2022 CEMLA-FRBNY-ECB Conference
Monetary Policy Challenges on the Way Forward
Call for Papers
6 - 8 July 2022 – Mexico City (hybrid)
The Center for Latin American Monetary Studies (CEMLA), the European Central Bank (ECB), and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (FRBNY) are organizing a Conference on Monetary Policy Challenges on the Way Forward, with emphasis on monetary policy in Emerging Market Economies. As inflation has increased significantly in many countries, normalization will probably have to take place sooner than expected, rather than awaiting the reversal of diverse supply shocks that have disrupted value chains and labor markets, among others.
Thus, the main purpose of the conference is to stimulate the discussion on: 1) monetary policy strategy, implementation and transmission under heightened uncertainty and persisting supply shocks after the initial COVID shock; 2) spillovers from Advanced Economies’ monetary policies; 3) interactions between monetary policy and other policies on the way forward in the pandemic; and 4) implications of digital currencies for monetary policy implementation and its transmission channels. Theoretical and policy papers submissions addressing these and related issues are encouraged.
Papers accepted for presentation will be followed by a discussion from another speaker within the session. Accepted papers, as well as presentations and discussions, will be posted on the Conference website to facilitate the discussion among participants.
Keynote Speakers
(One or two more Keynote Speakers will be announced)
Venue
If pandemic conditions permit, the conference will be held in Mexico City in a hybrid format (both, in-person and digitally); otherwise, the conference will be held digitally. There is no registration fee. However, participants are expected to pay their expenses for travel and accommodation.
Conference Special Issue
A special issue of the Latin American Journal of Central Banking (LAJCB) will include selected papers presented at the conference. Authors who wish their paper to be considered for the Special Issue, should clearly indicate this in their conference submission.
