Efforts to control economic conditions in a country are called monetary policy. The main thing is to regulate the stability of the value of money and the amount of money circulating in the homeland of each country. This macro policy is expected to be able to respond to micro economic growth so that real economic growth will be realized. The economic success of a country is largely determined by the precise determination of monetary policy. This policy was created in response to the microeconomics which was then managed in a macro manner by policy makers. This policy making step must be in accordance with the sharia scenario so that the economic growth is expected to get a blessing so that falah is the ultimate goal of the economy as well as being realized as the policy is taken. A literature review was finally taken in order to find answers to this essential monetary policy concept. The final goal of the discussion of sharia economic policy is to maintain and maintain the stability of the country's economy.

As the Pakistani economy has stabilized over the last few years, the focus has turned towards restarting economic growth. This is a challenging task because of the structural problems faced by the economy as well as the global economic slowdown. This means that Pakistan’s policymakers must move beyond the traditional growth strategy of export led growth and think of ways of expanding the country’s manufacturing base. Keeping this in mind, the organizers of the Eleventh Annual Conference on the Management of the Pakistan Economy chose the topic of “Pakistan as a Regional Manufacturing Hub – Prospects and Challenges.” The objective of the conference was to provide academics and policy makers with new ideas on growth strategies in the context of a changing global environment.

The level of trust in the local currency in Russia is very low largely because of relatively high inflation. As a result, Bank of Russia during crisis times can not afford monetary policy loosening and has to fight devaluation expectations. To change the situation in the post-crisis period Russia needs to live through a continuous period of low inflation. Modified inflation targeting can help achieve such a result. However, it should be amended with institutional changes, particularly development of hedging instruments.

The paper presents an overview of studies of the effects of inflation targeting on long-term economic growth. We analyze the potential channels of influence, as well as modern empirical studies that test performance of these channels. We compare the effects of different variants of inflation targeting (strict and mixed). Based on the analysis recommendations on the choice of optimal (in terms of stimulating long-term growth) regime of monetary policy in developed and developing economies are formulated.

In this analytical review the author describes the main trends in the modern heterodox political economy as an alternative to mainstream economics. Historical specificity as well as the contradictory and uneven character of economic development are examined in detail. The author also discusses problems of class, gender and ethnic discrimination and their influence on economic growth. It is shown that there are tendencies to convergence of different theoretical perspectives and schools, common themes, topics of research and conceptual apparatus are being formed. The forces of integration and differentiation help establish new ideas and receive interesting scientific results in such fields as development economics, macroeconomics and international economics.

Russia’s entry into the top five economies of the world depends, among other things, on the development of the financial sector, being a necessary condition for the economic growth of a developed macroeconomic and macro-financial system. The financial sector represents a system of relationships for the effective collection and distribution of economic resources, their deployment according to public demand, reducing the risk of overproduction and overheating of the economy.Therefore, the subject of the research is the financial sector of the Russian economy.The purpose of the research was to formulate an approach to alleviating the risks of increasing financial costs in the real sector of the economy by reducing the impact of endogenous risks expressed as financial asset “bubbles” using the experience of developed countries in the monetary policy.The paper analyzes a macroeconomic model applied to the financial sector. It is established that the economic growth is determined by the growth and, more important, the qualitative development of the financial sector, which leads to two phenomena: overproduction in the real sector and an increase in asset prices in the financial sector, with a debt load in both the real and financial sectors. This results in decreasing the interest rate of the mega-regulator to near-zero values. In this case, since the mechanisms of the conventional monetary policy do not work, the unconventional monetary policy is used when the mega-regulator buys out derivative financial instruments from systemically important institutions. As a conclusion, given deflationally low rates, it is proposed that the megaregulator should issue its own derivative financial instruments and place them in the financial market.
