panel discussion: Challenging times for the US and EU - Where are the economic and monetary policies headed?

The Russian war of aggression on Ukraine triggered massive price increases. But even before that, there were high inflation risks due to the Corona pandemic and creeping deglobalization. How should governments and central banks respond now?

The phase of dis-flation, which lasted for almost two decades, has obviously come to an end. This poses enormous challenges for monetary and economic policies. What lessons can be learned from the intensive use of monetary policy after the financial crisis and during the pandemic, and how will governments and central banks act in the face of the new challenges? How are economic policies going to adapt and are they going to do so in time to stave off the worst repercussions of the current crises?
