Geldcast Update: research and monetary policy
Hardly any other policy area is as strongly influenced by research as monetary policy. But how openly central banks talk about the latest research results varies greatly. This is exemplified by last week’s research conference at the European Central Bank (ECB).
How do the central banks’ research conferences differ? One important difference is transparency: the ECB allows everyone to listen in on the debates, while the Swiss monetary policy elite always discuss behind closed doors. Why is that? And what are the reasons for maintaining a certain degree of non-transparency? Find out this and more in the latest Geldcast update.
