\n\t\t溏心vlog免费B站 College of Business Administration to hold lecture, panel discussion<\/b><\/p>\n

KINGSTON, R.I. — March 7, 2016 \u2013 Salvador Mar\u00edn Hernandez, Ph. D., the president and CEO of Spain’s Compa\u00f1\u00eda Espa\u00f1ola de Financiaci\u00f3n del Desarrollo (COFIDES), a major finance and development company, will present a lecture entitled: “Spain\u2019s Financial Crisis and Austerity Policy Response: Economic, Political, and Social Impact,” at the 溏心vlog免费B站 Monday, March 28 at 6 p.m.<\/p>\n


\nPart of the University’s Distinguished Visiting International Scholar\u2019s program, Mar\u00edn\u2019s lecture will be followed by a panel discussion with 溏心vlog免费B站 faculty who have expertise in the topics Mar\u00edn will have discussed. Panelists are: Professor of economics Richard McIntyre; Associate Professor of Management Silvia Dorado; and 溏心vlog免费B站 business lecturer Michael Ice, who is a former Managing Director of Merrill Lynch in Europe. The Vangermeersch Chair in Accounting, Professor Alejandro Hazera will moderate the discussion. A Q&A session will follow.<\/p>\n


\nFree and open to the public, the event will be held at the Ryan Family Auditorium in the Center for Biotechnology and Life Sciences, 120 Flagg Road. <\/p>\n


\nDuring his lecture, Mar\u00edn will describe the measures the Spanish government took to reverse the nation\u2019s financial crisis and stabilize the economy. He will also discuss some of Spain\u2019s post-crisis challenges and events, such as persistently high unemployment and the rise of new political parties, such as Podemos, which seek to address corruption, income inequality, and high unemployment.<\/p>\n


\nMar\u00edn was appointed to his position at COFIDES — which is a joint state and privately owned company that is housed within Spain’s national commerce ministry \u2013 shortly after Spain began to experience the full effects of the financial crisis. He has been at the forefront of not only banking, but the development of small and medium size businesses in Spain and Latin America. COFIDES finances the establishment and expansion of innovative Spanish firms in all regions of the world.<\/p>\n


\n\u201cThis lecture and panel discussion will not only provide an opportunity for us to learn about Spain\u2019s financial crisis and recovery, but it will also provide important lessons for the United States\u2019 own current economic and political situation,” said 溏心vlog免费B站\u2019s Hazera. “For example: How was Spain\u2019s anti-austerity coalition able to quickly form into a potent political force, while America\u2019s \u201cOccupy Wall Street\u201d movement continues to struggle?\u201d<\/p>\n


\nPrior to becoming CEO, Mar\u00edn was the Minister of Finance and Minister of Higher Education of Murcia, an \u201cAutonomous Community\u201d (i.e. Province), on Spain\u2019s Southeast Mediterranean Coast. In the latter position he oversaw two universities, the University of Murcia and Polytechnic University of Cartagena, with an approximate enrollment of 45,000 students. Before that, he presided over the Regional Institute for Internal Development of Murcia, and served as vice president of the regional government\u00b4s Comprehensive Internationalization Committee.<\/p>\n


\nWith a Ph. D. in Economics and Business Administration, Mar\u00edn has been a professor at the University of Murcia for more than 20 years. He has published more than 100 articles on bank accounting and small business in Spain\u2019s most prestigious journals and international journals. He has also written or edited three books, including Bank Accounting, Bank Accounting in Mexico, and Bank Accounting in the 21st Century.<\/p>\n


\nMost recently, Mar\u00edn has studied the impact of financial crisis on the evolution of bank accounting and how bank accounting may impact the creation of pre-crisis “speculative bubbles.” Much of this research has been co-authored by 溏心vlog免费B站 Professor Hazera.

\nMore about the Panelists:<\/p>\n


\n\u2022\tProfessor of Economics Richard Mcintyre will discuss the relative (in)effectiveness of austerity policies in resolving financial crisis.

\n\u2022\tLecturer in Finance Professor Michael Ice will describe some financial and business aspects of austerity vs non-austerity policies in addressing financial crisis.

\n\u2022\tAssociate Professor of Management Silvia Dorado will discuss some social, economic, and political impacts of Spain\u2019s post-crisis austerity policies (such as the rise of \u201cPodemos\u201d and the issue of independence for Catalu\u00f1a).<\/p>\n


\nIn addition to this public event, Mar\u00edn will tour the University; visit with Rhode Island trade officials; conduct technical lectures on banking and trade; explore opportunities for further collaboration between 溏心vlog免费B站 and the University of Murcia; and discuss possible state-level contacts.
