| Program for Resident Scholars |
| The Research and Statistics Group's Program for Resident Scholars brings to the Bank, for at least six months, outstanding researchers with an international reputation. |
|
 Resident scholars are selected from the top academic and policy institutions in fields relating to the Bank’s broad policy interests. The scholars pursue their own research while providing intellectual leadership by advising and collaborating with our staff of more than fifty economists. They present their own work at Research Group seminars and attend presentations by others.
The resident scholars also work closely with the director of research, and have the opportunity to contribute to the Bank's main policymaking discussions on topics such as monetary policy and macroeconomics, international economics, banking supervision and regulation, capital markets, financial stability, and applied microeconomics with an emphasis on regional and national issues. The program complements our Visiting Scholars Program, in which economists from major research institutions are invited to present their own work and make themselves available to discuss our staff's current research. |
