Inaugural conference of the ChaMP Research Network

Challenges for Monetary Policy Transmission in a Changing World (“ChaMP”)

Thursday, 25 and Friday, 26 April 2024

Frankfurt am Main

This conference marks the launch of the ChaMP Research Network, which focuses on challenges for monetary policy transmission, amid unprecedented shocks, structural changes and shifting inflation dynamics. It consists of researchers from the ECB and all EU national central banks. Its main goal is to develop research to understand further how these changes have affected the speed, strength, and heterogeneity of monetary policy transmission in the euro area and the European Union.
