How much is dotty art worth - physical or digital?

Event Type: ESA Event

Date: Wednesday Apr 16, 2025, 5:45 pm

From: Australian Capital Territory

Proving that economics can be both fascinating and fun, Dr. John Hawkins and Jack Wasson from the University of Canberra will unpack the economics behind Damien Hirst's Currency

British artist, Damien Hirst, recently sold some of his dotty paintings. The twist was that buyers had to choose whether to have them on paper or as an electronic Non-Fungible Tokens (NFT) - they could not have both. The NFT had a life of one year - after which they could be exchanged for coloured dots on an A4 sheet of paper. If the NFT was not exchanged, the corresponding paper would be burned and disappear forever.  

Guest Speakers: Dr John Hawkins and Jack Wasson

UC Economics students FOC : limits and conditions apply.

The Promo Code will be provided internally from the Faculty of Business, Government and Law.

What Drives Bond Yields - EXCLUSIVE Members webinar - ONLINE ONLY

Event Type: ESA Event

Date: Thursday Apr 3, 2025, 12:30 pm

From: Queensland

While central banks around the world – including most recently here in Australia – have been cutting interest rates, there is so much more that affects the longer-term  cost of capital for governments than just the overnight policy rate.
 
Last year, QTC Chief Economist Michael Anthonisz released a six-part series on the drivers of government bond yields (available here). In this webinar for members of the Economic Society of Australia (Queensland), Mr Anthonisz will provide an overview of what drives movements in bond yields, examine trends in the sub-components which make up bond yields and what could drive movements in these sub-components. He will also provide topical examples – focussed on equilibrium interest rates and US public debt – of factors which could impact these as well as presenting some long-term projections for Australian and US Government yields.
 
This is a session not to be missed for those looking to build a deeper understanding of what sort of factors can influence government borrowing costs.

Monetary Policy: Theory vs Practice

Event Type: ESA Event

Date: Wednesday Apr 2, 2025, 12:15 pm

From: New South Wales

In theory, monetary policy is relatively straightforward. In practice, it is anything but. The gap between theory and practice was brought into sharp focus by the recent review of the RBA. Many observers had expected the review to focus on monetary policy objectives – a relatively theoretical aspect of monetary policy making. Instead, it surprised many by placing a major emphasis on very practical aspects such as institutional governance, culture and communications. This talk will discuss why these often overlooked practical aspects of monetary policy are, in fact, essential to good monetary policy making.

Great Game On

Event Type: ESA Event

Date: Wednesday Mar 26, 2025, 5:30 pm

From: Victoria

Come along for an insightful talk on the modern 'Great Game'. The 'Great game’ refers to an old idea from the 19th century – a shorthand for British and Russian imperial competition in Eurasia, mainly based on thinking by the British that the Russians were after India. An idea with little validity but a widely accepted phenomenon. This talk will explore the parallels between the 19th century 'Great game' and today's geopolitical landscape. The new game is between China and the US – and Eurasia is the hinge.
