Conference – 2006
Demography and Financial Markets
23–25 July 2006
This G-20 workshop, jointly hosted by the Reserve Bank and the
Australian Treasury, brought together academics, policy advisors,
private sector participants and representatives from the participating
G-20 nations. The workshop examined the impact of demographic trends
on macroeconomic factors relevant to financial markets, particularly
saving and investment, capital flows and asset prices, as well as on
the structure and operation of financial markets. The participants also
placed considerable focus on policy issues, identifying the nature and
extent of possible market imperfections and impediments, and the scope
for policy-makers to address these.
A volume, containing the conference papers and discussions, was
published on 12 October 2006.
