Experts Discuss Markets, Economic Trends

The SEC brought together experts from government and the private sector to discuss the economic trends impacting our securities markets at the agency’s headquarters in Washington, D.C.

The event opened with a fireside chat with Chairman Jay Clayton, Former Director of the U.S. National Economic Council Gary Cohn, and Co-Founder of Silver Lake Partners Glenn Hutchins about global macroeconomic trends. One focus of the discussion was how technology continues to drive financial innovation, creating new efficiencies and opportunities for everyday investors. There was also an emphasis on the importance of cybersecurity in an increasingly digital world.

“Today's conference brought together experts who enlightened us with their candid perspectives on risks in the economy and in the markets – this marks as the first in a series of conferences designed to further the SEC’s mission.”
– S.P. Kothari, Director of the Division of Economic and Risk Analysis
