Economic & Financial Networks

Networks are everywhere in economic and financial systems, serving as useful representations of liabilities markets, labor markets, international trade, and more. Recent events from the 2007-2008 Global Financial Crisis to the Covid-19 pandemic and high-profile failures at cryptocurrency exchanges have underscored the high level of interconnection that characterizes these systems. Network science has long studied the systemic risks that arise in that this interconnection can lead to market collapses, supply disruptions, and labor shortages. Researchers active in the field also devise strategies to improve the stability, resilience, and wellbeing of economic and financial systems through a fruitful interplay of basic research and policy applications. The field has produced effective tools to understand and predict patterns of economic development and innovation, financial system transformations, illicit activities, labor market dynamics, and the energy transition. Rapidly emerging digital technologies and novel sources of data on financial and economic systems have received considerable attention.

This workshop, a satellite meeting of NetSci2025,  returns for the tenth edition after being hosted by StatPhys26, NetSci2017, NetSci2018, NetSci2019, NetSciX2020, NetSci2020, CCS2022, NetSci2023, CCS2023, NetSci2024, CCS2024. The event aims at bringing together researchers active in studying economic and financial networks to discuss state-of-the-art work in the field, share knowledge across disciplines, and create opportunities for novel and fruitful collaborations.
