PhD Candidate James Patriquin and Professor Randall Germain recently attended a workshop in Tutzing Germany on ‘The Politics of Global Finance: actors, structures, ratings’. This was a workshop in honour of the late Timothy J. Sinclair, a leading scholar on credit rating agencies. James Patriquin presented a paper titled ‘The Digital Trilemma’, which is drawn from his doctoral dissertation Technologies of Global Governance: money, finance and power in the era of digital currencies. Randall Germain participated in the final plenary panel on the future of global finance.
