Description

The session will provide a venue for scholars working on fourteenth century commerce, credit, banking, finance, markets, and other economic issues to share the results of their current research and to forge or enhance relationships with other scholars working in these fields. The research is important not only for our understanding of the fourteenth century, but also for our understanding of the workings of our current capital markets.
