The Central Bank of Argentina invited Bank of Greece Governor Yannis Stournaras to deliver a keynote at the Money and Banking Conference in Buenos Aires. He will take part in two sessions on 16 November, including one on resolving a sovereign crisis with Argentine economy officials.
Why it matters
The invitation recognizes Greece's economic turnaround after a deep fiscal and financial crisis, and its relevance to Argentina, which is pursuing an economic transition. The sessions bring the Greek experience into direct discussion with policymakers facing similar challenges.
The conference schedule lists two sessions for Stournaras on 16 November, within a programme running 16 and 17 November 2026. The sessions do not yet reveal what specific lessons or recommendations will be presented.

The details
Stournaras will deliver the keynote address at the conference.

17 November 2026: Milei delivers the conference closing address.
Economic Policy Context
The invitation draws on Greece's experience of a deep fiscal and financial crisis and its subsequent economic turnaround, framing that recovery as a lesson for economies in transition. The session on resolving a sovereign crisis positions Greek policy as a reference point for Argentina's current reforms.
The sessions are a forum for policy discussion rather than a decision point, so the conference itself does not change household finances. Readers following sovereign debt or reform debates can track what the Greek and Argentine officials say on 16 November.
The takeaway
Greece's recovery from a deep fiscal and financial crisis is now being presented as a practical reference for other economies. Countries weighing structural reforms can take from it that sustained adjustment is possible even after severe sovereign stress.
