The rapidly evolving landscape of global governance, shaped by the interconnected realms of finance and society, offers a complex array of challenges and opportunities that warrant thorough exploration. This workshop will delve into the intricate dynamics of governance within the globalised economy, examining how financial systems, regulatory frameworks, and societal impacts interact.
The event will serve as a platform for scholars to exchange insights, present research findings, and collaborate on key challenges at the intersection of finance, society, and law that influence corporate behavior and governance structures. This workshop will focus on the evolving role of international institutions in governance, the impact of technology on finance both globally and locally, the challenges of regulatory harmonisation in a connected world, and the societal effects of economic policies. Through a transatlantic lens, the workshop aims to tackle the complexities of governance and finance in an age characterised by rapid technological change, shifting geopolitical dynamics, and increasing demands for equity and sustainability.
