U.S. Monetary Policy Forum
The US Monetary Policy Forum (USMPF) is an annual conference that brings academics, market economists and policymakers together to discuss U.S. monetary policy. A standing group of academic and private sector economists (the USMPF panelists) has rotating responsibility for producing a report on a critical medium-term issue confronting the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC). Reports for previous years are available online: 2007 | 2008.
This year's conference will be held in New York City on February 27, 2009. Learn more
