SUERF and De Nederlandsche Bank Conference: Forging a new future between the UK and the EU

Date: Wednesday, 8 January 2020
Venue: De Nederlandsche Bank, Westeinde 1, Amsterdam

Brexit marks an unprecedented event in European history and while the United Kingdom has often been portrayed as holding back Europe, the reality is, that in several key areas, the UK has been on the forefront, notably pushing for deregulation, flexibility and deeper market integration. Moreover, when it comes to finance, London has a long history as Europe’s main financial centre.

This conference aims to bring together thought leaders from policy making, academia and industry to discuss the economic implications of some of the challenges uncovered by Brexit and other recent events on both sides of the Channel.

The keynote speakers are Luis de Guindos (ECB), David Miles (Imperial College Business School), Andy Haldane (Bank of England) and Dirk Schoenmaker(RSM, Erasmus University Rotterdam).

Confirmed speakers: Iain Begg, London School of Economics; Lorenzo Bini Smaghi, Société Générale; Zsolt Darvas, Bruegel; Aerdt Houben, De Nederlandsche Bank; Heather Gibson, Bank of Greece; Charles Goodhart, LSE I SUERF Fellow; Joaquim Oliveira Martins, OECD; Richard Portes, London Business School; Anthony Venables, Oxford University; Guntram Wolff, Bruegel; Phil Wooldridge, BIS.
