Synopsis

This informative book discusses the evolution of monetary policy, particularly since the subprime crisis. The contributors analyse diverse examples of the implementation of monetary policies across a range of countries, from those with major central banks such as Canada and Switzerland to developing economies such as Brazil and Nigeria, exploring how the practical workings of these measures can vary.

The authors examine the different instruments that can be used to control base interest rates, such as open market operations, reserve requirements and remuneration and rediscount operations. Chapters delve into 11 different case studies, which include monetary policy implementations in China, a reconstruction of the monetary policy framework in Argentina during COVID-19 and an overview of the instruments and procedures used by the European Central Bank. This comprehensive book also provides an overview of the various challenges that can arise in the process of implementing novel strategies.

Students and scholars of financial economics and regulation, political economy and money and banking will greatly benefit from this book. With its theoretical insights, it is also a crucial resource for academics in post-Keynesian economics, as well as practitioners in central banking and the financial press.
