The theme of this year’s conference is “The Global Economy: Looking Back, Moving Forward.” The conference will provide a forum for discussing innovative research on a wide range of topics relevant to the global economy and facilitate the exchange of views among researchers and policymakers.
This year’s conference will honor Maurice Obstfeld’s contributions to economic research and policy. Obstfeld is the preeminent scholar of international economics. Before joining the faculty at the University of California, Berkeley, he held appointments at Columbia University, the University of Pennsylvania, and Harvard University. During 2015-2018 he served as the Chief Economist of the IMF, and from 2014-2015 he was a Member of President Obama’s Council of Economic Advisors. The conference will bring together an outstanding array of economists and policymakers, many of whom were Obstfeld’s students, colleagues, or collaborators. Linda Goldberg (Federal Reserve Bank of New York) will deliver the Mundell-Fleming Lecture.
