Euro and Social Dialogue, Financial Stability, Financial Services and Capital Markets Union Vice President Valdis Dombrovskis (pictured) is in Riga on 7 and 8 January.

He will give a keynote address, participate in a panel discussion and make closing remarks at the conference Five Years with the Euro. The fifth anniversary of Latvia joining the euro coincides with the 20th birthday of the common currency in 2019. The conference to mark this occasion, organized by the European Commission, allows policy makers, experts and civil society representatives to draw lessons from the journey so far and offer forward-looking ideas for the deepening of the European Monetary Union.

It also marks the start of a series of Citizens' Dialogues in Member States to mark the anniversary of the euro. The event will be opened by Māris Kučinskis, Prime Minister of Latvia; speakers include European Central Bank Vice-President Luis de Guindos, Deputy Secretary General of the European Commission Ilze Juhansone, Deputy Director-General of DG FISMA John Berrigan and Bundesbank Executive Board Member Burkhard Balz.
