Call for Papers

The tradition of the Central Bank Macroeconomic Modeling Workshop (CBMMW) was started in 1998 by the Reserve Bank of New Zealand. Since then the Workshop was hosted by central banks of Sweden, Canada, the Netherlands, Japan, South Africa, Chile, Norway, Colombia, Israel, the Philippines, the ECB and the Federal Reserve. The 2012 CBMMW will be held in Warsaw, Poland, on September 13-14, 2012, hosted by the National Bank of Poland.
