2. Central Banking and Green Finance
Submission Deadline: September 17, 2017
Workshop: November 28-29, 2017, Amsterdam, Netherlands
BACKGROUND: When the Leaders of the G20 met in China in 2016 they highlighted the necessity to scale up green financing. They also endorsed efforts to "provide clear strategic policy signals and frameworks" to target this objective. The question to what extent central banks can and should contribute t this momentum is moving up policy agendas worldwide.
Against this background, the Council on Economic Policies and De Nederlandsche Bank are organizing a workshop on "Central Banking and Green Finance". The event will convene researchers from academia, central banks, and other non-academic research institutions on November 28-29, 2017 in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
TOPICS: We are particularly interested in the following topics, but will also consider papers that deal with related issues that are not specifically mentioned below.
- What are current impediments in financial markets for a significant expansion of green finance? What are the levers within their mandates that central banks have to help overcome these impediments?
- What is the role of central banks and financial supervisors in the transition to a low carbon economy? How can these institutions best facilitate this transition?
- How do monetary policy instruments (e.g. policy rates, collateral frameworks and quantitative easing) and financial regulation (e.g. capital requirements, disclosure rules) influence capital flows into different sectors? Through which transmission channels do these effects emerge? Are there sector biases in these effects?
- Are there alternatives to the current design of conventional and unconventional monetary policy instruments and financial regulation that would be better aligned with the goal of scaling up green finance? What are potential consequences of these measures for the effectiveness of monetary policy?
- What is the effect of green finance instruments (such as green bonds) on green investments? Specifically, what is the effect on the funding costs and the quantity of green investments?
PAPER SUBMISSION PROCEDURE: Papers should be submitted by September 17 to monetary@cepweb.org. We have a preference for completed papers, but will also consider preliminary versions.
IMPORTANT DATES:
- September 17, 2017: Submission deadline
- October 13, 2017: Participant selection
- November 15, 2017: Deadline for final papers
- November 28-29, 2017: Workshop

4. CEAR/MRIC Behavioral Insurance Workshop 2017
December 6 and 7, 2017, Center for the Economic Analysis of Risk, (http://cear.gsu.edu), Georgia State University, Atlanta
OVERVIEW: This workshop brings together researchers interested in the manner in which risk management and insurance can be understood with behavioral methods. Alternative theoretical models are welcome, although analyses that are disconnected from theory are not. We expect researchers from a variety of disciplines will find this workshop of interest, including economics, finance, risk management, insurance, accounting, and psychology. This workshop is held jointly with the Center for the Economic Analysis of Risk (CEAR) and the Munich Risk and Insurance Center (MRIC), alternating from year to year between sunny Atlanta and sunny Munich. This is the 8th workshop in this series and will be held at Georgia State University in Atlanta.
For each paper we typically allocate one hour (40 min. presentation, 10 min. discussion by the discussant, 10 min. general discussion) to provide participants with the opportunity for an in-depth presentation of their work. If possible all sessions will be plenary, but there may be one or two parallel sessions if needed.
The primary keynote address will be given by Assistant Professor Ben Handel from the University of California, Berkeley: http://eml.berkeley.edu/~bhandel. His research focuses on the microeconomics of consumer choice and market structure in the health care sector, with an emphasis on health insurance markets. His most recent research has emphasized the role that consumer choice frictions, such as inertia and limited information, can have when assessing the welfare outcomes of different regulatory policies in health insurance markets. In addition, his work studies incentive design and adoption of information technology by medical providers. Ben has partnered with a range of large firms and policy organizations in the health care sector to study questions in these areas.
This year the Behavioral Insurance Workshop will overlap for one day, by design, with another annual workshop co-sponsored by CEAR on Behavioral and Experimental Health Economics. The keynote address for the Behavioral and Experimental Health Economics workshop will also be given on the overlap day and will be given by Professor Judd Kessler from the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania: http://assets.wharton.upenn.edu/~juddk. In his research, he uses a combination of laboratory and field experiments to answer questions in Public Economics and market design. He investigates the economic and psychological forces that motivate individuals to contribute to public goods, with applications including organ donation, worker effort, and charitable giving. He also investigates market design innovations, placing particular emphasis on bringing the market design from theory to practice, with applications including course allocation and priority systems for organ allocation.
FUNDING: CEAR will provide travel support and cover local expenses for participants that are presenting papers or acting as discussants. The usual university guidelines apply, although we can provide extra nights of support for overseas visitors if needed.
There will be a modest charge for participants that are not presenting papers or are members of the Scientific Committee. This is to cover some fraction of catering and dinner costs. This charge will be noted on the participation link when that is set up.
PAPER SUBMISSION PROCEDURE: If you are interested in presenting a paper, please submit either the full paper (if available), or an extended abstract that addresses objectives, methods, results, and conclusions. All submissions should be in PDF. Submissions should be made by Monday, September 4 at http://cear.gsu.edu/call-papers-behavioral-insurance-2017. Authors will be notified regarding the acceptance of their paper by Monday, October 2 at the latest.
5. The 5th Workshop on Behavioral and Experimental Health Economics
December 7 and 8, 2017, Center for the Economic Analysis of Risk, (http://cear.gsu.edu) , Georgia State University, Atlanta
OVERVIEW: Following the success of previous workshops in Oslo, Hamilton, Essen, and Cologne, we are pleased to host the 5th Workshop on Behavioral and Experimental Health Economics in Atlanta. The workshop brings together economists who apply behavioral economics and experimental methods in health economics research to present and discuss their research papers. We also welcome researchers from related fields, such as Public Health, Epidemiology and Medicine. We welcome contributions on all topics within health economics using experimental methods and behavioral economics applications.
For each paper, we typically allocate one hour (40 min. presentation, 10 min. discussion by the discussant, 10 min. general discussion) to provide participants with the opportunity for an in-depth presentation of their work. If possible all sessions will be plenary, but there may be one or two parallel sessions if needed.
The primary keynote address will be given by Professor Judd Kessler from the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania:http://assets.wharton.upenn.edu/~juddk. Judd received a B.A. in Economics from Harvard University in 2004, an M.Phil. in Economics from Cambridge University in 2005, and a Ph.D. in Business Economics from Harvard University in 2011. In his research, he uses a combination of laboratory and field experiments to answer questions in Public Economics and market design. He investigates the economic and psychological forces that motivate individuals to contribute to public goods, with applications including organ donation, worker effort, and charitable giving. He also investigates market design innovations, placing particular emphasis on bringing the market design from theory to practice, with applications including course allocation and priority systems for organ allocation.
This year the Workshop on Behavioral and Experimental Health Economics will overlap for one day, by design, with another annual workshop co-sponsored by CEAR on Behavioral Insurance. The reason is that the topics overlap, and this provides an opportunity for intellectual arbitrage. The keynote address for the Behavioral Insurance workshop will also be given on the overlap day and will be given by Professor Ben Handel from the Department of Economics at the University of California at Berkeley: http://eml.berkeley.edu/~bhandel. He received an A.B. in Economics from Princeton in 2004, a Ph.D. in Economics from Northwestern University in 2010, and completed a postdoctoral fellowship with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation in 2011. His research focuses on the microeconomics of consumer choice and market structure in the health care sector, with an emphasis on health insurance markets. His most recent research has emphasized the role that consumer choice frictions, such as inertia and limited information, can have when assessing the welfare outcomes of different regulatory policies in health insurance markets. In addition, his work studies incentive design and adoption of information technology by medical providers. Ben has partnered with a range of large firms and policy organizations in the health care sector to study questions in these areas.
