6th Workshop on Financial Econometrics and Empirical Modeling of Financial Markets
Nowadays Central banks must navigate several challenges simultaneously, adapting their policies to address unforeseen crises, geopolitical turmoil, and long-term environmental issues. The role of central banks is expanding beyond traditional economic stabilization, requiring them to consider broader global risks and work in coordination with fiscal and regulatory authorities to ensure economic resilience in an ever-changing world. Monetary policy, as a flexible and adaptable tool, is essential in addressing the complex interplay of these critical factors. The different challenges have in common that monetary policy also needs to adjust and develop tools to accommodate the increasing uncertainty surrounding the future path of inflation and the real economy. This workshop attempts to bring together researchers from different areas to address these challenges. We invite researchers to present their original work on related topics including, but not necessarily limited to, the following: Monetary policy in a high inflation environment Change in monetary policy and financial market effects Inflation expectation in a high inflation regime Geopolitical tensions, inflation and monetary policy Monetary policy transmission in times of uncertainty and the role of financial markets Macroeconomic effects of uncertainty and geopolitical risk Central bank communication and financial markets Green central banking and green finance Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) Spillover effects in expectations and uncertainty Date and Venue: The workshop will be held on October 22 and 23, 2026 at the FernUniversität in Hagen, Campus Berlin. The venue is the Berlin Campus of the FernUniversität in Hagen (Kurfürstendamm 21, D-10719 Berlin). Program: TBA Organizing Committee: Robert L.

6th Global Economic Policy Workshop: The Economics of Geopolitical Fragmentation
The global economic order is undergoing profound transformation as geopolitical tensions increasingly reshape international trade, finance, investment, technology, and global governance. After decades of deepening global integration, the world economy is now characterised by growing fragmentation, reflected in the reorganisation of supply chains, the emergence of competing technological ecosystems, the increasing use of sanctions and export controls, and the formation of economic blocs with diverging strategic priorities. The 6th Global Economic Policy Group Workshop, titled The Economics of Geopolitical Fragmentation, will take place on 25–26 September 2026 at the Goethe Institut, Budapest, Hungary. The workshop is organised by the Global Economic Policy Group in collaboration with the University of Westminster, FernUniversität in Hagen, and the Goethe Institut. The workshop aims to bring together researchers working on the economic implications of geopolitical fragmentation and related topics in international economics and finance. It welcomes theoretical, empirical, and policy-oriented contributions addressing issues such as geopolitical risk, trade and investment fragmentation, technological decoupling, sanctions and economic statecraft, global supply chains, international monetary and financial system fragmentation, emerging markets, and global economic governance. Selected papers presented at the workshop will be considered for a special issue of the International Journal of Finance and Economics. Submissions of extended abstracts or full papers should be sent to k.jackson@westminster.ac.uk by 15 July 2026. There is no fee payable to attend the workshop.

Geopolitical Alignment, Tensions, and the Global Economy (Measurement and Evidence)
Call for papers Université Paris-Nanterre, Friday, December 4, 2026 Geopolitical Alignment, Tensions, and the Global Economy (Measurement and Evidence) The workshop Geopolitical Alignment, Tensions, and the Global Economy (Measurement and Evidence) is scheduled to occur at the Université Paris-Nanterre. The date of the workshop is Friday, December 4, 2026. The purpose of holding this workshop is to enable different researchers from the social sciences to meet and present new developments related to measurements, models, and empirical studies associated with the evolution of the measurement of geopolitical alignment, and its consequences for the global economy. Geopolitical dynamics increasingly shape global economic patterns. The use of strategic competition, changes in alliances, conflict and cooperation patterns, trade and financial fragmentation, and changes in institutional settings increasingly influence economic growth, trade, financial flows, inflation, and development paths. By contrast, significant progress has been made in measures to construct quantitative proxies for geopolitical alignment, tension, and conflict, as well as methods to econometrically capture patterns of interdependence, spillovers, and non-linearities in these dynamics. This workshop seeks to offer a platform for these findings to be showcased. Contributions from any area of the social sciences are invited, including economics, political science, international relations, geography, and other related areas, as long as they adopt a quantitative perspective. Completed papers are invited, including preliminary papers presenting original research still in progress. Keynote Speakers This workshop will include two keynote lectures: Erik Voeten, Peter F. Krogh Professor of Geopolitics and Justice in World Affairs, Georgetown University, United States. Rodolphe Desbordes, Professor of Economics and Director of the Global Risks Center at SKEMA Business School, France. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: - Measurement of geopolitical alignment, tensions, and conflicts - Text, linguistic, and perception-related methods for measuring geopolitical tensions - The study of interstate conflict has been fueled by the development of various indices - Geopolitical rivalry and strategic competition - Trade, finance, and the global value chain in the context of geopolitical tensions.docx - Mercantilism, Protectionism, and World Economic Fragmentation - Regional interdependence, spill-overs, and growth dynamics - Maritime geopolitical issues and strategic routes - Economic sanctions, economic war, and economics of war - Dedollarization and the evolution of the international monetary system - Structural transformation of the global economy under stress from geopolitics There will be 8 contributed papers, divided into 4 in the morning and 4 in the afternoon, aside from the two keynote lectures. This will guarantee a high level of interaction. The selection process for the papers shall be relatively selective. Submission and timeline Submission deadline: 31st of May 2026 Notice of acceptance: 28th of June 2026 Confirmation of Participation: Early September 2026 Date of the workshop: December 4, 2026 Submissions of complete papers can be sent to the following email address in PDF format to Jamel Saadaoui at the following email address: jamelsaadaoui@gmail.com.
