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
David Harrison will talk about his book Price and Financial Stability: Rethinking Financial Markets, to be published by Routledge Economics in 2018. David’s book focuses on the difference between real economy and financial markets, the role of expectations of the future and how uncertainty is addressed. It argues that instability is inherent in many modern financial markets, and therefore a new public policy good of promoting relative asset and financial price stability would be valuable, and might be achieved under a revived Bretton Woods global framework, with general IMF oversight and decentralised action by central banks, financial regulators and competition authorities in their respective jurisdictions and areas of responsibility.
