Prominent guests from the world of science and finance
The special guests of the 13th European Financial Congress included Prof. Timothy Snyder from Yale University, Prof. Charles Goodhart from the London School of Economics and Verena Ross, Chair of the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA).
Prof. Charles Goodhart, CBE, FBA is Emeritus Professor of Banking and Finance with the Financial Markets Group at the London School of Economics. His career alternated between academic work (Cambridge, 1963-65; LSE, 1967/68; again from 1985 until now) and work in the public sector, mainly at the Bank of England (Department of Economic Affairs, 1965/66; Bank of England, 1968-85; the Monetary Policy Committee, 1997-2000). Throughout his career, he worked as a specialist in economics, focusing on monetary policy and financial regulation issues, both as a research fellow and at the Bank of England. He says he has written more books and articles on financial stability and regulation in the last 50 or 60 years than any sane person would like to read. He is best known as the creator of Goodhart's Law which states, "When a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure". At the 13th EKF, he gave a short lecture and received the "EFC award for an economic visionary".
