International Money and Finance - ECON303

This unit studies macroeconomic theory and policy in a global context. It develops standard open economy macroeconomic models including: the Mundell-Fleming model; Dornbusch's overshooting model; and baseline intertemporal models. Exchange rate determination models are also analysed. These models are used to understand important issues in international macroeconomics including: the exchange rate; the current account; international capital mobility; exchange rate regimes; monetary unions and monetary and fiscal policies in open economies. Empirical evidence and policy issues are discussed where appropriate, using examples from both Australia and the rest of the world.
