The Governor of the Bank of Spain will take to the stage at LSE to discuss the future of globalisation. 

The Governor of the Bank of Spain will take to the LSE stage to discuss the future of globalisation. He will analyse how the increase in trade and monetary relationships have brought about considerable benefits but also challenges for European integration. He will dwell on the vulnerabilities and dependencies affecting commercial and financial flows in the EU. The way in which the EU responds to these challenges will shape both the future of globalisation and of the EU.
