Welcome to this free event: International macroeconomics models often take a simplified view of capital markets, assuming that textbook relationships such as the uncovered interest parity and the expectations hypothesis of the term structure hold. A large literature in empirical finance shows, however, that these relationships fail to hold because of strongly time-varying risk premia. This lecture will present a model that integrates frictional capital markets in international macroeconomics and will describe the model’s rich implications for monetary policy, exchange-rate policy and international capital flows.Biography
