Seven years after the onset of a great recession, the United States and the European Union face continued headwinds, and their challenges reverberate throughout the global economy to affect the outlook in major emerging economies. A number of policy and political uncertainties confound efforts to project global growth over the next decade. This two day workshop will bring together leading scholars on the economics of key regions with an eye to weaving together a consistent view of the likely global economic outlook over the coming decade. It will explore regional dimensions of the global economic outlook and linkages between them.

The first morning will focus on monetary policies in major economies and the potential spillovers of those policies to the global economy. The first afternoon will explore developments in energy markets and the outlook for the European Union. The second day will begin with sessions on China and emerging markets, and the afternoon will focus on global productivity growth and the future of manufacturing.
