The National Bank of Ukraine launched a series of research seminars last summer. During these seminars, representatives from the academic and expert community, international financial institutions, other central banks and the National Bank of Ukraine are offered an opportunity to present their research findings and discuss them within a narrow circle of experts. With the aim of arranging further research seminars, we encourage potential contributors to collaborate with us and present the findings of their research studies on issues related to the activities of the National Bank of Ukraine and the operation of the financial system. Proposals (with an indication of a suitable date for the seminar, and attached presentation materials, an executive summary and/or draft contributions) should be sent to the Research Division of the Monetary Policy and Economic Analysis Department via e-mail to [email protected] or [email protected].
