Money, Banking and Financial Markets

A Practical Guide to Macroeconomics for the Real World

Wie werden Verwaltungen fit für das digitale Zeitalter? Welche Voraussetzungen braucht die Zusammenarbeit zwischen Startups und Behörden und welche Rolle spielen Datenschutz, Finanzierung und Innovationskultur? Dieses Buch beleuchtet Herausforderungen und Chancen, die GovTech-Lösungen für eine resiliente und bürger:innenzentrierte Verwaltung mit sich bringen.Die Digitalisierung der öffentlichen Hand ist eine Jahrhundertaufgabe zwischen politischem Anspruch, komplexen Vergabeverfahren, gewachsenen IT-Strukturen und Fachkräftemangel. Innovationen scheitern oft an starren Prozessen, fehlender Finanzierung oder einer schwierigen Zusammenarbeit zwischen Verwaltung und Startups. Gleichzeitig steigen Erwartungen: Bürger:innen und Unternehmen fordern nutzerfreundliche Services, Mitarbeitende der Verwaltung brauchen Entlastung.Die Herausgeber:innen und zahlreiche Expert:innen aus Verwaltung, Wissenschaft und Praxis zeigen konkrete Lösungswege auf und verdeutlichen, dass GovTech weit mehr ist als Technologie: GovTech ist Ausdruck einer Haltung für einen zukunftsfähigen und krisenfesten Staat. In diesem Werk werden innovative Finanzierungs- und Beschaffungsmodelle, moderne IT-Architekturen und KI sowie Ansätze für Change, neue Führungsrollen und eine innovationsfreundliche Verwaltungskultur beleuchtet. Das Buch bietet praxisnahe Impulse für Führungskräfte, Unternehmer:innen und alle an der Schnittstelle von Politik, Verwaltung und Technologie, die die digitale Transformation strategisch und wirkungsvoll vorantreiben möchten.Der Inhalt<ul><li>GovTech verstehen (Begriffe, Akteure, Marktlogik)</li><li>Finanzierung (Förderlogiken, Pilotierung, Skalierung)</li><li>Vergabe &amp; Beschaffung (Vergabewege, Markterkundung, Modelle)</li><li>IT &amp; Sicherheit (Architekturen, Cloud, Souveränität, Datenschutz)</li><li>Organisation &amp; Kultur (Change, Rollen, Führung)</li><li>Best Practices und Erfolgsfaktoren</li><li>Ausblick und nächste Schritte</li></ul>

Wie digitale Innovation die öffentliche Verwaltung transformiert

GovTech für eine digitale Verwaltung

In a moment of interlocking and compounding crises that many commentators have aptly termed the "polycrisis," a leading economist offers a clear-eyed account of the underlying trends fueling the global instability and market mayhem that have come to characterize contemporary capitalism. 
 
Rampant inequality. Unchecked climate change. A global pandemic. And now, seething international divisions and the escalatory spiral of war and state violence. As the world moves toward the end of the 2020s, each of the pieces of this mosaic are becoming impossible to ignore, but how do they all fit together? And where is it all heading? 
 
To answer these questions, Marxist economist Michael Roberts draws on his forty-plus years of experience working in various financial institutions in the City of London to provide an empirically grounded and wide-ranging appraisal of the global situation. 
 
Roberts takes readers on a tour of the contemporary global economy, first by turning back to the Great Recession of 2008, and then offering a granular look at the economic priorities and contradictions of every region of the world. 
 
What emerges from this accounting of the polycrisis is the inescapable fact that capitalism's rapacious drive toward profit over and against any geopolitical boundaries or ecological limits threatens both humanity and the planet.&nbsp;

Depression, Polycrisis, and the World Economy in the 2020s

Time Is Running Out

Yale Program on Financial Stability Series

A critical examination of the Federal Reserve-told by the policymakers, economists, and observers who know it bestThe Federal Reserve is one of the most powerful institutions in the world-and one of the least understood. Drawing on twenty-one interviews with former governors, reserve bank presidents, staff economists, lawmakers, journalists, scholars, international central bankers, and investors, Fed Reckoning explores how the institution has navigated the defining upheavals of the modern era: the global financial crisis, the pandemic shock, the post-2021 inflation surge, and the banking turmoil of 2023. It traces the modern Federal Reserve from Volcker to Powell, examining its evolving approach to the dual mandate, financial stability, regulation and supervision, and communication.Just as importantly, these interviews reveal the people behind the institution: their judgments, disagreements, frustrations, and sense of mission. The result is a candid, deeply informed portrait of the Federal Reserve at a moment when its power is immense, its independence is under pressure, and its future path is far from certain-and essential reading for anyone seeking to understand how it makes and defends its decisions.

In The Four Paradigms in Economics: Theories, Concepts, and Analytical Tools, Kavous Ardalan demonstrates how these four paradigms explain any economics phenomenon differently, and therefore, together they provide a broader and deeper understanding of the economic phenomenon under consideration. The main theme of The Four Paradigms of Economics is that social theory can usefully be conceived in terms of these four key paradigms: functionalist, interpretive, radical humanist, and radical structuralist. The four paradigms are founded upon different assumptions about the nature of social science and society, and therefore, provide different explanations of any phenomenon. The book also looks at the major prevailing schools of thought in economics (Neo-Classical Economics, New Institutional Economics, Behavioral Economics, Austrian Economics, Post-Keynesian Economics, Institutional Economics, Social Economics, Radical Economics, and Marxist Economics) from the point of view of the four paradigms and locates them within the four-paradigm framework.

Theories, Concepts, and Analytical Tools

The Four Paradigms in Economics

A unified framework for understanding monetary policy, including recent unprecedented interventions by central banks Over the past two decades, monetary policy has been deployed in unprecedented ways, as central banks attempted to mitigate the adverse consequences of the 2007-2008 financial crisis, the COVID-19 global lockdown, and recent inflationary surges. In Monetary Economics and Policy, Pierpaolo Benigno offers a new way to understand the potency and effectiveness of monetary policy, presenting a unified modeling framework to analyze policy challenges posed by both paper and digital currency systems. He investigates current theoretical and policy controversies, drawing connections with historical themes in monetary economics. Benigno examines how central banks control the value of their currency amid competition from cryptocurrencies and private money-like securities; discusses the desirability of inflation targeting for macroeconomic stabilization; and explores theoretical grounds for the unconventional monetary policies seen in the recent period of zero nominal interest rates, including forward guidance, quantitative and credit easing, and helicopter money. He accompanies his analysis with an innovative visual representation of the New Keynesian model and inflation-targeting policies. Benigno's novel framework also allows the study of monetary policy normalization through quantitative tightening toward what has become the "new normal." He discusses the optimal provision of liquidity and the different roles of the government and financial intermediaries. Finally, he recounts historical controversies regarding the inflation-unemployment trade-off to understand the 2020s inflationary surge and delves into the causes and dynamics of hyperinflations, tracing them to the subtle, ambiguous linkages between monetary and fiscal policy and weak balance-sheet conditions for the central bank.

When ChatGPT was launched in November 2022, it captured the imagination of the public as well as leading companies, including the banking sector. But as people explored ChatGPT they soon found flaws. Lawyers and judges realised they had relied on non-existent case law. Others discovered that ChatGPT claimed to be the author of books and articles that existed long before it was created. Despite these 'hallucinations', banks remain attracted by the claim that AI can answer and ask questions, generate text, draft emails and translate natural language to code. Customer relations have in some cases been improved by using this technology, thus cutting costs and improving productivity and profits. Drawing on original, candid interviews with senior figures in the sector, How AI will revolutionise banking analyses the risks and challenges to banks and their regulators, as well as proposed solutions to issues such as hallucinations. It offers a comprehensive, up-to-date account of this exciting new technology and what it means for the world of finance.

And what it means for banks and their clients

How AI will revolutionise banking

Most of us have some investments in the form of pensions and other savings, but many are wary of investing directly in stocks and shares and fewer still understand the potential of the latest financial developments such as online trading platforms and AI. In Get Rich Slow international investor and prizewinning financial journalist Stephen Vines argues that if you inform yourself about the market and invest wisely, it's perfectly feasible for someone on an ordinary income to end up comfortably off. Aimed at ordinary investors who want to build wealth safely and steadily, this one-stop guide explains the jargon of investing from equities to derivatives and what to avoid in the form of excessive fees and the dangers of crypto. Showing you how to create a balanced portfolio of shares, bonds and other investments that can provide long-term wealth and weather the storms of financial turbulence, it creates a lifelong investment strategy that you can take into retirement and that can change as life changes.

The global market in money – housed in the offshore ‘shadow’ banking system – holds $217 trillion in financial assets and operates beyond the reach of any nation’s taxman. Asset managers, private equity firms, and pension and sovereign wealth funds scoop up the world’s savings for investment and manage them as they choose, unaccountable to politicians or the citizens who elect them. In this brilliant, accessible and incisive introduction to the murky world of glo­balized finance, Ann Pettifor links the activities of remote mobile financial markets to both the cost-of-living and climate crises. In an insane global casino, bankers are gambling with our future. When we foot the bill, no one but a few economists understands what has happened. The result is volatile, unpre­dictable and uncontrollable speculation in global commodities, pension, energy, and housing. Pettifor argues that societies and gov­ernments can take back control of the global financial system. We have done it before and can do it again. Indeed, it is imperative that we do so if we are to manage the twin threats of climate breakdown and biosphere collapse.

This book offers a balanced and rigorous analysis of international trade, exploring its substantial economic benefits while addressing the continuing reality of protectionist measures and trade disputes.It traces the evolution of trade theory from classical concepts like comparative advantage to contemporary models that incorporate economies of scale. The authors elucidate the economic benefits of free trade, including enhanced global efficiency, lower consumer prices, expanded product variety, and the cross-border flow of innovation. The book challenges the oversimplified view that protectionism is merely the dominance of concentrated interests over broader public interests. It systematically examines the comprehensive array of protectionist rationales. These range from domestic political pressures and the infant industry argument to national security concerns and countermeasures against unfair practices, such as dumping. The analysis also uncovers the deeper economic conditions that make protectionist measures appear rational.Providing an essential framework for explaining the persistence of trade disputes and reconciling the tensions between economic principles and political constraints, this book will appeal to academics and practitioners working in international trade and business management.

International Trade and Protectionism

The legal concepts that can fundamentally inform the economics of institutions In Legal Institutionalism, the eminent economist Geoffrey Hodgson proposes a new analytic approach for understanding modern economic institutions. Law helps to constitute some of the key features of modern market economies. Moreover, there is evidence that many people believe that obeying the law is important in itself, especially when it is deemed just, legitimate, and uncorrupt. Consequently, he argues, the role of law must be considered in analyses of the nature and dynamics of modern economic institutions and the motivations of economic agents. Hodgson lays out the basic approach and intellectual assumptions of legal institutionalism, citing such thinkers as Adam Smith and Karl Marx as well as insights from institutional economics, law, philosophy, psychology, and social theory. He considers how legal institutions emerged and evolved throughout history, stressing their importance in large-scale, complex economies. Informal rules and relations are vital as well, he explains, but these often rely on face-to-face contact, with smaller numbers of people. He shows that by examining relevant legal rules and relations alongside important informal rules, we can improve our understanding of the nature and role of property, contracts, money, and firms. Revisiting the socialist calculation debate on the feasibility of socialist planning, Hodgson argues that both sides paid insufficient attention to legal issues and underestimated the importance and inevitability of mixed economies. This milestone work by Hodgson has major implications for both theory and policy, suggesting new approaches to economic development, the theory of the firm, and countering the policy extremes of markets versus states.
