Course content
Globalisation affects the effectiveness of macroeconomic policy instruments. Small open economics with free mobility of capital are strongly affected by international conditions. The foreign exchange market has a large impact on domestic financial markets and the possibilities for macroeconomic policy. New institutional arrangements are developed as response to the new challenges, as for example independent central banks and a common currency (EU). The course includes different topics to illustrate monetary and fiscal policy in small open economies.
