From the organizers:
The 22nd American Monetary Institute (AMI) conference builds on prior AMI conferences. For example, on Friday evening Professor Yamaguchi, the world’s foremost systems-dynamics modeler of monetary systems, will answer questions about his co-authored 2024 book, Public Money, which he presented on at AMI last year and the publisher has discounted the e-book of for this year’s conference. Professor Yamaguchi’s work on Japan and the US serves as an important model for monetary thinkers everywhere. AMI will co-host a reading group on this book this winter, so get your copy now.
Scholars Steve Keen, Michael Hudson, Joseph Huber, Richard Robbins, Oliver Heydorn, and Sam Hummel will also build upon their previous work, including past AMI presentations. Their work informs academics and citizens about how the current money and finance systems act and crucial reforms for them.
To create strategies for introducing new people and organizations to monetary reform as well as sharing ideas to build better money and payment systems for our own countries, Howard Switzer, Robert Ndubi, Brian Winters, Richard Cook, Martijn van der Linden, Loke Hagberg and Mark Young of the International Movement for Monetary Reform’s CORE leadership team, and Research and Policy Committee members of the Alliance For Just Money will share about their work.

Speakers, schedule, and presentation materials can also be found on this AMI Events page, where session recordings will also be posted a few weeks after. Most sessions will end with time for Q&A, and Saturday and Sunday will conclude with social time. The lack of women presenters in 2026 is regrettable and was not for not trying. AMI looks forward to correcting this shortcoming in 2027 and welcomes proposals.
