This topic aims to explain the impacts of behaviour and decision making on financial markets, both nationally and globally; and to use standard macroeconomic models to analyse the probable consequences of economic shocks and policy changes. It analyses the causes of, and policy responses to, the major macroeconomic policy problems likely to confront policymakers such as unemployment, inflation, public debt, terms of trade shocks, current account deficits, foreign debt and economic growth.

On completion of this topic, you should be able to:

identify the major macroeconomic policy objectives and their relationship to the business cycle;
use the IS-LM model to analyse the effects of changes in fiscal and monetary policies on interest rates, output and employment;
explain the term structure of interest rates and the inverse relationship between bond prices and interest rates;
analyse the implications of fiscal policy changes for government budgets, interest rates and the public debt;
use the Mundell-Fleming model to analyse the effects of fiscal and monetary policies in fixed and flexible exchange rate regimes;
use the AD-AS model to analyse the short-run and long-run consequences of policy changes and non-intervention;
and use the Philllips curve to analyse inflation.
