The notes also discuss the potential financial/fiscal risks related to QE through its effects on the allocation of consumption and savings, in the context of an aging population. The notes prepared by key monetary experts were requested by the Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs (ECON) of the European Parliament as an input for the June 2015 session of the Monetary Dialogue between the members of the ECON Committee and the President of the ECB. The Analysis was publicly made available in the summer of 2016. |
