THOMAS WIESER non-resident scholar, Bruegel, former President of the Euro Working Group and of the European Financial Committee of the EU MONDAY, 17 DECEMBER 2018, 5:30 PM (17:30 CET) wiiw, Rahlgasse 3, 1060 Vienna, lecture hall (entrance from the ground floor) Policy Perspectives for European Integration [https://wiiw.ac.at/policy-perspectives-for-european-integration-es-15.html] The present work strand of EMU Reforms has been an ongoing project for nearly a decade, and will continue for at least as long. Reforms have been undertaken against a vast background of analytical and policy papers going back decades. Progress has nevertheless been slow and uneven. To a certain extent there is genuine lack of intellectual agreement, but more importantly political approaches towards a stable and efficient monetary union differ across Member States. I shall discuss these issues against the background of the issues described in the so-called Four Presidents’ Report. How far have we gotten, and what are the medium term prospects for further reforms? What are the political forces that push, and what are the political forces that impede progress? ...more [https://wiiw.ac.at/political-constraints-of-emu-reform-what-is-feasible-whe…] WE KINDLY ASK YOU TO REGISTER [https://wiiw.ac.at/bc-e-er-414.html] for the event.

Our analysis focuses both on the issue of structural changes within manufacturing and also provides evidence of the changing role of manufacturing in the wider economy. This is done by means of carefully disaggregating and analysing structural change patterns based on a new and comprehensive data base for the post war era taking into account various sources of heterogeneities and variations all of which are discussed in the context of their theoretical ramification. Our analysis indicates a high degree of sector-specific heterogeneity within manufacturing that is also subject to significant variation over time. ...more [https://wiiw.ac.at/the-structural-dynamics-of-deindustrialisation-and-the-e…] WE KINDLY ASK YOU TO REGISTER [https://wiiw.ac.at/bc-e-er-412.html] for the event.

by Ricci, Martino 03 Dec '18

03 Dec '18

On behalf of the selection panel, For your information there are various traineeship opportunities at the European Central Bank that are published at different points in time (apologies for cross-posting). Our business area, the Directorate General International and European Relations, has recently published a vacancy on the ECB website for students that have completed at least two years of PhD: https://www.ecb.europa.eu/careers/vacancies/html/vacancydetails.en.html?id=…. This might be of interest to students from your university. In case you want to advertise it, this would be highly welcome. Given the limited number of positions, the number of applicants may be high and the positions very competitive. However the application process is quite straightforward. We encourage interested students to submit a project proposal of one page max, which is however not binding as selected students might be asked to work on other relevant topics of interest for the Directorate General. They should take note of the deadline for applying is the 10th of December. Contracts are typically set initially for 3 months with (potential) extensions up to 1 year. Kind regards, Martino [Description: Description: Description: ecb-logo] Martino Ricci Economist External Development Division Directorate General International and European Relations Sonnemannstr. 20 D-60314 Frankfurt Tel.: +49 69 13 44 47 96 e-mail: martino.ricci(a)ecb.europa.eu<mailto:martino.ricci@ecb.europa.eu> Any e-mail message from the European Central Bank (ECB) is sent in good faith, but shall neither be binding nor construed as constituting a commitment by the ECB except where provided for in a written agreement.

Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren! Ich darf Sie zu folgendem Vortrag der Arbeitskreise Wirtschaftsstatistik/VGR bzw. Finanzstatistik der Österreichischen Statistischen Gesellschaft einladen: Die unterstellte Bankgebühr (FISIM) im ESVG 2010 5.12.2018 / Wirtschaftsstatistik/VGR und Finanzstatistik MMag.a Agnes Peterseil, MS (Statistik Austria) Mittwoch, 5. Dezember 2018, 16:00 Uhr Oesterreichische Nationalbank, Veranstaltungssaal (M0010) Erdgeschoss 1090 Wien, Otto Wagner Platz 3 Zum Inhalt: Die unterstellte Bankgebühr (Financial Intermediation Services Indirectly Measured, FISIM) ist ein Konzept der Volkswirtschaftlichen Gesamtrechnungen und misst die Erträge aus dem Kredit- und Einlagengeschäft, die die Hauptkomponente der Produktion des Bankensektors darstellen. Bei einer Produktion von 7,8 Mrd. € im Jahr 2016 trug die FISIM 0,8% direkt zum österreichischen Bruttoinlandsprodukt und 0,6% zum Bruttonationaleinkommen bei. Mit dem ESVG 2010 kam es zum wiederholten Mal zu Neuerungen in der Behandlung der FISIM im Rahmen der VGR, die im Zuge der Jahresrechnung im Herbst 2014 in Österreich erstmals implementiert wurden. Der Vortrag gibt einen Überblick über aktuelle Konzepte und Methoden sowie über quantitative Aspekte der FISIM in Österreich.
