Monetary Policy and Interest Rates - by Riccardo Rovelli & Ignazio Angeloni (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

An authoritative examination for top international policymakers and academics conducting monetary policy arising from a conference organised by the Banca d'Italia. The yield curve - the relation among market interest rates of different maturities - is a key benchmark for evaluating investment strategies in the global financial market. To a growing extent, central banks use it to evaluate, explain to the public and monitor the results of policy decisions.
