CFP: Critical macro-finance session at EAEPE 2020

Critical macro-finance and international financial hierarchies in the Basel III world.
EAEPE annual conference in Bilbao, 2-4 September 2020.


Steffen Murau and colleagues are organising a special session on critical macro-finance in Bilbao this year as part of EAEPE 2020.

The introduction of the Basel III regulations has changed the institutional setup and dynamics of the monetary and financial system from scratch (Pozsar 2017). While this is true in the United States, it has spill-over effects to the rest of the world, in particular to Europe. The purpose of this special session is to bring together academics and practitioners with different disciplinary backgrounds to empirically explore the ongoing institutional changes that constitute the “new normal” of the currently emerging Basel III regime and analyze the potential implications of these changes for financial stability and macroeconomic performance.

The application deadline is  1 April 2020. The full call for papers is available here.
