The region’s premier institution, Bank Indonesia Institute – Bank Indonesia, is pleased to host the 16th Bulletin of Monetary Economics and Banking (BMEB) International Conference and Call for Papers on “Synergy of Economic Policies and Innovations in Driving Momentum for Sustainable Global Economic Recovery in the Era of Digital Transformation” in collaboration with the Asia-Pacific Applied Economics Association (APAEA). This theme is relevant given the need to innovation in light of a period of sustained financial and economic stress due to the COVID-19 pandemic. As part of this innovation toward recovery, digital transformation is perceived as a panacea. This call for paper encourages papers that (a) evaluate and discuss the synergy between economic policies (both monetary and fiscal) in economic recovery, (b) examine the role of innovations including innovations to digital transformation in economic growth and development, and (c) examine and evaluate the relationship between innovation/economic policies in maintaining stability, sustaining growth, and promoting equitable welfare.

Synopsis and Subject Coverage The spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak has had a significant negative effect on the global economy. In response to the pandemic, most of the Asian countries have adopted appropriate monetary and fiscal policies to mitigate the effects of the pandemic. Similarly, the pandemic has impacted the green economy: for instance, with the stagnation of international travel (tourism) and reduction in global productions, risks to the environment have declined. As tourism and global economies recover, as new fiscal and monetary policies stimulate growth, the implications of such policies on green economy status will need to be evaluated. This special issue of BMEB will not only include papers that examine the effectiveness of fiscal and monetary policies on economic recovery but also on how those policies are likely to impact the green economy profile of countries and the Asian region.
