The French response to the Covid-19 crisis: An IMF analysis 

France has been one of the European countries most affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and has consequently faced one of the largest economic shocks. The webinar hosts Jeffrey Franks who will present the latest views of the IMF on the crisis, the French authorities’ response and policies needed to create a more inclusive, green, and productive economy in the post-pandemic period. 

Jeffrey Franks is Assistant Director of the IMF’s European Department and mission chief for France and Austria. In more than 25-years at the Fund, he has held numerous other assignments, including Director of the IMF offices in Paris and Brussels, heading the resident offices in Ukraine and Ecuador, and leading teams on Pakistan, Romania, Belgium, and Paraguay. He received his Ph.D. in Political Economy and Government from Harvard, and has Master’s degrees from Princeton and Oxford universities. 

La présentation de Jeffrey Franks sera suivie d'une session d'échange avec des étudiants de Dauphine et avec le public (français/anglais).
