The Money and Finance Research Group (MoFiR) is pleased to announce that the next workshop will be held in Varese (Italy) on July 7-8, 2026. The workshop is co-sponsored by the Università degli Studi dell'Insubria and the European Commission's Joint Research Centre. The organising committee of this small informal workshop invites submissions of high-quality theoretical and empirical research on financial intermediation. Scholars in the fields of banking and finance will meet to discuss current issues in banking, financial stability, bank regulation, financial innovation, financial inclusion, and consumer credit. The workshop provides an opportunity for discussions about policy-relevant research in an informal and interactive environment.
The keynote speaker will be Steven Ongena, professor of banking in the Department of Finance at the University of Zurich and CEPR Fellow.
PhD students: The conference will include a Poster Session for Ph.D. students working on financial intermediation.
The workshop will include an additional half-day on July 6 on “Financial linkages and geopolitical risks”, with invited papers.
Accommodation costs (up to three nights) for presenters and invited discussants will be reimbursed. There is no conference fee, and all meals are included. CEPR may be able to offer limited travel support for PhD students without budget, subject to the availability of funds and in line with CEPR’s travel guidelines.
