Date: Wednesday, February 29, 2012. 12:00 PM.
Location: CISAC Conference Room Encina Hall, 2nd Floor
Part of The Europe Center's "European and Global Economic Crisis Series," with guest speaker Ronald I. McKinnon, William D. Eberle Professor of International Economics (former.) Professor McKinnon is an applied economist whose primary interests are international economics and economic development-with strong secondary interests in transitional economies and fiscal federalism. Understanding financial institutions in general, and monetary institutions in particular, is central to his teaching and research. His interests range from the proper regulation of banks and financial markets in poorer countries to the historical evolution of global and regional monetary systems. His books, numerous articles in professional journals, and op-eds in the financial press such as The Economist, The Financial Times, and The Wall Street Journal reflect this range of interests.
