Guest Lecture:Koen Schoors

On 18 November 2025 at 2:00 PM, the Young Economists Society of Uzbekistan hosted a special lecture by Professor Koen Schoors at New Uzbekistan University. Professor Schoors, a renowned economist with a PhD from Ghent University and postdoctoral experience at Oxford University, led a session titled “Crisis? What Crisis? Bank Stability, Financial Development and Media Freedom.”

During the lecture, Professor Schoors examined the critical relationships between financial stability, economic development, and media freedom. He highlighted how transparency, access to information, and institutional accountability are as important as capital and credit in shaping resilient economies, offering a comprehensive perspective on the factors that influence financial systems and economic governance.

The event provided YESU members with a rare opportunity to engage with an internationally recognized economist, deepen their understanding of global finance, and gain insights into the mechanisms that underpin stable and well-functioning economies. This lecture was designed for students and professionals passionate about financial systems, economic policy, and governance.
