June 7th, 2010 | WCN General Meeting - "Women & Finance"
When: 19:30-21:00
Where:
Hilton am Stadtpark
Room Mahler
1030 Vienna
Registration: EuropeanPWN
Dear ladies,
Our Topic for this General Meeting is :
Women & Finance
Speaker : Dr. Helene Schuberth, OENB
In a report on reforms of the international monetary and financial system, the Stiglitz Commission concludes that “those who are affected by the failure of regulation … should have a large voice in any regulatory structure” (Stiglitz 2009). Stepping up input legitimacy by increasing female representation in financial governance is a necessary but not sufficient condition for financial markets to serve collective over private interests. Being able to join the exclusive male clubs of regulatory decision making bodies is often associated with subordinating women’s interests to the standards and norms of these epistemic communities by adhering to rigid disciplinary boundaries. Female representation only makes a difference if it comes with an alternative concept of financial order that takes into account the social needs of stakeholders rather than maximising the shareholder returns at the expense of wages and social values.
Helene Schuberth is senior advisor at the National Bank of Austria. In 2007 and 2008 she served as an economic policy adviser to the prime minister of Austria. She studied economics and social sciences at the University of Vienna and Harvard. Her research interests include monetary and fiscal policies, structural and labour market policies, financial governance and macroeconomic coordination, which is documented in several publications. In 2006, she coedited the book "The Political Economy of Financial Market Regulation: The Dynamics of Inclusion and Exclusion" (Edward Elgar)
We hope to see many of you, also for our networking cocktail ("What is the colour of your badge"?) starting at 18.30!
With best regards
