Abstract

Understanding of monetary transmission mechanisms is crucial to answering a broad range of questions.

This introduction to the symposium provides an overview of the main types of monetary transmission mechanisms found in the literature and a perspective on how the papers in the symposium relate to the overall literature and to each other.
