International Linkages and Spill-overs Network (Intlink)

Against the background of rising real and financial globalisation, a top priority for central bankers is to improve our understanding of cross-border linkages and spillovers. This is particularly so given the clear pitfalls exhibited by existing economic models in the past and in the aftermath of the global financial crisis.

Objectives

Providing a forum for researchers in which they can share and compare their modelling tools, at regular meetings and special events;
Creating an easily accessible archive of relevant tools and data which may be useful for research purposes;
Pooling individual researchers’ expertise to address key questions of substance.

Events

3-5 July 2014: Euro Area Business Cycle Network Training School – “ International Dimensions of Optimal Monetary Policy”,(Giancarlo Corsetti) , University of Cambridge, Cambridge
3-4 October 2013: Joint ECB/Central Bank of the Republic of Turkey conference – “Modelling International Linkages and Spillovers”, Izmir, Turkey
