Dear Sir or Madam,
We have the pleasure of inviting you to an OeNB-SUERF workshop on the occasion of Austria’s, Finland’s and Sweden’s
25th EU membership anniversary, which will be held online via Cisco Webex Meeting on September 21, 2020:
2020 marks the 25th anniversary of the EU’s Northern enlargement, which, after several years of negotiations, made Austria, Finland and Sweden EU members on 1 January 1995. There is hardly any other step in foreign and economic
policy for a European country in the 2nd half of the 20th (and in the 21st) century that could be more far-reaching and important than EU membership. It is thus worth looking back on what EU membership has entailed for the
three countries. The OeNB has prepared two volumes to study the issue in some detail. First, a special edition of
Monetary Policy and the Economy,
Q1-Q2/2020 contains a collection of analyses focusing on aspects pertaining primarily on Austria. Second, a collection of contributions covering perspectives from all three “Northern EU enlargement countries” are compiled
in a conference volume (to be published).
This workshop, jointly organized by the
OeNB and
SUERF – The European Money and Finance Forum presents main findings from both volumes, in order to make the analysis known to a broader audience
and in order to seek views and feedback from a wider public.
Please find the latest program online.
