Wed, 21 May 2025 13:47:27 GMT

Where did the 2021-2022 surge of inflation come from? How can we avoid a repeat? What lessons does the inflation surge have for today’s policies? How will tariffs affect the economy, with a special eye on inflation? How should the Fed respond? What dangers lie ahead resulting from huge debt and deficits? What will happen in the next crisis or recession – which may come sooner than you think. How much control does the Fed have over the economy? Dr. Cochrane will address these and related questions.

Speaker John H. Cochrane is the Rose-Marie and Jack Anderson Senior Fellow of the Hoover Institution at Stanford University. Dr. Cochrane is also a Senior Fellow of the Stanford Institute for Economic Policy Research (SIEPR), Professor of Finance and Economics (by Courtesy) at Stanford GSB, a Research Associate of the National Bureau of Economic Research, and an Adjunct Scholar of the CATO Institute. Before coming to Hoover, Cochrane was the AQR Capital Management Distinguished Service Professor of Finance at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business.

Dr. Cochrane is a past President and Fellow of the American Finance Association, and a Fellow of the Econometric Society. He has been an Editor of the Journal of Political Economy, and associate editor of several other journals. He is the recipient of several prestigious awards, including: the Bradley Prize, the APEE Adam Smith award, the TIAA-CREF Institute Paul A. Samuelson Award for his book Asset Pricing, and the Chookaszian Endowed Risk Management Prize.

His monetary economics publications include the book The Fiscal Theory of the Price Level and articles on monetary policy and inflation. His finance publications include the book Asset Pricing and numerous articles on dynamics in stock and bond markets, the volatility of exchange rates, the term structure of interest rates, and other topics. He writes occasional Op-eds, mostly in the Wall Street Journal, and blogs as “the Grumpy Economist” at grumpy-economist.com.

Breakfast Briefing Series - FMLA And ADA Compliance – Frequently Asked Questions and Compliance Challenges (complimentary webcast) 6/18/2025 8:30 AM - 6/18/2025

Tue, 03 Jun 2025 10:44:54 GMT

Amundsen Davis’s Breakfast Briefing series will continue June 18 with a discussion of the top challenges employers face under the FMLA and ADA. Bob Simandl and Ann Barry Hanneman, partners in the firm’s Labor, Employment & Immigration Service Group, will bring their extensive experience in this area to address legal and practical compliance obligations for employers.

Bob and Ann will address real-world concerns for employers by answering commonly asked questions, including:

1. How important is adhering to the FMLA’s permitted notice obligations in taking leave?

2. What options are available to employers in managing the taking of intermittent FMLA leave?

3. What are the limitations on an employer’s ability to require paid leave to be used along with FMLA?

4. For chronic condition FMLA use, when does the ADA factor in to assessing the ability of the employee to perform the essential functions of the position?

5. What happens when FMLA is exhausted, and the employee cannot return to work?

6. Does FMLA come in to play for work-related absence situations?

7. What are the limits on getting information from the employee’s health care provider to determine if they have a “serious health condition” under the FMLA?

8. What does “reasonable accommodation” really mean in addressing workplace needs or wants for employees with limitations on their ability to work? We hope you can join us for this interactive program.
