Park Lane Mews Hotel, Mayfair | 7:00pm
Park Lane Mews Hotel, Mayfair | 7:00pm
In this time of economic turbulence, there is a popular perception that the financial crisis was caused by lack of regulation. A forum dedicated to this topic with distinguished economists was organized together with the Cato institute in London on 3 December 2008, featuring presentations by Tim Congdon, William Niskanen, and Andrei Illarionov. The event was attended by economists, shadow government advisors, heads of think-tanks, and others interested in deepening their understanding of the current financial situation. The presentation and question and answer session was followed by a dinner and discussion.
The Mercurius Society will continue to support efforts to identify principles for a forward agenda based on sound market policies.
