IMF Conference
June 12-13, 2014
De Nederlandsche Bank (DNB), International Monetary Fund (IMF), and the IMF Economic Review are organizing a conference on "International Banking: Microfoundations and Macroeconomic Implications." The conference will be hosted by De Nederlandsche Bank on June 12–13, 2014.
The conference will provide a forum for researchers to discuss innovative ways to measure and model how the activities of internationally active banks interact with the real economy. Both empirical and theoretical submissions are encouraged, especially those that that link micro-data or micro-founded models of bank behavior with macroeconomic outcomes or aggregates.
For questions regarding the conference, please send an email to Banking2014@imf.org.
