  • VUB and ULB, “Stewardship of Finance” chair, Prince Philip and Princess Mathilda of Belgium ask students about their research, Avril 18 2013

    Well, call me sentimental, but in a world of confrontation, disarray and dearth of proper answers, the whole occasion was, please forgive me for being so blunt, perfect.

  • VUB, “Stewardship of Finance” Chair, fifteenth lecture, 17th April 2013

    “What Can We Tell about the Future?” was my final lecture at the Stewardship of Finance chair in the academic year 2012-2013. The lecture was held in English as had been the case with prior ones. Most questions which then came from the room were in French, I answered them in the same tongue.

    The author whose name I unfortunately don’t remember during the lecture: Donald MacKenzie, An Engine, Not a Camera. How Financial Models Shape Markets, Cambridge (Mass.) : MIT Press 2006
