Economic security in a turbulent world | Keynote address by Dr Steven Kennedy PSM, Secretary to the Australian Treasury

On 19 and 20 June 2024, the United States Studies Centre hosted a major international conference in Sydney spotlighting the search for “economic security in a turbulent world”. Over a day and a half, the conference brought together leading policymakers, business executives and independent experts from around the world to discuss arguably the defining economic policy debate of our age – how to reconcile security and prosperity in an era of strategic competition and economic interdependence.

A keynote address was provided by Dr Steven Kennedy PSM, Secretary to the Australian Treasury.
