We have a very exciting program for this year’s meeting. There are 432 papers in 108 sessions covering all areas of macroeconomics. Our plenary speakers are Susan Athey (Harvard), Bob Hall (Stanford), and Ellen McGrattan (Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis). We set a new record with 1310 submissions, and because of space limitations a number of excellent papers did not make it onto the program. Under the guidance of our past presidents Tom Sargent, Ed Prescott, Dale Mortensen, Tom Cooley, Boyan Jovanovic, and David Levine, all of you have helped our meetings grow from the first one (Minneapolis, 1990) into the large and intellectually significant affair they are today. Putting together a meeting on such a large scale involves a lot of work. So, thanks go to the 41‐member program committee who selected the papers in a timely manner. A particular thanks go to our local organizers, Rui Castro and Francisco Ruge‐Murcia, who pulled this all together. Our officers, Ellen McGrattan (Treasurer) and Christian Zimmermann (Secretary) also played a key role. As you know, these meetings are costly endeavors. So, financial support from CIREQ, the University of Montreal, Tourism Montreal, and from our main sponsor, the Bank of Canada, is gratefully acknowledged. Have a good time! Enjoy the conference and Montreal.
