FESSUD workshop – Mapping the Future of Finance
25 May 2016 @ 8 h 30 min - 19 h 00 min
How will finance, the financial sector and relevant policies evolve in the 15 to 20 years to come? To address this question, this FESSUD workshop will bring together finance experts from universities, the Bank of England, the European Investment Bank and the US Senate.
In a first phase, academics will introduce some of the main results of the European project FESSUD, with a particular emphasis on the foresight findings about the evolution of finance, the financial sector and relevant policies over a 15 to 20 year time horizon. This will lead to debates on how finance and financial markets and institutions can better serve the economy, society and natural environment. The research will be put in perspective by key actors thanks to the participation of policy makers and financial market stakeholders: Bank of England, European Investment Bank, European Central Bank, European Commission DG Economics and Finance, US Senate and the OECD.
