Dijsselbloem-QandA-European-Union-and-Eurozone

The Ambassador Lecture Series presents to you Mr. Jeroen Dijsselbloem as our next speaker.

Mr. Dijsselbloem is currently:

  • Dutch Minister of Finance
  • President of the Eurogroup
  • Chairman of the European Stability Mechanism Board of Governors

In an interactive Q & A session, Mr. Dijsselbloem will, amongst others, address the challenges and opportunities of the EU in general, and of the Eurozone in particular, after a turbulent 2016 that still dealt with the aftershocks of the Eurocrisis, witnessed a successful Brexit referendum and the election of Donald Trump as US President. The discussion will also touch upon the direct ramifications of Brexit for the economic and political processes in the Netherlands.

The event is organised with the support of SCOPE Economics.
