The Seventh Workshop in Macro Banking and Finance will take place at Collegio Carlo Alberto, University of Torino, on October 3-4, 2019. The workshop continues the tradition of yearly meetings among macro-monetary, banking, and financial economists, kindly sponsored by Unicredit Foundation. Its goal is to promote synergies and foster interaction between researchers and institutions.

 

Antonella Trigari (Università Bocconi) and Josef Zechner (WU Vienna) will deliver the invited lectures.
