Overview
 Practice is ahead of theory; theory is ahead of
modelling ...
 Incorporating financial stability along with the price
stability, and a better management of global spill-overs
 The crisis stimulated research on incorpotating the
interactions between financial market imperfections and
the real economy in policy models.
 To understand the transmission of unconventional
policies empirically, future research should continue to
exploit the experience of central banks in the last five
years.
