Join MAGNY for a forward-looking discussion of how U.S. fiscal federalism is adapting to new realities. Building on the "New Federalism" legacy of the 1960s to 1980s, today's system faces renewed pressure to consolidate and decentralize. Panelists will share their perspectives on how fiscal relationships are evolving across different levels of government, what these challenges mean for municipal credit, and implications for the broader municipal market. Attendees should come away with a clearer understanding of the forces reshaping intergovernmental finance and the challenges facing state and local governments as they assume greater fiscal responsibility.
