SUMMARY:12th International Conference on Sovereign Bond Markets
TRANSP:TRANSPARENT
UID:2026_06_02_luxembourg_968976
DESCRIPTION:The conference this year focuses on Sovereign Bond Markets in
  Geopolitical Storms\, and it is hosted by the Banque Centrale du Luxemb
 ourg. Co-organizers include the Bank of Canada\, the Deutsche Bundesbank
 \, Euronext-MTS\, the European Central Bank\, the European Stability Mec
 hanism\, the Imperial College | Brevan Howard Centre for Financial Analy
 sis\, the Leibniz Institute for Financial Research SAFE\, the London Bus
 iness School | AQR Asset Management Institute\, the McGill Luxembourg Ce
 ntre for Finance\, and the NYU Stern | Volatility and Risk Institute.\n\
 nAs global geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainty rises\, financial 
 markets are displaying strains across the board\, and no asset has been 
 spared\, from stocks to exchange rates to corporate bonds to commodities
 . Yet\, at the center of it all are once again the markets for governmen
 t bonds after more than a decade of relative calm following the crisis o
 f the Euro. Inflation\, political risk\, trade wars\, tariff uncertainty
 \, and burgeoning debt have all been rocking sovereign bond markets at t
 he same time when several governments around the world increasingly rely
  on them to fund expanding budget deficits. Central banks continue to ho
 ld large amount of these securities\, whose gyrations affect their abili
 ty to pursue stabilizing monetary policies. This turmoil is likely to co
 ntinue\, and so are the unprecedented challenges currently faced by glob
 al capital markets.\n\nThe final program will include both submitted and
  invited papers. The conference will also feature a keynote speaker and 
 a panel discussion on major outstanding issues in bond markets.
