Session 1
Responses to trade shocks
Chair: Luis de Guindos, Vice-President, European Central Bank
The global trade landscape has been changing, with rising protectionist pressures: What are the implications for CESEE countries, where export-led growth has often been supported by increasing globalisation and involvement in global value chains (GVCs)? How similar or dissimilar are these economies in terms of their global and regional trade integration, their GVC participation, and the importance of trade for their growth models? What role does EU/euro area membership play? Are CESEE countries adjusting to the new developments? What could be the main changes in their trade models? Are they becoming less dependent on parent companies and global shocks? How are local suppliers performing? Is there scope for more trade integration at the regional level? What could be the potential impact of protectionism on confidence, welfare, productivity and competitiveness in the region? What are the main comparative advantages of the region? What are the resulting policy challenges and which measures and reforms should be adopted?

Session 2
Responses to monetary policy and financial shocks
Chair: Benoît Cœuré, Member of the Executive Board, European Central Bank
The global financial landscape is changing, and financial conditions have tightened:
How is the path towards normalisation of the monetary policies of the Federal Reserve System and, prospectively, the European Central Bank (ECB) influencing financial conditions and monetary policies in the CESEE countries? What have been the major spillovers from changing global financial conditions? How have they differed depending on the different monetary policy frameworks and exchange rate regimes in place? Is there any dissimilarity, in terms of impact on the region, between the policies of the Federal Reserve System and the ECB? What is the impact on capital flows to the region? What are the potential implications for economic growth and for the paths towards euro adoption? What are the prospects for further financial development in the region? What are the resulting policy challenges and what options do CESEE countries have in order to address them?

De Europese Centrale Bank (ECB) is verantwoordelijk voor het monetaire beleid van de Unie. De basisdoelstelling van de ECB is het handhaven van de prijsstabiliteit binnen de eurozone i en daarmee het bewaken van de koopkracht en het beheersen van de inflatie.
Sinds september 2014 speelt de ECB ook een rol in het toezicht op een deel van de Europese banken.
