Risk Economics Participated in the Federal Reserve Day Ahead Conference on Financial Markets and Institutions

The Federal Reserve System employs a large number of economists whose primary research interests relate to financial markets and financial institutions. The goals of the “Day Ahead” conference series are twofold:  the presentation of papers by financial economists within the Federal Reserve System, and building ties with economists outside the System. The organizers view this conference as a mechanism to establish a stronger community of financial economists.
