IMFS Working Lunch on the regulation of complex financial instruments on September 18

Many people argue that the failure to regulate complex financial instruments, especially derivatives, contributed significantly to the global financial crisis of 2007 and 2008.

On September 18, 2014 Professor Sean Griffith, Fordham University, New York, talks about:

"Substituted Compliance and Systemic Risk: How to Make a Global Market in Derivatives Regulation"

12:00 - 1:00 p.m., Goethe University, Casino building, Renate-von-Metzler-Saal (1.801)
