The Swedish House of Finance's Annual Conference brings together leading academics and practitioners in the field of financial economics to discuss important, and current topics.
This year’s conference focus on the effects of new geopolitical risks on financial markets and firms. Pandemics, climate risks, wars, and sanctions have increased the relevance of geopolitical risks. Over the next few years, these shocks will have effects on international currencies, supply chains, financial markets, and the macroeconomy.
The conference will discuss how to measure the new risks, which companies and assets are likely to be more exposed to, and evidence of the effects of these shocks.
