The workshop provides a platform to discuss new developments in the field of empirical and applied macroeconomic modelling and aims at bringing together academic researchers and practitioners. We invite applied and theoretical papers dealing with time series, business cycles, mixed frequency modelling and forecasting. Papers that explicitly cover the linkage between macroeconomics and financial markets based on mixed frequency modelling are particularly welcome.

Each conference day is opened by an invited speaker followed by contributed papers and posters.

Keynote lectures are given by:

 Massimiliano Marcellino (Bocconi University)
John H. Rogers (Federal Reserve Board)
The workshop fee for participants is EUR 125 (reduced fee for PhD students EUR 90).
