Another year, another big event for conaisseurs of financial regulation:  On October 31, the „Financial Stability Conference“ takes places again. It is organised by the „Financial Risk and Stability Network“.  Suffice it to say that speakers and participants are drawn from the top tier of European financial policymakers; German state secretary in the Ministry of Finance Jörg Kukies, Chair of the SSM’s Supervisory Board Danièle Nouy and Dennis Kelleher, President of Better Markets and reknown Wall Street critic to name just a few.

Topics discussed are highly relevant to the future of financial regulation in the Eurozone and in a wider context. Also, there is no participation fee and we’ll probably be present with a large group of young researchers and policymakers  this year (so please do get in touch with me should you be interested in meeting us).
