Cass Dean's Lecture - Andy Haldane
"QE – The story so far"
In recent years, monetary policy has supported advanced economies around the world. In particular, central banks have expanded their balance sheets as a tool for loosening monetary policy (often known as ‘quantitative easing’ or ‘QE’). This talk reviews the evidence on the impact this policy has had on economic activity, and presents new empirical analysis on the aggregate macroeconomic impact of balance sheet expansions across time and countries.
Andrew G Haldane is the Chief Economist at the Bank of England. He is also Executive Director, Monetary Analysis, Research and Statistics. He is a member of the Bank’s Monetary Policy Committee. He also has responsibility for research and statistics across the Bank. Andrew has an Honorary Doctorate from the Open University, is Honorary Professor at University of Nottingham, a Visiting Fellow at Nuffield College, Oxford, a member of Economic Council of Royal Economic Society and Member of Research and Policy Committee at NESTA. Andrew is Chairman and co-founder of ‘Pro Bono Economics’, a charity which brokers economists into charitable projects.
Andrew has written extensively on domestic and international monetary and financial policy issues and has published over 150 articles and four books. In 2014, TIME magazine named him one of the 100 most influential people in the world.
