At a time when the global economy is facing a major shock from the Covid-19 pandemic, financial centres will play an enormous role in assisting recovery, as well as being candidates for recovery themselves.

On July 15, representatives of financial centres across the world were brought together during the online conclave co-organized by Z/Yen Group and China Development Institute in discussion of areas of common interest on restarting economies, adjusting strategies, and renovating financial centres for the next decade. Speakers include: The Right Honourable The Lord Mayor of The City of London, Alderman William Russell, as well as Alderman and Sheriff Professor Michael Mainelli.
