#  About PEIF 

 



Politics and Economics of International Finance (PEIF) is a continuing series of annual one-day PEIF conferences that brings together scholars interested in economic and political-economy issues in international financial relations. Three scholars are asked each to present a body of their research in a unified narrative. The day concludes with a policy panel. The current PEIF series is chaired by Jeffrey Frankel and Jeffry Frieden, and is organized under the auspices of Harvard’s Weatherhead Center for International Affairs and the Mossavar-Rahmani Center for Business and Government.
