THE 6TH BIENNIAL CONFERENCE

2010 6th Biennial Conference on 17 - 19 December 2010 at Nankai University in Tianjin, China

The Hong Kong Economic Association has been hosting its biennial conferences in Hong Kong since 2000. Each time we had world class scholars including Nobel Laureates in Economics and prominent leaders including the Financial Secretary and the Secretary for Financial Services to serve as keynote speakers. Each time it is well attended, with participants coming from countries across the world. The success of this event has been made possible by the united effort of all seven universities in Hong Kong.

This year we are co-organizing the biennial event with School of Economics at Nankai University in Tianjin. The conference will be held at Nankai during December 18-19, 2010, with December 17 being reserved for check-in/registration etc.
