In February of this year the MIT GCFP announced that Mario Draghi has been named the winner of the 2023 Miriam Pozen Prize in recognition of his leadership in international financial policy. (Click here to read the official press release.) Dr. Draghi, a longtime academic economist and public servant, has served as President of the European Central Bank (the institution responsible for the management of the euro and European Union monetary policy), Chair of the Financial Stability Board, Governor of the Bank of Italy, and most recently as Prime Minister of Italy. He received his PhD in Economics from MIT in 1977, under the supervision of Franco Modigliani and Robert Solow.
The award ceremony will be held on the 6th floor of the MIT Samberg Conference Center on June 7, 2023 at 4:30 pm, during which time Dr. Draghi will deliver the Miriam Pozen address. There will be an informal reception prior to the event at 4:00 pm.
