December 9-11th, 2020
The Santiago Macro Conference is an annual workshop that aims at bringing together macroeconomists from Chile and abroad to achieve three goals. First, to be a venue to discuss the latest research on macro. Second, to give local researchers exposure and feedback from international researchers in order to improve their research. Finally, to promote intellectual exchange among domestic and international scholars.
The conference is organized by the Central Bank of Chile and the Economics Department of the Catholic University of Chile (PUC-Chile).
On 2020, the conference will be held remotely through Zoom on the afternoon of December 9th, and the morning of December 10-11th.
Besides local researchers, we will have the participation of international speakers such as Pete Klenow (Stanford University), Kim Ruhl (University of Wisconsin), Stephanie Schmitt-Grohe (Columbia University), Felix Tintelnot (University of Chicago), Michael Woodford (Columbia University), and Daniel Xu (Duke University).
