XXVI Workshop in International Economics and Finance


The XXVI Workshop in International Economics and Finance will be held in Santiago de Chile on September 26th and 27th, 2024. The event will be hosted by the Central Bank of Chile and Universidad Andrés Bello.

The workshop is a unique event that brings together top researchers and policymakers from the North and the South to discuss recent theoretical and empirical advances in International Economics and Finance. The goal of the meeting is to gain a better understanding of the macroeconomic problems faced by Latin American countries and to encourage research on those subjects. We will discuss approximately ten academic papers in closed seminar-style sessions; some sessions of a less technical nature will be open to a broader audience. 


The papers to be presented in the academic sessions were selected by a program committee whose members include:

Alvaro Aguirre, Banco Central de Chile

João Ayres, Inter-American Development Bank

Andrés Neumeyer, Universidad Torcuato Di Tella

Francisca Sara-Zaror, Federal Reserve Board

Benjamín Villena-Roldán, Universidad Andrés Bello

Guillermo Vuletin, The World Bank

 

The workshop's organizers are Banco Central de Chile, Universidad Andrés Bello, Universidad Torcuato Di Tella, the World Bank’s LAC Chief Economist Office, and the Inter-American Development Bank’s Research Department, and the University of Chicago’s Becker-Friedman Institute. The workshop is an activity of LACEA’s International Macroeconomics and Finance Network.
