You have been appointed by an international liquidity provision agency to recommend an economic policy for the four nation states ( i.e "White Paper").The policy must take into account exchange rate and monetary policy with the goal of stabilizing each country's financial markets and it will be the basis for the creation of an "International Agreement" on "Financial Markets Stability and Economic Development". What policy tools would you recommend and why? What if scientists 7have predicted with certainty that a global pandemic (virus) will occur within the next three months and that there will be waves over the next 5-years as the virus mutates and scientists work on finding an effective vaccine, how does this prediction affect your proposal(s)? Hint: This is a demanding problem but carefully "Think" about the intersection of Monetary Policy, Central Banking, Financial Institutions, International Finance, Forex Markets, Uncertainty, Financial crisis.
