He also holds a professorship in macroeconomics and finance at Humboldt University in Berlin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His education and professional career are linked to many years abroad and reflect his global orientation and perspective as an economist: his studies took him from Kiel (economics) via Oxford (philosophy, politics and economics) and Harvard (public policy) to the European University Institute in Florence, where he obtained a Ph.D. in economics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-marcel-fratzscher-speaking-topics\">Marcel Fratzscher Speaking Topics:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Inflation, Energy transition &amp; Ecology: What next for Germany?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>USA, China, Russia: The new political world order and where does that leave the EU?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ukraine, Russia &amp; the Middle East: What impact will this have on Europe?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Refugee crisis &amp; migration policy: Quo vadis Europe?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Economic opportunities and risks for Germany and Europe<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Outlook for Europe: ways out of the economic, financial and debt crisis<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The role of the IMF and ECB&#8217;s monetary policy and its significance for Germany and Europe<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Germany&#8217;s investment gap: why we overestimate our economy and need Europe<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>An Asian century?

In his current book, &#8220;Verteilungskampf &#8211; warum Deutschland immer ungleicher wird,&#8221; he highlights the problems for the economy and society due to high and rising inequality in Germany.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Book Marcel Fratzscher as a keynote speaker at The Premium Speakers Agency.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Marcel Fratzscher: The Future of Economy and Society after the Crisis.
