Abstract:
|
The financial crisis and deep and prolonged recession of 2007-2009 provoked an unprecedented policy response from the Federal Reserve and from Congress and the Administration. As the dust is settling and the economy improving, it is timely to assess three critical issues: 1) financial reform (the Dodd-Frank legislation) and its prospects for effectively addressing Too-Big-To-Fail; 2) Federal budget deficits and fiscal policy alternatives; and 3) longer-term economic prospects for the U.S. in light of these challenges, and of prospects for productivity growth.
