ESM-成人头条.lu seminars
The European Stability Mechanism (ESM) and the Department of Finance organize a joint seminar series since 2019. The ESM is the permanent stability mechanism of the euro area and provides, where needed, financial assistance to euro area Member States. The ESM and the Department of Finance have developed many shared topics of interest in the field of macro-finance and financial economics. The goal of this seminar series is to invite prominent researchers in those fields to present their work in Luxembourg and to meet local researchers. The seminars are held over lunchtime and are open to the public. The location alternates between the ESM and the Department of Finance.
To be informed about upcoming seminars, please sign up to our . Note: For organisational purposes, your registration information (name and affiliation) will be shared between the ESM and the Department of Finance. The Department of Finance will not share your contact information with any other third party.
