The Conduct of Macroprudential Policy

Richard Barwell

Chapter Chapter 5 in Macroprudential Policy, 2013, pp 175-222 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The success of the macroprudential policy endeavour will hinge on the ability of policymakers to spot future crises coming before it is too late to act. The search for reliable indicators of a build-up of risk within the system is therefore of paramount importance. In this chapter we discuss some of the issues involved in identifying these canaries in the coalmine and summarize what policymakers believed, pre-crisis, about the set of indicators which could be trusted to alert them of looming catastrophes.
