Event Overview
The agenda content is now available to view on-demand on our YouTube channel.
The 26th edition of The Central and Eastern European Forum was held virtually for the first time in its prestigious history. Once again, the event brought together issuers, investors, intermediaries, and policymakers with an interest in the region and to help set the agenda for the year ahead.
The event kicked off with an opening keynote address from Mairead McGuinness, the new commissioner for financial services at the European Commission who outlined the necessity of developing tools to recover from 2020. The next keynote was delivered by Odile Renaud-Basso, President, European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) who stressed the importance of building back better. Following on, we were honoured to be joined by Ministers from Poland, Hungary, Bulgaria, Croatia and North Macedonia for informative and engaging keynote interviews on their country economic developments.
Additional highlights included a keynote interview with Lilyana Pavlova, Vice-President and Member of the Management Committee, European Investment Bank (EIB) and a keynote presentation from Alfred Kammer, Director of the European Department, International Monetary Fund (IMF).
For the esteemed Monetary policy session, we welcomed Central Bank Governors from several countries from across the region including Czech Republic, Hungary, Ukraine, Bulgaria, Croatia, Slovenia, Georgia, Albania and North Macedonia.
Overall, 18 sessions covered topics including macroeconomics, corporate finance, monetary policy, CEE banking, sustainable finance, and much more.
We would like to thank our sponsors for supporting the Forum this year. We very much look forward to convening again next year and too seeing you all in person again in the not-too distant future.

CEE 2021| Panel VIII: Back to normality? Or permanent change to the economies of central Europe?
25 February 2021 | Euromoney Conferences
• Which economic, political and behavioural responses to the pandemic can’t be un-invented? And which were temporary? • Paying the bill. How much debt have governments take on? will they ever be able to repay? Should we worry? • Rethinking the social contract: will covid-austerity cause populism 2.0?
CEE 2021| Panel VI: A new relationship with the Euro – pegs, ERM and the alternatives
25 February 2021 | Euromoney Conferences
• The decision to join ERM II – what are the right conditions? What preparation is needed? • Political and social attitudes: how much buy-in do you need from politicians, banks, citizens? • You’re stuck with it when you are in: how to gauge the right level for currency: euro conversion?
