Housing Conference “Learning from the past and looking to the future”
Friday 19 January 2018
A one day conference of invited papers looking at aspects of housing markets over the longer term and drawing on experiences from many countries.
The aim is to see what we might learn about the future course of housing market conditions (in terms of prices, ownership structures, financing conditions and the impact of those things on the wider economy) from the past. Policy implications will be discussed in the final session.
The conference is organised by the Brevan Howard Centre for Financial Analysis at Imperial College Business School and the Centre for Economic Policy Research.
