Graeme Blackett Appointed New Chair of Scottish Think-Tank "Prosper"
type: NewsArticle
title: Graeme Blackett Appointed New Chair of Scottish Think-Tank "Prosper"
description: Blackett, a leading economist from Scotland, in a statement coinciding with his appointment, has stressed the need for unity among politicians, business leaders, and civic society to support the tens of thousands of vulnerable individuals experiencing financial distress in the country. Blackett, founder of the Edinburgh-based consultancy BiGGAR Economics, noted that "There has been low productivity and limited growth in the UK and Scottish economies for two decades". He pointed out that many individuals are struggling to meet their basic needs. However, he expressed optimism regarding potential opportunities in energy transition and emerging technologies like AI, urging collective action to navigate these challenges and capitalize on them. "Complexity requires collaboration. We need everyone to work together to identify what needs to be done, and then to do it," he said. Blackett's comments were made in the context of latest figures showing that a staggering 80% of businesses anticipating weak or very weak growth in the Scottish economy over the next year, according to the latest Scottish Business Monitor by Strathclyde University’s Fraser of Allander Institute. Blackett's appointment at Prosper takes on a particular relevance in 2026, which will see the Scottish Parliament elections taking place in May. On this topic, Blackett added that: "Politicians often talk about economic policy in terms of pulling levers. However, the economy has no control room and it is not a machine. Nevertheless, everything that politicians do matters to the economy — all policy has consequences, sometimes intended and sometimes unintended." Founded in 1931 during a time of great economic uncertainty, Prosper is a membership organisation that aims to bring together diverse sectors to devise strategies for economic growth in Scotland.

Abdolnasser Hemmati Reappointed as Governor of Central Bank of Iran
type: NewsArticle
title: Abdolnasser Hemmati Reappointed as Governor of Central Bank of Iran
description: Tehran, IRNA – Abdolnasser Hemmati has reportedly been reappointed as the governor of the Central Bank of Iran (CBI). This announcement follows the acceptance of Mohammadreza Farzin's resignation by President Masoud Pezeshkian earlier today. The 67-year-old economist and politician, Hemmati, previously held the position of CBI governor from 2018 until May 2021 and was also the minister of economy in the current and former Iranian administrations. His career has been marked by significant political engagement, including a run as a reformist candidate during the 2021 presidential elections, in which he came third. His candidacy was rejected in the 2024 presidential election by Iran's Guardian Council, which must approve candidates. Despite his extensive experience, Hemmati's previous role as the economy minister was cut short when he was impeached by parliament on March 2, 2025. His reinstatement as CBI governor signifies a pivotal return as the nation continues to navigate economic challenges. Hemmati’s appointment will be finalized after receiving approval from the Cabinet and a presidential decree, expected to be put forward in the upcoming cabinet meeting on Wednesday. The change at the top of the CBI is made in the context of growing public concerns, including protests, about inflation and the high cost of living. The move highlights the ongoing adjustments within the Iranian economic administration as the country seeks stability amidst these ongoing financial, political and social pressures.

The Intuition Behind Regression Analysis
type: Article
title: The Intuition Behind Regression Analysis
description: It’s all about the variance The basic question behind many regression analyses is: how much does x affect y? Or, stated another way: when x changes, how much does y change as a result? This is a great way to think about what a regression is attempting to do. In essence, a regression measures how much of y’s variation results from x varying, ignoring the variation in other regressors (the Frisch-Waugh Theorem illustrates how a regression can isolate the effect of a single variable on y, but that’s beyond the scope of this article). The regression attributes whatever variation in y that x explains to a coefficient (usually denoted by a lower case beta symbol: 𝛽), and whatever variation x can’t explain to a term we call the “error”. Finally, statistics are computed that tell us how unlikely it is that the effect of x on y is due to random chance — if it’s very unlikely, we call it a “statistically significant” result. An example: Let’s consider high-end TV sales as our y variable, and “income of consumers” as the x variable. How should consumer income affect the sales of high-end TVs? Clearly, the wealthier people are, the more likely they are to spend money on a nice TV — or even multiple TVs. Therefore we’d expect a positive relationship between x and y. After gathering TV sales data and running our regression, if more TVs seem to be sold when consumers in the area have higher incomes (or after their incomes increase), we have some good evidence to support our hypothesis. The 𝛽 coefficient on the x variable “consumer income” might be statistically significant, and it can indicate by how much exactly an increase in income is expected to affect TV sales. This might sound straightforward, but much is happening “under the hood”. Before diving into some more complex scenarios, let’s draw a picture so we can visualize what’s happening when a regression is run. The geometry of regression analysis You’ve seen plenty of graphs in math classes before, with y on the vertical ax…
disambiguating description: Regression analysis is a key topic in economics, data science, and computer science, but its roots go further back than these disciplines. Sir Francis Galton is credited with the term, after studying the heights of parents and their children, and noticing that those heights tended to “regress” back towards the mean. That name became associated with this type of analysis, and has stuck, even though a more accurate name might have been something like “variance analysis”. We’ve written previously about what a regression analysis is. If you’re completely new to the idea of a regression, that’s a good place to start. In this article, we’ll look more closely at this tool in the data scientist’s, economist’s and statistician’s toolbox, to understand exactly what’s happening when we run one.

The award was announced in a press release by Soka University. The ISFJ aims to foster a better society through student-created policy proposals, with participation from 116 teams across 25 universities nationwide. After a thorough review by experts, awards were presented to teams whose work was deemed outstanding. The Kanazawa Seminar, which took part in the Labor and Employment subcommittee, delivered a compelling presentation focused on "Promoting Women's Participation - Considering the Paternity Leave System for Men." Their research highlighted the imbalance in domestic responsibilities that impede women's career advancement. Through empirical analysis and interviews, they examined how the paternity leave system could positively affect men's involvement in childcare and housework. Based on their findings, the team advocated for the promotion of paternity leave for men as a means to foster an environment where women can succeed professionally. Their rigorous research and innovative proposals received high praise from the panel of experts. A member of the winning team remarked, "It was challenging to coordinate discussions around our various commitments, but we succeeded by leveraging each member's strengths. We aspire for our research to enhance women's participation in society." The achievement of the Kanazawa Seminar underscores the proactive role that students can play in addressing critical social issues, affirming their commitment to making significant contributions to policy development.

UK to Join Erasmus+ Programme in 2027
type: NewsArticle
title: UK to Join Erasmus+ Programme in 2027
description: The UK and EU have successfully negotiated terms for the UK to rejoin the Erasmus+ programme in 2027, allowing young people from various backgrounds to access opportunities for study and training abroad. This agreement was announced by the UK government in a press release, and delivers on commitments made during the UK-EU Summit earlier this year. Erasmus+ offers educational and training opportunities not just for students in higher education, but also for apprentices, further education students, sports clubs and adult learners. It is estimated that over 100,000 individuals in the UK could benefit from the programme in its inaugural year. The UK Minister for EU Relations, Nick Thomas-Symonds, emphasised the significance of this initiative, stating that it aims to break down barriers and widen horizons for all young people, ensuring that everyone can access transformative educational experiences. Moreover, the UK has agreed to a reduced contribution for the first year, amounting to approximately £570 million for the 2027/28 academic year. This is 30% lower than the cost envisaged by the Trade and Cooperation agreement from earlier this year. Despite the reduced cost, full participation benefits are guaranteed for UK taxpayers. Earlier this year, the European Commission proposed an expansion of the Erasmus+ scheme as part of its Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF) for 2028-2034, including an intention to increase the budget by around 50%. As such, an extension of the agreement for the UK beyond 2028 would need a new agreement on the UK's level of financial contribution in the context of the increased overall budget. Aside from Erasmus+, discussions on energy market integration and a food and drink trade deal have also progressed, indicating a favourable shift in UK-EU relations that addresses broader public priorities. The UK government has already created a page with more information, including eligibility and timescales at https://www.gov.uk/guidance/the-erasmus-p…

title: PhD position in Energy Economics - Economic Theory
description: Start date: 1 September 2026 Project and funding framework We invite applications for a PhD position at UCLouvain, starting 1 September 2026 or as soon as possible thereafter. The position is funded by the Fonds Spéciaux de Recherche (FSR) of UCLouvain and is offered for an initial period of 24 months, renewable once, subject to satisfactory progress. The doctoral project is embedded in an FSR-funded research project on the design of auction-based support mechanisms for renewable energy deployment in Europe, carried out at the Louvain Institute of Data Analysis and Modeling in Economics and Statistics (LIDAM). The project focuses on the theoretical analysis and design of auction-based support mechanisms for renewable energy, drawing on tools from industrial organization, auction theory, and mechanism design. It examines how government support schemes can be improved to enhance competition, reduce project abandonment, and foster innovation. The research will analyse key design features of renewable energy auctions, including pre-qualification requirements, the use of non-price award criteria, and risk-sharing support contracts. The theoretical framework may be calibrated using techno-economic data and complemented by laboratory experiments to assess market outcomes in more realistic settings. The project aims to generate policy-relevant insights for the design of renewable energy support schemes at the European level.

title: New Finance Books in 2025
description: If you are looking for a good read for yourself, or a present for a loved one, this is INOMICS pick of new Finance books published in 2025. Whether you are a student of finance, a professional in the field, or a lay-person looking to make good investment decisions, our selection contains something for everyone: from books diving into global financial systems, to personal finance guides, financial history books, and finance textbooks. New Books on Global Financial Systems and Financial Psychology 2025 Fixed: Why Personal Finance Is Broken and How to Make It Work for Everyone by John Y. Campbell & Tarun Ramadorai October 21, 2025 Two leading economists reveal why today’s personal finance markets are rigged against us and offer practical steps to fix them John Campbell and Tarun Ramadorai diagnose the ills of today’s personal finance markets in the United States and across the globe, looking at everything from short-term saving and borrowing to loans for education and housing, financial products for retirement, and insurance. They show how the system is “fixed” to benefit those who are wealthy and more educated while encouraging financial mistakes by those who aren’t, making it difficult for regular consumers to make sound financial decisions and disadvantaging them in some of the most consequential economic transactions of their lives. Campbell and Ramadorai describe how some even opt out of the financial system altogether, relying on unregulated and often shady mechanisms to implement necessary financial functions, with dire consequences for individuals, families, and the economy more broadly. With the explosive growth of the global middle class, longer lifespans, and greater numbers of seniors managing their money alone, the pitfalls of personal finance now affect billions of people around the world. Fixed proposes concrete solutions that harness the expertise of economists, the power of government, and the speed of technology to restore fairness and trust in our br…

Econometric Society Announces Winter Meeting Best Paper Award
type: NewsArticle
title: Econometric Society Announces Winter Meeting Best Paper Award
description: December 8, 2025 — At the 2025 European Winter Meeting of the Econometric Society held from December 7 to 9 in Nicosia, Cyprus, the winners of the Best Paper Award have been announced: Geraud Desazars, a current PhD Student at the Università Bocconi in Italy, was recognised for his paper on “Growing through capital”. The paper presents a general equilibrium framework to explain why large firms tend to be more capital-intensive than their competitors, highlighting their ability to adopt external innovations rather than creating innovations themselves. As capital costs decrease, firms with lower switching costs can adopt more capital-intensive technologies, thereby increasing market shares and markups, which in turn accounts for various economic phenomena such as rising markup dispersion and the divergence between sales and employment concentration. Lavinia Kinne and Virginia Sondergeld of DIW Berlin were honored with their project, titled "Meet my family: women in leadership and gender stereotypes in the media," which addresses critical issues surrounding gender representation in leadership roles. The authors conducted an analysis of media coverage regarding women on the executive and supervisory boards of DAX companies, reviewing approximately 45,000 newspaper articles from three prominent German daily newspapers. The findings reveal that media narratives about female and male board members are laden with gender stereotypes; coverage of female executives predominantly emphasizes family roles and caregiving, while male counterparts are portrayed as powerful leaders. Moreover, Kinne and Sondergeld employed a survey experiment that illustrated how these stereotypical portrayals of female CEOs can significantly affect readers' expectations and financial decisions regarding the companies led by these executives. Lavinia Kinne is a postdoctoral researcher in the Public Economics Department at DIW Berlin. Virginia Sondergeld is a former research associate and PhD student a…

Brendan Nelson Appointed as HSBC Group Chair

title: Brendan Nelson Appointed as HSBC Group Chair
description: HSBC made the Announcement on Wednesday (3 December), with the appointment effective immediately. Nelson has been serving as the interim Group Chair since October 1, 2025, after joining the Board in September 2023. The decision to appoint Nelson follows an extensive selection process that included various internal and external candidates. However, it has come as a surprise to many, considering that as recently as Tuesday HSBC CEO Georges Elhedery had said at the FT Global Banking Summit in London that Nelson had expressed a desire not to take on the chairman's job on a permanent basis, given the current stage of his career. Nelson is 76. Despite the raised eyebrows, HSBC is positive about the appointment. Ann Godbehere, the Senior Independent Non-executive Director, and a member of the board, expressed her confidence in Nelson’s leadership abilities, stating, “On behalf of the Board, I am delighted with Brendan’s appointment as our Group Chair. Since assuming the role of interim Group Chair, Brendan has demonstrated his excellent leadership capabilities backed by his strong banking and governance credentials.” Brendan Nelson boasts an extensive career in financial services, having previously led the Global Financial Services Practice at KPMG, where he advised and audited international banks. His experience also includes serving on the Boards of prominent companies including BP, RBS, and HSBC itself. Upon his appointment, Nelson expressed his honor in taking on the role, stating, “I look forward to continuing to work with the Board, Georges, and the wider management team as we deliver on our strategic and financial objectives.” He will continue to serve as the Chairman of the Group Audit Committee until the publication of HSBC's Annual Results for 2025, expected in February next year. The Board also noted that details regarding Nelson’s successor as Chairman of the Group Audit Committee would be provided in due course. Image Credits: hsbc.com (free use for editorial …

Whether for yourself or as a gift, the selection below has something for everyone! 1) Political / Economic Commentaries Exploring political, environmental and social challenges from an economics perspective, these new books are up-to-date and relevant for issues facing global society. Often critical of political elites and economic structures, these new releases provide a provocative yet informed and academically sound basis to approach current affairs. Abundance by Ezra Klein & Derek Thompson Published: March 18, 2025 Description: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • ONE OF BARACK OBAMA’S FAVORITE BOOKS OF 2025 From bestselling authors and journalistic titans Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson, Abundance is a once-in-a-generation, paradigm-shifting call to renew a politics of plenty, face up to the failures of liberal governance, and abandon the chosen scarcities that have deformed American life. To trace the history of the twenty-first century so far is to trace a history of unaffordability and shortage. After years of refusing to build sufficient housing, America has a national housing crisis. After years of limiting immigration, we don’t have enough workers. Despite decades of being warned about the consequences of climate change, we haven’t built anything close to the clean-energy infrastructure we need. Ambitious public projects are finished late and over budget—if they are ever finished at all. The crisis that’s clicking into focus now has been building for decades—because we haven’t been building enough. Abundance explains that our problems today are not the results of yesteryear’s villains. Rather, one generation’s solutions have become the next gener­ation’s problems. Rules and regulations designed to solve the problems of the 1970s often prevent urban-density and green-energy projects that wou…
