New episode of Global Shocks podcast

The third podcast in our new series, Global Shocks, offers a new perspective on the resilience of the global financial system. In this latest episode, Changing Global Orders Research Fellow Jan Eijking engages in a conversation with the economist Maurice Obstfeld about how the global financial system copes with the challenges of our turbulent world.

Maurice Obstfeld, former Chief Economist of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), brings a wealth of expertise to the discussion. He also worked as a member of US President Obama’s Council of Economic Advisers. Currently serving as a Senior Fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics and Professor of Economics Emeritus at the University of California, Berkeley, Obstfeld’s distinguished career spans decades of research and policymaking in international economics.

As a leading macroeconomist, Obstfeld has authored numerous publications on the international financial system, focusing particularly on its resilience to crises and shocks. In this episode, he offers unique and crucial perspectives on navigating the complexities of today’s interconnected global economy.
