Sovereign Debt and Financial Crises

This conference was held to promote the findings of the "Sovereign Debt and Financial Crises" project, which held a research meeting in October 2013. The conference began with a summary of each of the research studies from that project. These summaries were provided by project co-organizers Sebnem Kalemli-Ozcan of University of Maryland and NBER and Kenneth Rogoff of Harvard University and NBER. A detailed list of these research studies may be found at: https://www.nber.org/confer/2013/SDf13/summary.html

These presentations were followed by a panel discussion on sovereign debt markets featuring Guillermo Calvo of Columbia University and NBER, Vitor Gaspar of International Monetary Fund, and project co-organizer Carmen Reinhart of Harvard University and NBER.
