From 1978-1981 it was held at different locations but since 1981 it has been held in Jackson Hole, Wyoming and this year is no exception.<br \/>\nFrom 24<sup>th<\/sup> \u2013 26<sup>th<\/sup> August 2017, the most influential central bankers, finance ministers, academics and other financial participants from around the world will meet again to discuss the issues facing economies around the globe.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>About the Jackson Hole Economic Symposium<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\nThe key feature of the meeting is discussion that takes place between the participants. Because of the high-profile participants and the topics that are discussed in the event, there is a considerable interest in the symposium, however, to help foster the open discussion that is critical to the event, the attendance is very limited. The topic for the upcoming meeting is &#8220;Fostering a Dynamic Global Economy&#8221;.<br \/>\nThe event receives a large number of requests from media agencies worldwide, however, the press presence is also limited to a group that is selected to provide transparency to the symposium.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>Importance of the event<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\nThe symposium is closely followed by financial markets participants around the world and over the past decade it has attracted more attention, this is mainly because what has happened in the past. Some of the biggest monetary policies were initially revealed at the event, although they were not formally announced. During the event, any unexpected comment from any participants can influence the global financial markets. Here are some notable moments from Jackson Hole Symposium:<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>2005 \u2013 Raghuram Rajan (then professor at the University of Chicago and former governor of Reserve Bank of India) warned about risks that the financial system had absorbed throughout the years. Three years later, the US subprime mortgage crisis erupted into global financial crisis.<\/li>\n<li>2012 \u2013 Michael Woodford (macroeconomist and monetary theorist, Columbia University) presented where he said that Fed\u2019s stance on keeping its main interest rate near zero until a certain time would reflect pessimism about the speed of the economy\u2019s recovery. Later that year, the Fed announced it would keep rates near zero until unemployment fell to 6.50% and inflation did not climb above 2.50%.<\/li>\n<li>2014 \u2013 Mario Draghi (ECB president) hinted that the ECB was edging closer to embarking on its QE path. During the event, Mario Draghi said that ECB could use \u2018all the available instruments\u2019. His announcement came just two months after ECB introduced negative deposit rates in the Eurozone, the financial markets rallied during his speech at the Jackson Hole.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\nThe symposium is a must watch financial market event and it is worth keeping an eye on the discussions and speeches during the event as we may see statements from some of the most influential people from around the world, including FED\u2019s Janet Yellen and ECB\u2019s Mario Draghi, to name a few which could create some volatility in the markets.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><strong>By: Klavs Valters<br \/>\n<\/strong>Wixad<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The annual Jackson Hole Economic Symposium sponsored by the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City has been held since 1978.
