PROJECTS:
WHEN MACRO MEETS MICRO: GLOBAL CHALLENGES AND HETEROGENEOUS RESPONSES IN NORWAY
Macro-micro will contribute to a better understanding of how the transition away from a petroleum-based economy may affect the efficiency of resource allocations. The project will study the drivers, spillovers and challenges resource rich economies face and discuss Norway’s challenges in connection with technological change, robotisation and digitalization. Macro-micro will analyse inequalities arising from business cycles and challenges to the sustainability of the welfare state and study the heterogeneous effects of macroeconomic policy in Norway, addressing business cycle conditions, the shift to a greener economy, and the management of the Government Pension Fund.
