Global Integration, Competition, and Innovation
49th NABE Annual Meeting
San Francisco CA
September 9-11, 2007
Stanford University economist John B. Taylor has a working title for his Adam Smith address: “Surprising Predictions of Monetary Policy Rules.” The former U.S. Treasury official will receive NABE’s Adam Smith Award at the 49th annual meeting in San Francisco, Sept. 9-11.
Taylor also tells NABE News that his current reading of economic data shows a strong global economy that, to a significant degree, has proved beneficial to what he terms the continuing “global financial war” on terrorist funding sources. In his book “Global Financial Warriors: The Untold Story of International Finance in the Post 9/ll World,” he recounts his experiences leading the U.S. Treasury team that worked with Iraqi officials to stabilize that country’s economy and create a financial system.
Despite continuing security concerns, Taylor believes that “by and large the Iraq economy is doing fine.” Guarding against inflation spikes as the Iraq economy moves forward is among the major challenges confronting officials there, he said.
Overall, Taylor thinks that Congress needs to pay more attention to “the financial side of the war on terror” as it debates funding measures for the federal government.
