Financial Shocks, Channels, and Macro Outcomes

The goal of the BSE Summer Forum Workshop on Financial Shocks, Channels, and Macro Outcomes is to discuss recent developments in research on the real effects of financial shocks and frictions.

We are particularly interested in applied theoretical and empirical work on the interplay between finance, micro- and macroshocks, and their short-run and long-run effects.

We encourage submissions addressing issues including (but not limited to):

• Financial frictions, bank lending, and the real effects of the misallocation of credit
• Micro data (on finance and real outcomes) for macro questions
• Links between monetary policy, asset prices, and credit, and their macroeconomic implications
• Climate risk, finance and the transition to a sustainable economy
• Credit booms, asset prices, and macro outcomes
• Finance, innovation, productivity, and growth
• Distribution of financial assets and macroeconomic amplification
