2013 Asia Economic Policy Conference: Prospects for Asia and the Global Economy
Policymakers in advanced and emerging economies face challenges as they continue to recover from the recent global financial crisis. The conference discussed monetary policy spillovers from advanced to emerging markets, costs and benefits of foreign reserve accumulation, and desirability of interventions, restrictions on cross-border capital flows, and financial regulatory reforms to prevent future crises.
2011 Asia Economic Policy Conference: Asia’s Role in the Post-Crisis Global Economy
Policymakers in both advanced and emerging economies face an array of challenges in the current economic environment. How can monetary policy and macroprudential policy be coordinated to achieve the objectives of price and output stability in an environment vulnerable to disruptions in financial markets? What financial regulatory framework will best reduce the likelihood and costs of future crises? What are the relative merits of regional coordination in Asia in light of the lessons of the recent crisis? What are the prospects for global rebalancing of trade and capital flows, and what role might China play in these developments? The 2011 conference examined these issues.
