Full Description

 

The value of daily foreign exchange trade is more than one hundred times the value of annual international trade transactions (goods and services). International financial markets generate capital flows that determine exchange rate movements and affect key macroeconomic variables in open economies, such as production, inflation and unemployment. The course addresses these topics by looking at empirical evidence and theoretical developments. 

By the end of the course students will be able to: 

·      Determine the link between variable in the financial markets, such as exchange rates, capital flows and economic fundamentals

·      Analyze how macroeconomic policies should be implemented when national financial markets are open

·      Identify the causes of speculative attacks and currency crises  

·      Analyze if the European Monetary Union is sustainable in the long run

·      Identify the distinctive features of the global capital market.
