Despite the rather short history of macroprudential policy in the EU, the knowledge and empirical evidence on its effectiveness and transmission is growing rapidly. This session will take stock of the experiences with macroprudential policies in recent years, providing perspectives from both the institutional and the academic angle. Speakers will share their views on the success of macroprudential policy in contributing to financial stability. A key topic in the discussion will be how the EU’s macroprudential framework could be improved to further enhance resilience of the financial system.
