Understand how economies connect across borders. Get a strong grounding in international macroeconomics' core ideas, then build and solve quantitative open-economy models with hands-on solution methods. Along the way, you’ll see how differences across countries in household income and wealth inequality shape global linkages and outcomes.
Topics covered:
- Booms and Busts around the World
- Capital Flows and Crises in Emerging Markets
- Heterogeneous-Agent Models in Open Economies
- Inequality, Geopolitical Shocks, and International Capital Flows
Who is the Course for?
Ideal for graduate economics students, as well as professionals in central banks and international institutions engaged in research. Perfect for those aiming to understand international linkages in booms, busts, and crises - as well as the international implications of inequality. You’ll leave with essential tools to analyse these dynamics and to contribute to research and policy in international macroeconomics.
Topics Covered
- Booms and Busts around the World
- Capital Flows and Crises in Emerging Markets
