ICCJ invites you to a luncheon on the possible impacts – for Europe and for the rest of the world – of the ongoing economic and financial developments in China, which have recently come to the forefront of the international policy debate.
After more than three decades of double-digit growth, which has transformed the country into one of the biggest economies and trading powers of the world, China is entering a phase of rebalancing its economic structure and a slowdown of its pace of economic expansion.
Featuring Angelo Cicogna, Head of Bank of Italy Representative Office in Tokyo, and Akio Takahara, Professor of Contemporary Chinese Politics at the University of Tokyo Graduate School of Law and Politics, the talk will focus on the risks and the global economic and financial implications of China’s transition to a “new normal”.

Graduated from Bocconi University and London School of Economics.
He joined the Bank of Italy in 1986 and has working experience in Italy, US and Egypt.
