The authors suggest directions for the Fed going forward by drawing on principles from politics, history, and the market. They then explain how the Fed decided to establish a number of large and extraordinary new programs and offer practical suggestions on how to exit. They also recommend a number of policy reforms to address risk in the financial system and reduce the need for crisis-driven intervention. Although they offer a range of views, they concur on the need for both market-based mechanisms and regulatory reforms to keep the Fed on the road to good monetary policy in the future.
