One of the most anticipated moments of the conference was the keynote address delivered by Nobel laureate Thomas Sargent<\/span>. In his presentation titled “Fiscal Consequences of the US War on COVID,” Professor Sargent traced the evolution of US fiscal and monetary policy from the 19th to the 21st century. He noted that such crises like the long-term impact of wars on fiscal and monetary policy, often lead to fiscal deficits, significant price volatility, and enduring institutional changes. Furthermore, he discussed the complex interactions between fiscal, monetary, and tax policies, particularly emphasizing the role of “game theory” in shaping policymaker decisions. He underscored the importance of “budget constraints,” “coordination between monetary and fiscal policies,” and “power distribution” in managing these challenges.<\/p>\n

Other notable presentations covered a broad range of topics and fields within economics. These included research on the impact of multinational corporations on technology development and innovation, investigations into the reallocation and pricing of illiquid capital in financial markets, and explorations of the effects of low interest rates on inflation and debt rollover.<\/p>\n

The conference received a total of 211 high-quality paper contributions through an open call for submissions. Among these, eight were ultimately selected for inclusion, six of which were featured in a Special Issue of the IER. Leveraging this opportunity, PHBS and IER aim to deepen their collaboration, establishing an annual exchange platform that will ignite research vitality, promote high-level economic research, and contribute valuable insights to the advancement of economics in Asia<\/span> and across the globe.<\/p>\n
