The Global Financial Crisis: How Did We Get Here? How Do We Get Out?
A conference which examines the measures governments in Asia and the U.S. are taking to address the global financial crisis.
What measures are governments in Asia and the U.S. taking to address economic challenges, and what are the implications and likely outcomes? To what extent are the challenges in the U.S. similar to those in Asia? What will be the shape of the new financial order at the national, regional, and global levels? And, what new opportunities are emerging as a result of the crisis? What strategies are credible in this time of uncertainty? These are some of the most urgent questions that some of the world's leading experts on US and Asian finance will address in this half-day conference.
