SEACEN-ASB Webinar Series: Spillovers At The Extreme

In this seminar Professor Chari will present her recent paper (joint with Karlye Dilts Stedman, Kristin Forbes) that explores the relationship between macroprudential stance and vulnerability to the global financial cycle by using a policy-shocks approach that corrects for reverse causality by combining high-frequency risk measures with weekly data on portfolio investment and a new measure of macroprudential regulations that captures the intensity of policy stances. The findings highlight that macroprudential regulation can reduce the volume and volatility of bank flows but shift risks in ways that aggravate vulnerabilities in other parts of the financial system.

Join us for a talk by Anusha Chari (UNC) on the spillovers at the extremes discussing the macroprudential stance and vulnerability to the global financial cycle.
