Resum

In recent years, the connections between monetary policy and the challenges of inequality and climate crisis have been gaining prominence both in the economic literature and in the practice of monetary policy. This paper summarizes and examines the major current debates about the potential effects of monetary policy on income and wealth inequality through different channels, while assessing how these inequalities may affect the implementation of monetary policy. In relation to the climate crisis, the implications of environmental degradation and climate change on monetary policy are addressed, as well as the possibilities of monetary policy to favour environmental sustainability. Finally, taking into account the new sensitivities of central banks in the face of such challenges, different monetary policy actions that could contribute to sustainable inclusive growth within the framework of the 2030 Agenda are proposed.
