On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
The Max Watson Memorial Lecture
Mr Regling will appear virtually
Mr Regling will reflect on the unfinished agenda for reinforcing the euro. The euro has been a strong second international currency to the dollar since its inception and has regained much of the influence lost in the global financial crisis. A multipolar currency world, with the euro and renminbi serving as coequal alternatives to the US dollar, would contribute importantly to global financial stability. But first, to buttress the euro. Europe needs to address the fragmentation in its financial markets and capital markets to enhance liquidity and deepen markets. The euro area also needs more economic risk-sharing, via cross-border investment and a common fiscal capacity backed by a safe asset. While progress has been striking in some areas during the pandemic, much remains to be done to achieve banking union and capital markets union.
