Training Catalog Session Details

Junior to mid-level officials in Bangladesh Bank who are involved in diagnosing the state of the macroeconomy and making projections.

A background in economics would be useful but not essential.

This course, presented by the IMF Institute for Capacity Development, is designed to strengthen participants' ability to comprehensively assess a country's macroeconomic situation, including the current state of the economy; the stance of fiscal and monetary policy; financial stability; exchange rate misalignments; vulnerabilities in the different sectors; and the medium-term outlook, especially the sustainability of public and external debt. The course emphasizes practical tools for use in day-to-day macroeconomic analysis and relies on case studies relevant to the region to illustrate how these tools are applied and how they can contribute to the policymaking process.
