Efektivita měnové politiky Evropské centrální banky v souvislosti s dluhovou krizí v eurozóně na konkrétním příkladu Irska

This thesis focuses on assessing the effectiveness of monetary policy, which was adopted by the European Central Bank in cooperation with the Irish Central Bank in order to overcome the debt crisis in Ireland. It provides a brief overview of the causes of the crisis in the country and focuses on the measures of monetary policy that was taken in addressing the debt crisis. The paper examines the initial targets of anti-crisis policy and their actual implementation. Increased attention has been paid to banking regulation, since insufficient regulation was the primary cause of the crisis that led Ireland into a situation of extreme budget deficit and the subsequent need for a bail-out. The paper points out that in 2014, the Irish economy has seen some growth and reduced the budget deficit as well as government debt, which confirms the effectiveness of certain implemented measures.
