2nd RISE Workshop: Understanding Macroeconomic Regimes and their implications for modelling and policymaking

In the wake of an evolving macroeconomic landscape marked by events such as the global financial crisis, European sovereign debt crisis, Covid19 pandemic, geo-political risks, and climate change, a new macroeconomic regime is emerging. As challenges like potential inflation, government debt, limited fiscal space, productivity slowdown, green transition, and capital imbalances emerge, there is a compelling need for a collective re-evaluation of macroeconomic models by both academics and policymakers.

The 2nd RISE Workshop, to be held in Pretoria (South Africa) on July 25-26, 2024, is dedicated to addressing these critical issues. It brings together researchers that will enhance our understanding of the sources and the macroeconomic consequences of regime switches as well as the actions that policymakers can undertake to improve the stability and resilience of the economic system.
