Inflation and Fiscal Policy Coordination Advanced Training Course

Introduction

The Inflation and Fiscal Policy Coordination Advanced Training Course is designed to give professionals a deep understanding of how fiscal policy interacts with inflationary dynamics and monetary policy frameworks. By exploring fiscal deficits, public spending, taxation, and debt management, the program emphasizes the importance of well-aligned fiscal strategies in achieving price stability and sustainable growth. Participants will learn analytical techniques, global best practices, and policy tools that ensure effective coordination between fiscal authorities and central banks.

This training equips participants with practical insights into fiscal-monetary coordination, institutional frameworks, and case studies that illustrate successes and failures. By the end of the course, participants will gain the skills to design and implement coordinated policies that balance inflation control with fiscal sustainability and economic resilience.
