Register Now

You are cordially invited by the Center for Financial Policy at the University of Maryland’s Robert H. Smith School of Business to hear internationally renowned economist Dr. Henry Kaufman give his predictions on the financial outlook in “Continuing Economic and Financial Uncertainties” on Wednesday, October 6, 2010 (2333 Van Munching Hall). This event is free and open to the public, but seating is limited so please register online now to reserve your spot!

Earlier this year, the Smith School received a $1 million endowment from the Henry & Elaine Kaufman Foundation to support a fellowship in business history, in affiliation with the school’s Center for Financial Policy. University of Maryland history professor David Sicilia was appointed the first Henry Kaufman Fellow in Business History, effective July 1.

Dr. Kaufman first became involved with the Center for Financial Policy last fall when he spoke to business leaders, policy makers, faculty and students at two separate events about the financial crisis and his recent book, “The Road to Financial Reformation: Warnings, Consequences, Reforms.” In this and previous books and in many influential addresses and editorials during his long and distinguished Wall Street career, Dr. Kaufman has cautioned against credit overexpansion and regulatory lapses now seen as underpinning the recent financial collapse.
