Teaching at the Institute of Money and International Finance
The teaching focus at the Institute of Money and International Finance lies on the interdependencies of economical and fiscal problems in the context of monetary policy decisions.
This includes for example the functionality of international financial markets, central banks and monetary policy decisions, financial market regulation, financial crises and the analysis of exchange rate systems and currency areas.
The relevance of this topic is especially determined by the increased interdependencies of economical and fiscal questions in the context of global financial market integration and globalization. A consequence of this development is the increased risk of the occurance of financial crises and possible spillover effects. Due to this fact, new challenges for policy makers are arising, for example in the areas of monetary policy and banking and financial market regulation.
The students will learn, how this problems at the intersection of monetary macroeconomics between finance and macroeconomics can be analyzed by using theoretical and empirical methods. The development of implications for policy makers is one of the main aspects of the offered courses.
