International Macroeconomics Chair

Presentation

The International Macroeconomics Chair was created in September 2009 and is based at Paris School of Economics. It is the result of a partnership between the Banque de France and PSE. Sharing the same vision about scientific needs on international issues, these two organisations joint their efforts to build a chair with the objective of fostering the development of research on the financial & monetary international system, and in international Macroeconomics. This chair is co-directed by Tobias Broer (PSE, Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne University) and Olivier de Bandt (Banque de France).
