On 15 June 2026, students from the Institute for Law and Finance (Goethe University Frankfurt) attended an insightful presentation on the role and tasks of the European Central Bank (ECB) in the ECB’s main building in Frankfurt am Main. The lecture began with a digital quiz about the ECB, followed by a comprehensive overview of its vital role in maintaining stability in the European financial system and banking supervision. Afterwards, our students raised various questions leading to discussions on e.g. how the ECB manages to remain independent, how experts at the ECB predict inflation trends, and the implementation of the digital Euro.
This visit provided our students the invaluable experience to acquire a direct insight into the ECB and its workings as well as the opportunity to engage in a lively dialogue with its representatives! We thank the ECB and its representative for hosting us!
