Banking and Financial Regulation: The Bankers' New Clothes

Please join us for a luncheon discussion with Anat Admati, George G.C. Parker Professor of Finance and Economics, Stanford Graduate School of Business on "Banking and Financial Regulation: The Bankers' New Clothes." Author of "The Bankers' New Clothes: What's Wrong with Banking and What to Do about It," Professor Admati explains why the financial system remains much too fragile, distorted and dangerous, and why this situation is due to flawed policy and regulation. She outlines a path to reform, including simple steps that can be taken immediately, to improve the system within existing legal structures.

The discussion will be moderated by Thomas Coleman, Executive Director of the Center for Economic Policy, and Benjamin Keys, Assistant Professor at Chicago Harris.

This is part of the Harris Speakers on Economic Policy and Markets series hosted by the Center for Economic Policy. The Center aims to integrate the study of financial markets with public policy, and offers MPP students aCertificate in Economic Policy.
