About the Conference | Conference Schedule
CATO'S 30TH ANNUAL MONETARY CONFERENCE — MONEY, MARKETS, AND GOVERNMENT: THE NEXT 30 YEARS — will address the links between sound money, free markets, and limited government, and how those links might evolve in the future. One path is to continue the present course and use central banks to monetize government debt, allocate credit, and distort interest rates. An alternative path is to limit the size and scope of government, adopt a rules-based regime, and let free capital markets allocate credit. The choice of monetary and fiscal policy regimes will determine whether economic and social harmony will spontaneously emerge or whether government power will continue to grow.

- How the choice of monetary and fiscal policy regimes affect economic freedom and prosperity
