Jackson Hole Summit

Jackson Hole Summit was a conference on economic policy held from August 27-29, 2015, in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, to advocate for hard money monetary policies and an end to government involvement in the money supply.[1] The summit aimed to be a conservative, hard money counterpoint[2] to the annual Economic Policy Symposium at Jackson Hole sponsored by the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City.[3] The summit was funded through a nonprofit group called the American Principles Project.[4] According to associates of hedge fund CEO Robert Mercer interviewed by Bloomberg, Mercer was the main financial backer of the Jackson Hole Summit.[4]
