Getting back on track: macroeconomic policy lessons from the financial crisis

This article reviews the role of monetary and fiscal policy in the financial crisis and draws lessons for future macroeconomic policy.

This trend was most pronounced in the United States, but it also had a profound influence on the global financial system as a whole.
