Public views wanted at experts' finance conference

THE public are invited to give their views on the global financial crisis at an international conference.

The fourth Critical Finance Studies Conference is being held at Essex University ’s Wivenhoe campus between August 15-17.

Bringing together academics from around the globe, the conference hopes to look at ethical financial reforms which could lead to the end of the boom or bust economy.

It is the first time the non-experts have been invited and it is hoped the two-hour open session, which starts at 3.30pm on Thursday August 17, will spark debate between academics, financiers and the general public.

Anyone interested in going should visit the conference website choosing the ‘CFS Panel and Reception’ option. The cost is £10 including a drinks reception afterwards.
