Climate Change and the Environment

The CEPR Climate Change and The Environment programme aims to bring together a diverse community of economists working on pressing issues concerning energy, climate change, biodiversity, air and water pollution, and other critical environmental and natural resource issues. The goal is to provide a productive environment for researchers to develop their research agendas from the perspective of their core fields and create deeper synergies and linkages between the research groups, given the systemic nature of these challenges. The group is formed by existing members of CEPR as well as new members who expand our knowledge and expertise on core climate and environmental areas.

Among other topics, we will address:

Economic effects of environmental and climate impacts and policies on firms and households
Inequality implications of environmental and climate impacts and policies within and across countries
Economic assessment of the costs and benefits of mitigation and decarbonisation efforts
Adaptation to extreme weather events and other climate impacts
Adaptation and public health management of pollution
Risks and insurance with a growing climate uncertainty
Innovation and R&D policies surrounding environmental and climate policies
International cooperation for mitigation and adaptation
Quantifying the causes and consequences of biodiversity loss and its environmental impacts
The political economy of environmental and climate policies
Market design for energy, climate and environmental policies
Finance focused on sustainability and decarbonisation

Banking and Corporate Finance

The Banking and Corporate Finance programme brings together researchers interested in all areas of banking and corporate finance and related strands of research.

CEPR has a long history of promoting research in financial economics. The Financial Economics programme has recently split in two; Banking and Corporate Finance (BCF) and Asset Pricing (AP), to provide more targeted conferences and interactions.

Key areas covered by the Banking and Corporate programme are:-

Banks and non-bank intermediaries
Financial stability, insurance and pension companies
Bank supervision and regulation
Financial markets and economic activity
Risk management, monetary policy and central banking
Behavioural corporate finance and financial intermediation
Fintech, big data and machine learning
Corporate governance, capital structure, dividend and payout structure
Corporate control and going public
Finance and labour
Financial innovation, mergers and acquisitions

While aiming to maintain the two strands of Financial Economics separate to the extent possible, CEPR recognises that some researchers are active in areas relevant for BCF and AP programmes. For this reason, Fellows and Affiliates in the BCF programme will also receive calls for papers and other communications by the AP programme, for a time.

Annual Symposia

BCF Symposium

The new BCF Symposium will take place annually from 2024.
In 2023 the BCF Group will support the Bocconi - BAFFI CAREFIN - CEPR Workshop On Financial Intermediation and Corporate Finance.

ESSFM – Corporate Finance Week

Fellows and Affiliates in the BCF programme will meet annually at the European Summer Symposium in Financial Markets (ESSFM). Hosted by the Studienzentrum Gerzensee since 1991, ESSFM includes daily seminars in which participants present their work, as well as less formal seminars scheduled at the beginning of the Symposium. ESSFM is held over two weeks, one of which concentrates on some recent development in corporate finance.

A substantial amount of time is reserved for independent work and collaborative research, which provides participants with a unique opportunity to interact and discuss each other's research. In addition, every Symposium features 'focus sessions', concentrating on the latest developments at the frontier within a specific area of research.

Asset Pricing

The Asset Pricing programme brings together researchers interested in all areas of asset pricing and related strands of research.

CEPR has a long history of promoting research in financial economics. The Financial Economics programme has recently split in two; Asset Pricing (AP) and Banking and Corporate Finance (BCF), to provide more targeted conferences and interactions.

The key areas covered by the Asset Pricing programme are:-

Capital markets, macro-finance, international finance, portfolio choice and individual investor decisions
Asset management, information, and liquidity in asset markets
Asset market frictions
Limits to arbitrage and behavioural finance
Machine learning and AI in asset markets

While aiming to maintain the two strands of Financial Economics separate to the extent possible, CEPR recognises that some researchers are active in areas relevant for AP and BCF programmes. For this reason, Fellows and Affiliates in the AP programme will also receive calls for papers and other communications by the BCF programme, for a time.

Annual Symposia

AP Symposium

The new AP Symposium will take place annually in Paris. The Symposium is similar in spirit to the NBER Summer Institute, and it promotes high-quality research and facilitates interactions between Fellows and Affiliates in the AP Programme and researchers worldwide. Please keep an eye out for the first call for papers.

ESSFM – Asset Pricing Week

Fellows and Affiliates in the AP programme will meet annually at the European Summer Symposium in Financial Markets (ESSFM). Hosted by the Studienzentrum Gerzensee since 1991, ESSFM includes daily seminars in which participants present their work, as well as less formal seminars scheduled at the beginning of the Symposium.
