This paper starts from the recent crisis and its lessons for understanding the causes of the disequilibria and fluctuations. The intention is to observe and inform the macroeconomic processes with a combined view on monetary policy. It endorses the main ideas expressed by the three equation model of the New Neo-Keynesian Synthesis, to which one loanable funds equation is added. In addition, it also emphasizes non-orthodox forms of central bank policies. This new four equation model is used to make the macroeconomic relationships clear in the short run for "normal» periods. Furthermore, it is a convenient starting point for studying economic and financial crises with a very strong indication of relevant anticipations and risks in the Austrian, Leijonhufvud or Minskyan traditions.
