This intermediate-level unit studies the main macroeconomic models in use, keeping close contact with current macroeconomic events. The focus is on product, financial and labour markets in an open economy, examining their key features in short, medium and long run equilibrium. We study the link between macroeconomics and finance leading to a deep understanding of the drivers of bond, stock housing and exchange rate markets, as well as the sources of pathologies like financial crises and the emergence of cryptocurrencies. Monetary and fiscal policy design is analysed in depth, enabling students to evaluate current debates on macroeconomic policy in a real-world context.

Pre-requisite: ECON1021 or ECON110.
