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
Development of the euro financial “ecosystem” is dampened by the scarcity of euro-denominated liquid short-term safe instruments to serve as “near money” and high-quality collateral available to all. It will be argued that the ECB has the means and the mandate to eliminate this scarcity by issuing a large volume of its own debt certificates, thereby strengthening monetary transmission and stability. Issuing such “E-bills” would avoid many of the technical, economic, and political obstacles that stymied other proposals for common euro securities. However, the E-bills proposal may still face political resistance related to the balance of power between member states and common European institutions.
Speaker(s):
Daniel C. Hardy (St Antony’s College, Oxford)
Gabriele Giudice (European Commission)
Demos Ioannou (European Central Bank)
Chair: Tim Vlandas (St Antony’s College, Oxford)
