In the present turbulent macroeconomic environment amidst multiple crises it is key to properly characterize macroeconomic shocks and arising policy challenges for fiscal and monetary authorities. This workshop aims at discussing topical issues for the transmission of macroeconomic shocks through various channels – e.g., financial markets, expectations, or debt sustainability – and the role of fiscal and monetary authorities in smoothing the business cycle. Papers presented at the workshop are expected to make innovative use of macro and / or micro data.
