Comment from our editors:

The 20 minutes Keynote by Adam Tooze provides you with a concise overview of this unprecedented, multi-faceted crisis as well as the connection with the financial crisis of 2008. You will learn about how financial markets and the dollar-based international monetary system work during such a crisis. Importantly, they also take a good look at the historic rush of funding out of emerging markets. During the Panel Discussion and Q & A with attendees a number of other relevant topics are discussed.
