to facilitate a dialogue between policymakers and researchers in order to deepen our collective understanding of the effectiveness of macroprudential policy.
