The Peterson Institute is a private, nonprofit, nonpartisan research institution devoted to the study of international economic policy. Since 1981 the Institute has provided timely and objective analysis of, and concrete solutions to, a wide range of international economic problems. It is one of the very few economics think tanks that are widely regarded as "nonpartisan" by the press and "neutral" by the US Congress, and it is cited by the quality media more than any other such institution.</itunes:summary><itunes:category text="Government &amp; Organizations"><itunes:category text="Non-Profit" /></itunes:category><itunes:category text="News &amp; Politics" /><atom10:link xmlns:atom10="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom" rel="self" href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/PetersonEventPodcast" type="application/rss+xml" /><item>

<description>The Peterson Institute released its new study Banking on Basel: The Future of International Financial Regulation by Daniel K. Tarullo on October 23, 2008. The current financial crisis demonstrates that future financial regulation must be more extensive and internationalized. Tarullo's central question is whether financial institutions would have been sounder if the Basel II Framework had already been implemented and/or whether the crisis has revealed a need for further strategies for capital regulation.&lt;div class="feedflare"&gt;

<description>The Peterson Institute hosted a meeting to discuss the outlook for world energy prices, and the influence of current US Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) policies on them, on December 12, 2007. Visiting Fellow Philip Verleger, whose predictions have been uncannily accurate in the past, presented his predictions on a coming rise to sustained triple-digit oil prices and how "mismanagement of the SPR" is accelerating that increase. Dr. Verleger believes that central banks, including the Federal Reserve, are paying insufficient attention to this important supply-side source of inflation and may be making serious policy mistakes as a result.&lt;div class="feedflare"&gt;
